Terak and the other Elemental Creatures hid the Mask of Control in the Labyrinth of Control after it was lost by Makuta.
Onua later found Terak in an underground maze in the Region of Earth, and the two journeyed together for a time before joining their powers to create a bridge to the temple containing Onua's Golden Mask of Unity. Once Onua donned the mask, the two gained the ability to Unite, which they would later use in order to reach the Labyrinth so that the Toa could claim the mask. However, Umarak abducted Ketar and used its power to steal the mask.
Returning to the City of the Mask Makers, Terak and its fellows joined the Toa in battling the Elemental Beasts. After some time, Terak and Onua broke away from the battle to confer with Ekimu. Terak and the other Creatures were then left to fight alongside the Okotans without the Toa, who left to battle Umarak and succeeded in preventing the return of Makuta.
