Mask of Time (Generation 2)

The Mask of Time, known long ago as the Vahi, was an extremely powerful Mask of Power on the island of Okoto.

History
The Mask of Time is said to have existed before the island of Okoto itself, even before the stars in the sky. It is unknown exactly where it came from, but is also said to be the upper half of a larger Mask. Where the lower half is is unknown.

Once Okoto was created, the Mask was found by the first Mask Makers and Protectors and the Temple of Time was constructed for it, being kept safely in a vault for whenever they have need of it's power.

After Ekimu saw the Elemental Creatures at the Festival of Masks he traveled to the Temple with the ancient Protectors to use the Mask to try and learn what the sighting of the Elemental entities meant. The Mask granted him flashes of a horrific cataclysm that was to befall the island showed him the six Elemental Masters - the Toa.

Thousands of years later, long after the cataclysm the Mask foretold, Skull Spiders besieged the island and, desperate for help, the modern Protectors used the Vahi to summon the Toa, as was instructed in the Prophecy of Heroes, which Ekimu spoke after he had been cast into an endless sleep.

Powers
The Mask of Time is imbued with the power of time itself, and is the most powerful Mask of Power on the island.

Among its many obscure powers is the power of clairvoyance, granting its user the ability to see glimpses into the future. It does not, however, explain what it shows.
