81) Last I recall, the Nuva had it

92) Lhikan would have been given a Hau

 

103) Since I didn't write that chapter, I don't have info on how. I would have decided it when I wrote the chapter.

 

114) The story is frozen where it left off.

 

125) We know Dume played some role in Lhikan becoming a Toa, but it was never stated that he gave his power up for Lhikan. There are many other ways he could have been involved.

1How did makuta come back every time?

2Since Makuta's antidermis can live for a brief time, at least, outside of his body, it wouldn't matter if his body was crushed as long as he had enough forewarning to get out of the body in time.

1Hi Greg, could you answer some questions for me

 

21. Earlier you said that the Great Beings weren't a separate species, but rather a title. Does this mean that they are Agori/ Glatorian?

 

32. Was Helryx ever a Matoran?

 

43. Was it ever revealed what function Zakaz had in the Great Spirit Robot?

 

54. When was it decided that Makuta would take over the MU at the end of 2008?

 

65. About how many Toa were left in the Universe at the end of the story?

 

7Thank you Smile

81) I always saw them as more like Glatorian than Agori.

92) No

 

103) No

 

114) When the decision was made to wake up Mata Nui, which would have been probably in 2005 or 2006.

 

125) I don't recall off the top of my head

1Did the Turaga know that using the Toa Stones would summon the Toa Mata? If so, why did they wait 1000 years? Earlier you said that the 1000 years on Mata Nui were the truce between Vakama and Makuta, but wasn't the truce only for 1 year, and for the other 999 Makuta attacked the villages with infected rahi? Though it was stated that these attacks weren't earnest, just enough to keep them scared and away from Metru Nui.

 

2Could it be truce was that Makuta would not make legitimate attacks on the Matoran, for as long as the Turaga would not summon the Toa? This theory has a legitimate basis, as the Turaga had Takua gather the Toa Stones after an increase in Rahi attacks. It would make sense for Makuta to do this, as he would want the Toa Mata to come eventually, and that time makes sense as it would be relatively shortly before Mata Nui would die, and his plan would come to fruition.

 

3What do you think? Is this a good explaination, or did something different happen? 

41) No, they didn't. They created those stones with an eye toward using them to make future Toa. And yes, you are correct, the truce was for a year.

52) No. Like I said, the canon is that they created the stones to someday make more Toa and hid them around the island. There is nothing in story to indicate that they knew the stones would summon the Toa canisters. In truth, the stones should not have been needed - the canisters had been launched long before, but malfunctioned. If they hadn't, the Toa would have gotten to Mata Nui roughly 1000 years before.

1I have a question regarding the Matoran language. Most of the commuity assumes the name of the mask is its power, like for "Kanohi Kakama" "Kanohi" = "mask", "Kakama" = "speed". But if that is true then "Iden" would mean "spirit", but "Mata" is supposed to mean "Spirit", as "Mata Nui" is "Great Spirit" in Matoran and "Nui" means "Great". And then "Garai" would mean "gravity", even though the Matoran prefix for "gravity" is "Ba-". As well, "Avsa" would mean "hunger", but the Rahkshi of hunger is named "Vorahk" and the Kraata of Hunger's prefix is "Vo-", which is also the Matoran prefix for "Lightning". This seems very contradictory. Is there an explanation? Thanks again for answering fan questions!


2Well, if I was pressed, I would say that "Iden" could just as easily refer to what the mask does -- freeing the spirit -- rather than just "spirit." Remember that English translations of Matoran are not always literal.

 

3Yeah, I guess that makes sense. I know words in other languages have multiple english translations. I have another question:

4The Piraka Thok, Vezok, Hakaan, and Reidak use weapons that channel their elemental powers. Who made them? It seems like Skakdi would have trouble making advanced weapons, as most of their weaponsare very crude. And very few people would want to give Skakdi more power than their power and vision power, except Vortixx or Dark Hunters

5Why do you assume they are advanced weapons? A weapon that channels elemental power is just a conduit, it is not generating the power itself.

 

1 Hello Greg 1- Would a Kanohi Kadin(mask of flight) be made from a flight disk ? 2- Do you like video games Greg ? 2.1 - if yes, what is your favorite series ?

6To my memory, any old weapon can channel elemental power, though I may be wrong.

8Well Greg, what you think if there was ever a story of an alternate universe where the canisters didn't malfunction?Thinking I think it would neat to see the Toa Mata and the Toa Metru together and still knowing what was really going on.😃HappyConfusedtarry_eyed:Thumbs upHeart

12Hmmmm...!Thinking So are you saying that elemental conduit weapons such as those carried by those Piraka and also by Toa can (at least sometimes) be very crude/primitive weaponry that can be easy enough for even a savage to make?

21) Why do many entities (Matoran, Turaga ect.) Need to wear masks?

 

32) If the toa Mata were created in case Mata nui ever fell asleep, that seems like a pretty random thing for the Great Beings to consider. Did they have some sort of clarvoyent powers or do they just have a special toa team in place for every possible situation?

 

43) Every Matoran on Metru Nui knew Lhikan, so it can be assumed that they knew about his team as well, since Nidhiki seemed to be a major toa there for a while too. Why then do none of the Toa Metru or Tehutti and friends recognize the name when Ahkmou called out four legged Nidhiki? 

 

54) Is there any significant reason as to why there are genders for these beings aside from asthetic? Since they are built by machines, are there any difference between the genders, like different chemicals or something in them to warrent making them distinctly different? 

61) Why do so many electronic devices need batteries?

72) They were building a huge, sophisticated machine. Huge, sophisticated machines can break down. This is like saying you had to be a clairvoyant to know autos would require mechanics at some point.

 

83) Because he looked nothing like the Nidhiki they knew. If you had a best friend named Sam, and one day a giant toad shows up called Sam, would you automatically assume that's your friend?

 

94) There are psychological differences between the genders.

103. Then what about Tuyet? Surely she would have been remembered, oh and how did Lhikan know it was Nidhiki?

113) He knew Nidhiki more then the Matoran, and Nidhiki called him brother, also, Lhikan knew Nidhiki went and joined the Dark Hunters, and had most likely meet mutated Nidhiki and Krekka before the second movie, as he knew Krekka's name.
