Avatar Book 3 Fire Episode 13 - The Firebending Masters Episode Title:The Firebending Masters.Episode Description:Zuko tries to teach Aang how to firebend, but has lost his own ability to bend as he is no longer reliant on rage, the previous focus of his firebending. Toph suggests they learn from the original source of firebending, the mighty dragons. Iroh supposedly killed the last dragon long ago, but Zuko notes that the dragons first imparted their knowledge to the Sun Warriors, a now extinct people who were the genesis of the Fire Nation. Zuko and Aang travel to the ruins of the Sun Warrior civilization, where they discover a tribe of the fabled people still exist. The pair carry a sacred flame up to the mountain to meet the "Masters", who turn out to be a pair of surviving dragons. They perform the dragon dance, a series of firebending forms carved in the ruins, and the dragons explain that at its core firebending is a source of life, not destruction. The Sun Warriors reveal that Iroh had lied about the extinction of the dragons after receiving similar training, in order to protect the remaining members of the species from further hunts. Both Aang and Zuko begin to firebend again, stronger and more skillfully than before.
