Raid of Artakha

From BIONICLEsector01, working on 1,405 articles.

"Teridax wanted a subtle operation, a few Rahkshi, that's all. Kojol, at his peril, chose to ignore this. He assembled a strike force of Visorak, Rahkshi, and even a few Exo-Toa, intending to overwhelm any defenses on the island with one crushing blow. It didn't quite work out that way."

[carve] Summary

1,500 years before the Great Cataclysm, the Brotherhood of Makuta launched a strike force, led by Makuta Kojol, to steal the Mask of Light from Artakha. Despite orders to make it a small operation, Kojol unleashed an armada of Rahkshi, Exo-Toa, and Visorak upon the island. When the Visorak attempted to secure the beach, Crystal Serpents destroyed them all with concentrated solar rays. The next wave of Rahkshi, although at first successful, fell to the power of the island. By that time, though, Exo-Toa had deployed and defeated all opposition. Kojol then entered the fortress to take the Avohkii. Despite the various traps and raging blizzard controlled by Artakha, he managed to escape with the mask.

[carve] Aftermath

Shortly after the battle was over, all of the Rahkshi involved in the battle were mysteriously killed on a mission. Then, the Exo-Toa disappeared in the middle of the night. Finally, while visiting Xia, Kojol's armor was destroyed by a Protosteel eating virus. His essence was then destroyed in a furnace.

All of the deaths were carried out by the Order of Mata Nui as they eliminated all beings who knew the location of the island of Artakha by request of Artakha himself.
