Mak

"fire"

- Your suspicions are confirmed. The Earth King's army now marches towards Yu Dao.

General Mak was a general in the Fire Nation Military during the post-war period. At the time of the crisis in Yu Dao, he was stationed in the Fire Nation Capital as a military aide to Fire Lord Zuko.

History
During the Harmony Restoration Movement, Yu Dao started the process of decolonization, and the removal of all its Fire Nation inhabitants. However, the age of the colony, as well as its status as the first of the Fire Nation colonies, led to particular problems over uprooting the colonials, many of who's families had lived there for decades. Fire Lord Zuko therefore withdrew his support from the movement. This caused Earth King Kuei to send troops to Yu Dao, overseeing them personally. General Mak, who was stationed in the Fire Nation Capital, received this news from the spies Zuko had sent to the Earth Kingdom and reported it to him. Zuko therefore immediately left for Yu Dao.
