Ga-Wahi was one of the six regions of Mata Nui. It represented the element of Water and was home to Ga-Matoran. Most of what was considered Ga-Wahi was underwater, but there were grasslands and beaches in the western half of it, ultimately touching the Mangai and Mount Ihu.
History
Minutes after the Great Cataclysm, Ga-Wahi formed as a part of Mata Nui. Several days later, the Toa Metru arrived in search of a new home for the Matoran of Metru Nui. Nokama decided Ga-Wahi would be a suitable place for the Ga-Matoran - the large amount of water made it reminiscent of Ga-Metru.
Later, the Visorak on Metru Nui drove several Rahi from that city to the island of Mata Nui, including several to Ga-Wahi. Eventually the Toa Metru returned with the amnesiac Matoran of Metru Nui, became Turaga, and started a new life on Mata Nui.
Nokama and her Ga-Matoran found a lake that they named after the late Toa Mangai Naho. There they built a village of lily pads that they called Ga-Koro, meaning "Water Village". They named the region itself Ga-Wahi, meaning "Water Region".
In 1 AGC, Teridax came to the island of Mata Nui and began infecting Rahi and using them to keep the Matoran from returning to Metru Nui. This went on for hundreds of years. In 1000 AGC, Gali and the other Toa Mata arrived on the island. Gali became Ga-Wahi's protector for the year she lived on Mata Nui.
After the Toa Mata defeated Teridax, he unleashed the Bohrok onto the island. The Bohrok had originally been purposed to clear the camouflaging flora when the Great Spirit destroyed the island upon leaving the planet he was currently observing from. However, they had now been awakened when they were not intended to and began to destroy Ga-Wahi and the other regions of the island even while there were still living beings in it. Eventually, the Toa Mata sent the Bohrok swarms back to sleep.
After the coming of the seventh Toa and the rediscovery of Metru Nui, Ga-Wahi was abandoned as the Matoran left for Metru Nui. When the Toa Nuva later freed the Bohrok swarms so they could do their job at the right time, Ga-Wahi was laid bare. A few days later, when the Great Spirit Mata Nui was finally awakened and stood up, Ga-Wahi fell off of his face and into the Endless Ocean, destroying it.
Geography
Ga-Wahi was the smallest region of Mata Nui because the majority of it was underwater. Notable features include:
Ga-Wahi was mostly inhabited by Ga-Matoran. It was also inhabited by several species of Rahi, mostly aquatic. These include Dermis Turtles, Hoi, Tarakava, Takea, Ruki, Keras, Lightfish, Razorfish, Razor Whales, Cave Fish, Gadunka, Makuta Fish, Proto Drakes, Waikiru, and at least one Great Temple Squid.
