When I first went searching for the Master of Fire to be my ninja, the absolute last thing I expected was to find a young Kitsune - fox hybrid - hidden in the far reaches of Mokilea, the Hybrid City. In fact, I initially started my search in Ignacia, a small village by the forest populated mostly by farmers and warriors, where the previous Master lived. However, when I arrived in Ignacia, I was shocked to find it had long since been deserted; the reason for this, I still do not know.

I started walking in the direction of the Monastery but got lost in the forest. It took a while, but I finally came across civilization - my hopes were soon diminished, however, when I realized it was merely a collection of various creatures: foxes, bears, deer, birds, even a few cats here and there. I was curious, though, so I stepped forward a few feet.

Before I could enter, I was stopped by a pair of ferocious growling wolves, who morphed into humans and asked me to state my business. "Hybrids," I realized. "Part or half animal, with the ability to shape shift, speak any human language, and even, in rare cases, possess extremely rare Elemental Powers." Perhaps I might find my Fire Ninja here.

After presenting to the guards my authentic, Garmadon-family-only kimono, they finally let me through and started to walk me down the long street filled with small houses. Most I saw might have only fit one or two; it was obvious these poor Hybrids had been cast from their human homes.

They were indeed outcasts; finding a ninja here might have been considered risky to most. "What would your Sensei think," they'd say, "if he knew you were hiring Hybrids to be ninja? What's next, wanted criminals?" (As that was, for some reason, considered just as bad among most.) But I was ready and willing to take that risk. If I had a Hybrid as a ninja, it might show the world - both of them - that living in harmony is as simple as walking over and saying "hi".

Not long into the "tour," I abandoned the long search, as there was no need to continue. I had stumbled upon a small property with two buildings instead of one. One was a tiny shack, which appeared to act as a small house, and the other, a blacksmith forge, respectively labelled "4Weapons."

I found my Fire Master. A Hybrid, but at least they'd make a good warrior.
