Content

The Toa Mata's Toa Canisters are falling from the skies above Aqua Magna. They hit the surface of the water and begin to drift in the waves.

The scene changes to a birds-eye view of Mata Nui, and scenes of the some of the different Wahi of Mata Nui. The animation then returns to the canisters, which have now begun to navigate their way towards the island

Organic birds circle above a Toa Canister beached on the Papa Nihu Reef's shore. One of the birds lands on the canister and begins to tap it with its beak. Suddenly, the canister begins to release steam and the bird, frightened, flies away. The top of the canister blasts off and scattered elements explode upon the sand. One of the pieces' claws begin to twitch and start to assemble the other elements together. Gears grind against each other as the pieces become a hunched figure. The last element, a mask, is seized by the being's claws, analyzed for a brief second and placed forcefully upon its face. The being's eyes light up with a green glow and he makes his way inland.
