2) Since I never wrote that chapter, I don't know how they specifically escaped. As for the second part of your question, Bota Magna is part of Spherus Magna, so no migration was necessary.
Ok,thanks.
Also,what happened to the MU robot after it was evacuated?

1. Is the process of rebuilding a Matoran while it's still alive painful?

3. How come the Matoran of Voya Nui did not think of rebuilding themselves following Karzahni's shoddy workmanship?
4. Do Matoran usually remember having been rebuilt?
5. What is being rebuilt by Karzahni like as opposed to a Matoran doing it him/herself?
In addition, I have one or two other unrelated questions:
1. Would Human scientists consider protodermis to be a seperate element on the periodic table if they knew of its existence?
2. Most organic life is "carbon based". Given that protodermis is an element, do you think that Matoran would be considered to be "protodermis based" life, or, are they more of a mix of protodermis based and carbon based life? (According to weird science fiction of course XD).
3. Would antidermis be considered to be a unique element on the periodic table, again assuming human scientists knew of its existence?
4. Does that make the Makuta species "Antidermis based" life?
Buried again it seems.

Broken up to be used for shelters and other things the civilization needs.

11) I disagree. To me, boredom is just laziness under another name, and I don't see there being a lot of lazy Matoran. There is always more work to do. And why would you need danger and fear to not be bored? I am happy to say there is no danger or fear in my life at present, and I am never bored. It's called "having hobbies."

1) No
2) If a mechanical portion has to be removed, the muscle tissue can be made to disengage and retract on its own. The mechanical pieces are then replaced with bigger ones and correspondingly bigger muscle tissue grows to attach it.
3) Because the Voya Nui sets did not look like rebuilt Matoran
4) Yes
5) A Matoran will go slowly and carefully with an eye toward being better at the end. Karzahni does not go slowly or carefully and more often than not his subjects are not better in the end, they're worse.
1) Yes. Like the transuranic elements, protodermis is an element artificially produced.
2) Hmmm. The first thing that popped into my head in what are protodermis molecules made up of?
3) Yes
4) See answer to #2
Was Teridax talking to himself in this scene?
And if so, how did he manage to appear as both glowing red eyes, and Turaga Dume at the same time?

There was a scene from Bionicle 2: Legends of Metru Nui that still confuses me. In the scene, Teridax, disguised as Turaga Dume, enters a chamber in the coliseum that appears have some sort of fountain, with 2 giant crystals in it. When he approaches it, a pair of glowing red eyes, presumably Teridax's, appears and tells him "The mask of time is not yet completed." Teridax replies with "Oh. But, when the shadow falls, the Vahki will ensure every matoran's fate".

He was talking to a mirror. And the red eyes were basically "moviemaker's license" as a way of revealing there was an evil force behind everything without flat out saying it was him.
That... is actually a really good theory! "11) Well, I have a more specific theory: for sapient beings, there is the possibility of boredom.

All right, I am BACK.
1) Why were Av-Matoran chosen to become Bohrok insted of the GBs making Bohrok seperately?
2) Also, how were they (Av-Matoran) transformed?
3) Why were krana needed to power Bohrok instead of the Av-Matoran retaining sentience as Bohrok?
4)How are krana made, and what are they made from?
5) When the Toa Nuva lose their elemental powers, why do their masks turn grey is they have no connection the their elements?
6) How was Takunuva larger in the events of 2008?
7) Also, how were Takunuva and Gresh both made smaller in 2010?
8) Are the Great Beings a seperate species, or are they closer to Glatorian?
9) How do beings in the MU know what the Great Beings are, or know the species exists?
10) In the Hero Factory book The Doom Box (written by you) what species do the Doom Box creators belong to?
11) What species is Akiyama Makuro part of?
12) At the end of Brain Attack, what happens to th brains underneath Hero Factory?
13) At the end of Invasion From Below, what happens to the Jumper cocoon inside the Hero craft, and how di it get there?
14) How do the Great Beings create Mata Nui's spirit, and give sentience to the residents of the MU?
15) Are Mata Nui and the Makuta species as humans are to monkeys, what I mean is, are they similiar enough to be considered 'brothers'?
16) Are the Piraka animations canon?
17) Is Gold Good Guy Turaga Lhikan?
18) Besides Gold Good Guy, what are they Good Guy and Bod Guy series supposed to represent?
19) Why is Nektann so short compared to the Piraka?
20) Why are the Av-Matoran of 2008 so small compared to other Matoran?
21) What purpose does Metru Nui serve, and how does it do it?
Once again, thank you for your time, I await you answer.
Hello again Greg, I have a few more questions.
1. If you could meet any one Bionicle character (without the threat of them hurting you if they're a villain ), who would you pick?
2. Does Velika's original body still exist, or was it destroyed when he transferred his consciousness?
3. Do you think Velika will try to obtain a better body to replace the decrepit Po-Matoran one?
4. Do you think the Great Beings have been asleep/in stasis the past 100,000 years, or are they still active?
5. Did the Great Beings have in mind a purpose for Mata Nui after he restored Sphereus Magna?
6. Do you know anything about the cancelled 2005 webcomic that involved the "fate of Turaga Dume"?
7. What will the Bahrag do now that Mata Nui is gone and they have no purpose?
8. Serious question: if you took all of Teridax's antidermis and divided it into two equal halves, would both halves regenerate into a new Teridax?

1) It was faster to do it that way than have to build a whole new array of beings
2) It's a natural part of their bodies' programming
3) There wasn't an easy way to have the Matoran retain their intelligence after the transformation and the GBs were in a time crunch. Krana were the alternative.
4) Not something I care to reveal
5) We have seen that Toa masks are normally gray until they are donned. When the Toa lose their elemental powers, the masks do not react the way they would to being put on by a Toa, because there are no elemental energies to react to.
6) Same reason the Av-Matoran were larger -- the energies of Karda Nui
7) Once you leave Karda Nui, the effects of the energies reverse themselves. For the most part, though, 2010 was a set thing, not a story thing.
8) I believe I answered this already, but I can't remember what I said
8) Ok. I belive you said Glatorian when I looked back through the questions.
