What is Ancient Chronicle?
With ultimate goal to keep BIONICLE fans interested in BIONICLE, Ancient Chronicle is an open source Bionicle Multimedia project, by the fan organization know as Mata Nui Inc. Anyone, from anywhere, can drop his ideas or suggestions about the project, including story ideas.
While many projects focus on existing storyline and future one, Ancient Chronicle is the first project to focus on the years of Spherus Magna and it's inhabitants, well before the Core War. Five canon-strict story serials, which still remain in the fanon Sphere will be written, dedicated to landmarks in Spherus Magna's history. Nevertheless, five epics with fancy graphics are not enough to attract the fan's attention, that's why half of Ancient Chronicle made of Media. The media are way of spreading the story furhter away, while providing extra info and tips, such as set instructions and wallpapers for all famous devices, while 3D Animated clips provide extra material. Audiobooks and eBooks, provide wide spreading of the story serials allowing anyone from anywhere to read them. Lastly, a multi-voiced acted podcast, will also be included.

The Story Serials are first composed by a team of writers, which actually write each chapter, while they themselves have created it.
