Chapter 1
As I, Parakio, recall the events happening over the past 100 millenia, I know that it is a really good feeling to be alive. Knowing all the death I've seen, I can only hope that I will be alive when I'm finished carving this record.

So, where to begin... maybe 50,000 years ago... yes. Back then I was a stubborn little Makuta. I was a novice at Rahi creation, but oh yes, it was good times. You see, my friend Jakkan was alive, and a busy Rahi maker. Teridax, our leader, was planning The Plan, and I... was assigned guard duty on the island of Visorak. Yes, that's right: Visorak. It really was no fun there, with all those endless plains and hills... no Rahi to be found, only Matoran in the village of Fe-Koro. Matoran of Iron, the Fe-Matoran, lived here, and they spent most of their time in their workshops. Inventing.

No threats there, I thought, so why put me as guard there? Well, Teridax knew there would be a disaster. A disaster named Toa.

Yes, a Toa of Iron had been created, and his name was Emnerk. I was extremely angry to know I had been pitted against him in battle, not to mention he had an army of little Matoran with him. I had no Rahi.

So I fled to Destral, our homeland. "Please, Teridax, send someone else!" I cried. I knew Miserix was technically the leader of the Brotherhood, but Teridax was second-in-command and a popular leader.

Teridax thought for a moment. "Very well, Parakio... but be prepared for a life as... an assistant."

I didn't know what that meant. I didn't WANT to know what it meant. But in a matter of minutes, Teridax had escorted, or rather, dragged, me into Chirox' Rahi hive. "Good news, Chirox, you have a new assistant at Rahi creating."

Chirox looked me up and down. "Who, him? He only created one Rahi: a Nelx! Those things were a worse failure than.. than..."

"Silence!" roared Teridax. "You will take him on as your apprentice! Or would you rather fight a Toa of Iron?"

Chirox got the hint. Which meant that from that day on, I would help one of our best Rahi creators in the lab. I told you life was good back then.
