Shattered Ice
Bohrok Assault on Ko-Koro
By Takua
The fears of many Ko-Koronans were realized today when the Bohrok swarms made their first strike upon the secluded village of Ko-Koro.
“The arrival of the swarms was inevitable,” said Matoro, aid to the village’s Turaga, “but this does not lessen in force what it brings upon our village.”
Ko-Koro is found within a deep ravine, generally only accessible by a winding stairway down the icy, sheer rock face. The presence of the Bohrok here is a testament to the swarms' cleverness and persistence. If the Bohrok can reach Ko-Koro, then no place on the island is safe from their reach.
The presence of the Ta-Koronan Guard in the village was a deciding factor in the outcome of this first encounter. The Guard’s captain, Jaller, heroically brought down a beast and liberated its Krana. The Krana are vital to the Toa on their quest to defeat the Bohrok swarms, and even one, such as Jaller recovered, could prove critical.
“Should we meet Kopaka in our travels, we shall be certain to give him the parasite,” Jaller said, “but the Bohrok threat is far from leaving this place. It will be some time before we can begin to consider a safe departure.”
Although they may now be resting in a moment of peace, all of the Matoran in the village are left to fear the time when next the swarm will choose to strike, and the dangers the attack will bring.
