Frequently asked questions
- Who is Ehrye in BIONICLE?
- Ehrye was a Ko-Matoran errand-runner active in the Knowledge Towers of Ko-Metru and one of the six Matoran finders of a Great Disk. He worked as a messenger for the seers and apprentices of the towers, carrying tablets, messages, and small instruments between them.
- How did Ehrye learn the location of the Ko-Metru Great Disk?
- In the course of his deliveries, Ehrye read a tablet stored in one of the upper levels of a tower that recorded the location of the Ko-Metru Great Disk: inside an icicle hanging from one of the highest Knowledge Towers. The disk was a power-nine Kanoka of dodge effect, the only one of its grade in the district.
- What happened when Ehrye tried to sell the Great Disk's location to Ahkmou?
- Ehrye arranged to meet at a chute station to collect payment, but the figure waiting was not Ahkmou but the Dark Hunter Nidhiki, who demanded the disk's location. Ehrye refused, having realized the Great Disks were the key to defeating the Morbuzakh, and Nidhiki trapped him under a deliberately stacked pile of blocks arranged to crush him if a rescue misjudged the structure.
- How was Ehrye rescued?
- Nuju, the Toa Metru of Ice, found a tablet in Ehrye's quarters pointing toward the chute station, followed the trail confirmed by the chute attendant, and located Ehrye under the block trap, freeing him without bringing the structure down on him. Ehrye then reported what he had learned to the assembled Toa Metru at the Great Temple.
- What happened to Ehrye in the end?
- Ehrye merged with the other finders into the Matoran Nui at the Great Furnace, was sealed in a Matoran Sphere by Vahki, and was evacuated to Mata Nui, where his memories and elemental connection were drained. He later returned to Metru Nui, and following Teridax's death and the reformation of Spherus Magna, he migrated to the new world.
