Origins and the road to Mahri Nui#

Reysa's recorded life began on an unidentified island in the Matoran UniverseMatoran UniverseA civilization of biomechanical beings living inside a colossal robot, destroyed when Teridax seized control., where he lived until his TuragaTuragaFormer Toa who fulfilled their destiny and transformed into leaders.

The repair was unsuccessful. Under the standing policy of the realm overlord, failed repair cases were not returned to their original islands but were exiled instead to the Southern ContinentThe Southern ContinentThe Southern Continent was a vast landmass beneath the Matoran Universe, scarred by Voya Nui's separation and held under Makuta Mutran's nominal dominion., and Reysa was among the MatoranMatoranThe most abundant species in the Matoran Universe, chosen by Mata Nui to inhabit and maintain his cosmic body. dispatched under that policy. He carried the worse form KarzahniKarzahniBionicle reused one cursed name three times, and every instance earns it, this is the article that finally untangles all three.'s method had produced and the standing exile from his home island for the rest of his life.

On the Southern ContinentThe Southern ContinentThe Southern Continent was a vast landmass beneath the Matoran Universe, scarred by Voya Nui's separation and held under Makuta Mutran's nominal dominion. Reysa joined a group of other MatoranMatoranThe most abundant species in the Matoran Universe, chosen by Mata Nui to inhabit and maintain his cosmic body. who had settled in a city built on the coast. During the Great CataclysmThe Great CataclysmThe day Makuta Teridax put the Great Spirit to sleep, the Great Spirit Robot fell from the sky, Metru Nui flooded, and Voya Nui tore loose from the Southern Continent., the chunk of land on which the city stood was blasted onto the surface as part of the rising island that became Voya NuiVoya NuiAn island born from catastrophe and hiding the universe's most powerful artifact, Voya Nui was everything Bionicle 2006 promised: danger, mystery, and a race against time.. The displacement carried Reysa into the new island's small MatoranMatoranThe most abundant species in the Matoran Universe, chosen by Mata Nui to inhabit and maintain his cosmic body. population.

The further detachment of the coastal portion of Voya NuiVoya NuiAn island born from catastrophe and hiding the universe's most powerful artifact, Voya Nui was everything Bionicle 2006 promised: danger, mystery, and a race against time., and the sinking of that portion to the seafloor, completed the move.

The Hydruka Guards and the airweed harvest#

The survival of Mahri NuiMahri NuiA matoran settlement that sank, survived, and was ultimately crushed beneath Voya Nui, leaving behind one of Bionicle's most poignant lost civilizations. depended on a recurring exchange between the city's air bubble and the Fields of AirThe Fields of AirThe cultivated airweed beds on the seabed beside the sunken town of Mahri Nui, harvested by Hydruka under Matoran supervision to sustain the air dome that kept the settlement alive. that surrounded it. The airweedAirweedThe underwater plant of the Fields of Air whose trapped bubbles let the Matoran of Mahri Nui breathe beneath the southern ocean. of the fields contained trapped air that could be released by harvest, and the harvest was conducted by herds of HydrukaHydrukaAquatic scorpion-like Rahi domesticated by the Matoran of Mahri Nui to harvest Airweed, and the natural prototype for the Air Launcher weapon., aquatic scorpion-like RahiRahiThe Rahi were the biomechanical wildlife of the Matoran Universe, built largely by the Brotherhood of Makuta, ranging from background fauna to engineered war beasts. native to the PitThe PitThe Order of Mata Nui's maximum-security underwater prison where the Barraki warlords were held until catastrophe broke their chains. that had been tamed by the local MatoranMatoranThe most abundant species in the Matoran Universe, chosen by Mata Nui to inhabit and maintain his cosmic body. for the work. The HydrukaHydrukaAquatic scorpion-like Rahi domesticated by the Matoran of Mahri Nui to harvest Airweed, and the natural prototype for the Air Launcher weapon. could naturally sense which plants in the fields were airweedAirweedThe underwater plant of the Fields of Air whose trapped bubbles let the Matoran of Mahri Nui breathe beneath the southern ocean. and which were ordinary seaweed, an instinct that no MatoranMatoranThe most abundant species in the Matoran Universe, chosen by Mata Nui to inhabit and maintain his cosmic body. shepherd could replicate by direct observation, and the herding of the RahiRahiThe Rahi were the biomechanical wildlife of the Matoran Universe, built largely by the Brotherhood of Makuta, ranging from background fauna to engineered war beasts. during the safe hour at the fields was therefore the irreducible practical foundation of the city's air supply.

Guards. The two recorded names in the role were Reysa and KyrehxKyrehxKyrehx is a blue Ga-Matoran of the water element, though that power remains inaccessible to her. She serves as a Hydruka Guard and carries claws and blades. She resides on Spherus Magna., a Ga-MatoranGa-MatoranThe Water-element Matoran of Ga-Metru and Ga-Koro, exclusively female, who taught the schools of Metru Nui and crewed the boats and bridges of the Mata Nui coast. who became one of the central figures in the events that followed the loss of her counterpart. The job combined the patient work of herding stubborn RahiRahiThe Rahi were the biomechanical wildlife of the Matoran Universe, built largely by the Brotherhood of Makuta, ranging from background fauna to engineered war beasts. with the dangerous discipline of operating just outside the city's main air bubble, where the airweedAirweedThe underwater plant of the Fields of Air whose trapped bubbles let the Matoran of Mahri Nui breathe beneath the southern ocean. grew and where the predators of the deep water gathered.

Reysa's recorded temperament was ill-suited to the second discipline. He was an impatient MatoranMatoranThe most abundant species in the Matoran Universe, chosen by Mata Nui to inhabit and maintain his cosmic body., and the HydrukaHydrukaAquatic scorpion-like Rahi domesticated by the Matoran of Mahri Nui to harvest Airweed, and the natural prototype for the Air Launcher weapon. themselves were ill-tempered RahiRahiThe Rahi were the biomechanical wildlife of the Matoran Universe, built largely by the Brotherhood of Makuta, ranging from background fauna to engineered war beasts. whose natural pace did not respond to hurry. The combination produced exactly the kind of MatoranMatoranThe most abundant species in the Matoran Universe, chosen by Mata Nui to inhabit and maintain his cosmic body. shepherd most likely to leave the safety of the bubble margin in pursuit of a faster conclusion to the day's herding.

Death at the Fields of Air#

The investigation took him outside the safe perimeter of the herding ground and away from the air supply of the city's bubble.

He stayed outside too long.
