After being shoved through a Matoran-sized portal by a being named Morotok, Ihu expected to be in a city. Instead, he found himself in a forest. Trees were packed up all around him, and the leaves blocked out most of the sunlight. Then Ihu realised it was very early in the morning, and that the suns hadn't risen yet. As he got to his feet, Ihu saw a red-armoured Toa in a small clearing. He looked like he was attending to wounds, so Ihu ran over to see if he could help. Then he saw what it really was-a Toa Hordika preparing for battle.
