Ta-Metru

Ta-Metru (Fire District or Fire City in Matoran) was the one of the six Metru in Metru Nui. It was filled with factories and forges, which were used to mold and manufacture Protodermis sent from Ga-Metru. The Protodermis was then shipped to Po-Metru and Le-Metru, but some remained in Ta-Metru so they could make Kanoka and then Kanohi out of Kanoka. The Vahki that protected this Metru were Nuurakh, but they were all destroyed during the Great Cataclysm, those few Vahki that did survive were vanquished later by the Visorak. The Great Furnance was long ago sabotaged by the King Root in the conflict of the Toa Metru vs. the Morbuzahk. Vakama called the the time just prior to the the Toa Metru "The time of my kind; the Mask Makers." Kanoka disks and Kanohi masks were in incredible demand, and the greatest mask-makers (such as Vakama), were swamped with orders and contracts from all over the city. The most exceptional of the craft received contracts from Turaga Dume himself.

It was later abandoned after Spherus Magna was reformed.
