Fire Lord Ozai Banished Zuko After Treating Him Poorly Most Of His Life
The story behind Zuko ’s deportation , as well as the terrible burn scar over his eye , was told by Uncle Iroh in theAvatar : The Last Airbenderseason 1 episode " The Storm . “A few years before the serial began , an enthusiastic young Zuko take Iroh if he could join in on a state of war council coming together , and Iroh took his nephew in with him with educational activity to stay on silent .
Failing to heed this warning , Zuko protest when a full general propose strategically sacrificing a unit of measurement of Fire body politic soldiers . Fire Lord Ozaipunished his boy by demand that he take part in an Agni Kai , a firebending trial by fight . Zuko concord , but when the trial start and he recognize his opposite was his begetter , he drip to his knees and pray pardon .

While the Agni Kai may have been the catalyst for Zuko ’s exile , the real understanding for the Fire Lord treat his son ( but not his daughter , Azula ) so dreadfully was n’t Zuko ’s fault at all . In theAvatar : The Last AirbendercomicThe Search , Zuko ’s quest to regain his lack mother , Ursa , discover some dark truths about why his beginner seems to hate him so much .
Fire Lord Ozai Punished Zuko To Hurt His Mother
At the end of the first issue ofThe Search , Zuko makes a shocking discovery : a alphabetic character in which Ursa tell that Ozai is not his literal founder , and that Zuko is in reality the son of her rightful sexual love , a homo called Ikem . If true , this piece of information would mean that Zuko is n’t the heir to the throne of the Fire Nation - Azula is . The contents of the alphabetic character attend over Zuko as he searches for Ursa to ask her the trueness , but in the final event , it ’s revealed that Ozai really is Zuko ’s father .
Zuko ’s mom was banished from the Fire Nation in Avatar : The Last Airbender and never experience in the show , but canon Avatar comics revealed Ursa ’s fate .
Fire Lord Ozai experience that Ikem could n’t possibly be Zuko ’s real father , since he ’d had spies succeed his married woman ever since they got married . In a flashback , Ozai confronts Ursa and demand to know why she rest .

alternatively of punishing Ursa directly , Ozai did something far worse . He made her wish come dead on target by treating Zuko as though he was an unlawful heirand told Ursa that every harsh word and injury visit on Zuko would therefore be her own shift . Though the Agni Kai extend a convenient excuse , this was the material reason why Zuko was exiled at the historic period of 13 .
Not only hadOzai add up to involve Zuko as a symbolization of his wife ’s defiance , he knew that by publically mutilating his son and barf him out , word of what had happened to Zuko would retrieve Ursa no matter where she had locomote after flee the Fire Nation Palace . Even years after his wife left , Ozai never stopped punishing Zuko for bruise her . This unwrap in the comic only made Ozai ’s harshness inAvatar : The Last Airbendereven more seeming .
