"It is a village in the south, where the Le-Koronan Matoran live in trees. I have never been there. Onepu says there are tall, pretty forests, and huts built in the sky! Onepu says the Le-Koronans are great musicians, too, and play music all day long from the treetops."

[carve] History

Le-Koro's location was chosen by Toa Matau to house the sleeping Matoran population of Metru Nui. During the first journey of the Toa Metru to the island of Mata Nui, Matau conducted some exploring in the deep, dark jungles of the island. Lost and uncomfortable down in the jungle swamps, Matau decided to build the village in the treetops.

During the events of The Dark Time, Le-Koro was in the midst of onslaughts from a nearby nest of Nui-Rama wearing Makuta Teridax's Infected Kanohi. Toa Lewa's location at the time was unknown, leaving only the Gukko Force to defend the village. And many Le-Matoran had already been carried off by the Nui-Rama swarm.

Takua traveled to Le-Koro with the Onu-Matoran Taipu during this time. As they progressed to the village, a Nui-Rama carried Taipu off to the hive. The Le-Matoran were quietly hiding in their treetop village huts when Takua arrived, but the soon-to-be Chronicler summoned them by playing a flutesong as a signal. The Le-Matoran came down to great him, but before long, the Nui-Rama attacked the village. The Le-Matorn pilot Kongu asked Takua to fly with him and be his disk-throwing second. Takua accepted, and the duo flew, fighting all the way into the Rama hive. Inside the hive the team quickly found Turaga Matau, and most of the population of Le-Koro, forced to work for the Nui-Rama. Suddenly, Toa Lewa appeared and revealed himself to be wearing an infected Kanohi, and under control of Makuta Teridax. Fortunately, the Matoran of Le-Koro were rescued by Toa Onua after he freed Lewa from the control of Teridax.

When the Bohrok swarms were first awakened, the Nuhvok attacked and overran Le-Koro. Matau, and the Le-Matoran were all captured and given Krana in place of their Kanohi. As the slaves of the Bohrok queens, the Bahrag, they tricked Lewa and replaced his Golden Kanohi with a Krana. The treetop village itself was heavily damaged, and almost destroyed. Lewa and the population of Le-Koro were eventually freed of their Krana thanks to the efforts of Takua, Toa Onua, Nuparu, and his new creation, the Boxor. Following the Toa's defeat of the Bahrag, the village of Le-Koro was repaired with the help of the reprogrammed Bohrok.

The Matoran of Le-Koro soon got word that Ta-Koro was destroyed, and told Toa Lewa of it through drum playing, who then told Jaller and Takua.

The village has now been destroyed by the reawakened Bohrok in preparation for Mata Nui's awakening.

[carve] Landscape

The Le-Wahi treetops that Le-Koro was located on grow in Lake Kanae. The Le-Matoran lived in dangling huts which resembled bee hives, and some trees were flattened half-way up in order to build Kolhii Fields or a central area. Le-Koro is also famous for its "Treespeak".

Heavily damaged by the Bohrok during their first recorded awakening, the village was deserted since the Matoran returned to Metru Nui. The location has now been destroyed by the reawakened Bohrok swarms.
