Bionicle dream

Some time ago I had a dream about Bionicle, and wanted to draw it. To be clear, it wasn't '’the’’ dream, I never had one of those. In this dream, I went into the world of Bionicle.

So have a drawing of me and Nokama just walking :)

In that dream, I woke up in some ruined building in I’m guessing Ga-Metru. I think there was a hole in the ceiling, so maybe I fell through there? I for some reason was wearing clothes similar to those I drew in the picture, and had a wooden mask that was painted to resemble Kanohi Pakari.

Anyway, as I was laying confused in the rubble, Nokama came in. She stopped in her tracks when she saw me. We stared at each other confused for a few seconds, and then she finally asked ‘’What are you doing here???’’ And I was like ‘’Girl, I have noooo idea :I’’ My mind kinda skipped a few scenes, but I assume she asked me a lot more questions, and questioned who or what I am... ANYWAY, she ended up taking me on a trip to see Ga-Metru :] And she held my hand the whole dream. I, an almost 20 years old person, was led around like a child on a school trip by matoran Nokama 😭 lol

So I’m listening to Nokama talking about the city, and we’re stopped by no other than Whenua! He explained that he heard about a new weird Rahi in Ga-Metru and came to check it out. Well, I was that weird Rahi turns out lol. Nokama argued with him for a while since I can speak, understand everything they say, and I’m friendly and stuff... In the end he agreed that I’m not a threat or anything BUT WOOPS, someone called vahki on me :] And since both Nokama and Whenua were seen with me, and don’t really want me to be locked up, we raaan awaaaay We ran all the way to Ta-Metru, and ended up bumping into Vakama. So I made three people from the metru team meet prematurely somehow. He, of course, showered us with types of questions like ‘‘what the hell is that thing’' and, ‘‘what are you doing here, and why are you being chased’'. So we roped him in into that mess against his will, and let me tell you he was not happy xD

At some point we got cornered and were hiding behind some building. The three argued how they are supposed to hide me, and what would they even do with me after, and i just kinda stood there and looked at them. But while they argued, I think the floor beneath me broke, and I fell down. They tried to catch me but were too late, and as they screamed after me, I woke up :I If you’re wondering how I remembered all of this, the second I woke up, I lunged for my phone and noted all of this down. No way in hell am I forgetting this >:0 But yeah, it was a wild ride :v I worked on the drawing for a few weeks (university is to blame, I have no time for anything), and I don’t know if it’s presentable or not, but I don’t really care, it’s good enough for me.

I based the height difference on what I found on the internet, and the chart below. The proportions may look a little wonky, because the matoran have funny proportions, and it kinda doesn’t mesh well with my artstyle.

But hopefully it’s not that bad from your perspective 💀

BIONICLE is 20 years old this year!

I ask all my fellow BIONICLE fans to start waves on LEGO's social media pages for them to do something to commemorate the occasion, like rerelease some of their most beloved sets like they did for LEGO Star Wars' 20th Anniversary. Remind them that the original BIONICLE helped save them from bankruptcy and if they don't do anything it would be a huge disservice to the line and the fans that enjoyed BIONICLE all those years ago.
