"Legends have been saying, that not only the avatar cycles are about to repeat themselves, but the humanity's history also. Somehow it happens that the air nomad avatars are the ones that are bringing back the peace to an era, while destruction and decay are initiating by one of the fire nations avatar's death from the same cycle. I have tried everything I could to change this wheel to the other way around. I swear, I have. Would you like to know if I succeeded? Then listen to my story, dear reader.My name is Hikari, an avatar who was born in the fire nation, and if you read these lines most probably you going to find me only somewhere in one of the air temples as I am not here anymore...I moved on to the next life.However before I share about myself, in order to you to understand, I have to start this long tale with one of my past life Avatar Jigmet, who was the air nomad avatar before me. Avatar Jigmet had lived very long. Almost 150 years I would say. ( using the special meditation) He accomplished significant deeds. Thanks to him the world came back to balance from the chaos that emerged its peak when he was born. He was wise and dedicated the majority of his years to the people and to maintain the peace between the four nations, also the spirit world. He could not have done all these however without his friends who were his best advisors also. In the last 20-30 years of his life one by one everyone disappeared who accompanied him and therefore Jigmet was not able to keep up with the dark clouds that slowly slowly gathered around. Despite of his efforts the balance stayed only temporally and when there was nobody by his side anymore, he retired himself. Before he died he lived as a monk hidden from the world. People started to even doubt if he was alive, or they should look for the next avatar. Jigmet passed on by entering the spirit world, letting his body fade from strength and vitality. When he took his last breath, he vanished from the spirits realm too and reincarnated.
Avatar Inuksuk from the southern water tribe came to a less safer world already. While Jigmet gave up taking care of the earthy matters, the conflicts between nations started to surface again. The Earth kingdom feared that the fire nations' structure developed so strong, that it can become a threat to the world. Before the era of Jigmet, there were lots of inner war inside the Fire lands, they had many separate kingdoms and the people were weakening their own territory with the constant competing. Jigmet put an end to it, then has united the Fire nation in one, nominating only one leader. This later significantly evolved the fire nation. They grow so strong that the Earth kingdom only saw one way to protect themselves. They wanted to gain control over the water tribes and possibly air nomads and planned to create one huge force that can stand against the Fire nation in case that's needed. Much deeper intention of the earth king was the growing power he was seeking to gain.
Inuksuk situation was rare amongst the avatars, as normally they are identified and discovered around later years in childhood. Inuksuk parents they knew immediately when he was born that he is the avatar. Igaluk his father was the chief of their tribe and his mother Ataksak, descendant of a previous southern water avatar. She was a shaman, she had high spiritual skills, and she sensed from the moment when she gave birth to her son that Inuksuk has got the ancient spirit in him. ( she didn't know about Raava as Wan's story faded long ago, but she sensed her ). Inuksuk parents tried to hide him from the world and keep the secret, until they felt he was ready. Igaluk using his connections, organised the best teachers for his son from all over the world to educate him. It was important that Inuksuk not only understands about mastering the elements, but about politics and diplomacy. In fact he only learnt theory lessons on the South Pole. In order to master the four elements he had to travel all around the world. At the age of 18 he was ready to leave his home, and by then he was master of water and could bend air and earth , not fire. An air nomad called Norbu came first with a flying bison to get him to the Southern Air temple where his journey started. During his mastering elements, he attended important meetings and started to work on his quest to restore the peace. However he took his primarily mission to help the water tribes become independent from the Earth nation. He spent numerous years to establish his nation safe from all other nations. In the meantime he met Akiak ( also male 🏳️🌈) on the North Pole where they became close friends, later they get into love relationship. Inuksuk had an avatar team too, including Akiak, Norbu, Amrita ( Norbu's older sister ), and Ren Inuksuk fire bending master. Inuksuk became a good communicator, a popular avatar with a good reputation especially in the eyes of the water people.
