The Legends of Duskua Nui

The Substitute Toa
As the Toa Nuva flew high into the air, they came to a bunch of floating islands, flying high in the sky. The largest of them, they landed on and asked about the islands. The turaga then confronted them and began their tale. They told that their island was named Duskua Nui, after the Great Being of Twilight. They then told of the story of how it was originally called Villa Nui, meaning Great Island of Weather. This began their story of how two beings fought to have power over Villa Nui: Zordia Nui, the Great being of Night, and Duskua Nui. As they fought, Villa Nui broke into many islands due to their fight. As they fought, the matoran of each island grew worried without toa to protect them. Each island had different types of matoran, except Villa Nui, the biggest, which was home to the six main types of matoran. They began to make vehicles that would allow them to fly, but also change to let them travel on land as well, depending on their type. They were the first Substitute Toa, as they defended the island from rahi. Soon, the other islands were developing their own Substitute Toa and giving themselves nicknames. This began the age of Substitute Toa.

Zordia Nui's Rise and Fall
After many years of the Substitute Toa, six toa were sent to Villa Nui:
 * Leko - Toa of Fire
 * Capri - Toa of Water
 * Tori - Toa of Earth
 * Aelo - Toa of Air
 * Sagus - Toa of Stone
 * Libran - Toa of Ice

Each were sent by a being that was looking after Villa Nui as Zordia Nui and Duskua Nui fought. They looked after the matoran on Villa Nui. After many many years of this, however, the fight between Zordia Nui and Duskua Nui ended. Zordia Nui had won. But he was part of the BOM, and now he would turn the whole Bionicle World into night, to boost all makutas' power. Capri, hearing this, asked the Le-Matoran, Virlo, to tell her brothers of this news. On his arrival to Sagus, Libran and Aelo, he was carried away by Libran and Sagus...
