Fragmented Universe

Spirit is a rare Legendary Element that only exists in two known locations: the Matoran Universe and Akata in the Fragmented Universe.

History

The Element of Spirit was created early in the history of the Fragmented Universe, during the struggle against the Dark Shadow. It was used to severely lower the Dark Shadow's spirit energy, making her easier to defeat. When the Great Beings set to destroy the element, deeming it too powerful and too dangerous to keep, some of it leaked into the same Protodermis pool that the Matoran creating machines were being crafted from, and Ess-Matoran were rarely made.
