Ninjago: Rise of Yether

Master Yether

Present

Grunin, Sharpocroc and some members look around some rock pillars for the Ninja, P.I.X.A.L., Dragon, Chamille and Seliel. Grunin soon kicked a nearby stone in anger and flicks his tongue to the side a few times. "They took the bikes again, one Grundle, their van and mechs." He said as he was flicking his tongue. "They could be far away for all I care!"

"Grunin, calm down." Sharpocroc replied. "Getting angry isn't gonna help."

Grunin sighed as he flicked his tongue again before stopping. "I think Chongbai is losing it. I should've listened to my mother and gone with the arranged marriage."

"It is illegal to marry at 16. Look..." She pulls her goggles up to look at him. "I may be a little older than you, but once the bearer gives birth, we'll... well...run away together." She puts her hands on his shoulders. "Somewhere where they can't find us."

Grunin then smiled at her while putting a hand on her left arm. "I know."

"Good. Let's move on, keep looking."

Several Days Earlier

In the Departed Realm, Geoff and Mistaké sit in a field as Mistaké pours some tea into a cup before setting the teapot aside before they each take a sip. "What's this?" Geoff asked.

"The Tea of Enlightenment." Mistaké replied.

"Even here, you carry tea." Geoff spoke with sarcasm.

"Now, Geoffrey, you heard about me staying in Ninjago and protecting the First Spinjitzu Master and his children. Truth is, I wasn't the first Oni to come. Drink the tea and envision it." Geoff soon drank the tea as Mistaké then stood up, holding the teapot.

"And that's when she told him about Yether." Yether said. Mistaké soon blew some steam from the teapot at his face.

Vision

In the Realm of Oni and Dragons, dragons and Oni were fighting as Firstbourne was firing a burst of Fire on a few Oni. "'Long before time had a name, when war raged between the Oni and the Dragons for the First Spinjitzu Master, he was caught right in the middle of it, hoping to try and help the Dragons reign over the realm." The First Spinjitzu Master, wearing the Dragon Armour, strikes an Oni down before running at another Oni, throwing his Dragonbone Blade in the air, slides past it, catches the sword, and strikes it from behind. Several hours later, the Oni start leaving, some carrying the wounded. "As the Oni were leaving, one chose to stay behind and told him he can create a world of his own, because of his power of Creation. That Oni, was Yether." Yether talks to the First Spinjitzu Master about something. "Eventually, after retiring the Dragon Armour in Firstbourne's nest, they fled the realm together, for the First Spinjitzu Master to start a new one: Ninjago." Yether looked on as the First Spinjitzu Master moved about, his hands glowing, as a forest, fields and the ocean were being created. "Overtime, he and Yether became best friends." Yether, in a human disguise, with the appearance of a very elderly man, wearing a black kimono, looks on as the First Spinjitzu Master, also as an old man, wearing a kimono, teaches Spinjitzu to a young Dragon and Oni. "He had been there when he fathered Dragon and Oni, sort of like a godfather to them. But Oni was more interested in his past and learnt about the First Realm from him." Centuries later, Yether, was lying in a bed, with the First Spinjitzu Master, Dragon and Oni by his bedside. "Eventually, he reached the end of his immortality and as he passed on, the First Spinjitzu Master left him with three parting gifts." The First Spinjitzu Master places the medallion on the bed, then the dagger, and the staff. "The Medallion of Oculus, the Dagger of Aurumetacri and the Staff of Vivifica, with those, he created the Departed Realm, a place of peace, for those who pass on and where their spirits had nowhere to go.'"
