And here begins the story of an ancient stone, and all those who fought over it. This is one of many stories contained in the orbs of memory, and it goes like this:
The stone was shrouded in mystery, appearing in legends across the universe, from Bara Magna, to Mata Nui. It was said to hold the fate of the universe inside it.
The universe at the time of the start of this chronical was at peace. After completing his mission, Mata Nui landed on Bara Magna, much to the surprise of the Agori and Glatorian inhabinets, who weren't exactly used to having giant robots landing in their desert every day.
Some Matoran and Toa stayed inside Mata Nui, but many left the titanic robot. Mata Nui then helped restore Bara Magna and its two moons back into Spherus Magna, and the toa helped the inhabinets to restore life to the barren desert.
Then, Mata Nui left.
A relatively large number of Mata Nui's former inhabinets remained on Spherus Magna, including a toa named Echrive, and a turaga he looked up to for wisdom.
This is the tale of Echrive, Spherus Magna, and the fate of the whole entire universe...
And the first of many contained in the orbs of memory.
Deep within the fog of the multiverse.
