Jinzuk and Rina

"fire"

- You have lovely parents." "They have always been good to me.

Jinzuk and Rina were Ursa's parents, and raised her in the small town of Hira'a where Jinzuk was the magistrate.

History
Rina was born as a daughter to Avatar Roku and his wife Ta Min. As she grew up, met and later married Jinzuk, the magistrate of Hira'a. They subsequently settled down in the village and had one daughter together, Ursa. As master herbalist, Rina also thaught her daughter much about medicinal herbs and poisons.

When Ursa was a teenager, Fire Lord Azulon approached the couple with Prince Ozai in tow. The Fire Sages had prophesied that a powerful bloodline would result from the marriage between his son and a descendant of Avatar Roku, namely Ursa, and Azulon wished to bring this prediction to fulfillment. While Jinzuk was entertaining his guests in the family's greenhouse, Rina was inside the main house, crying over Roku's headpiece that she had inherited from her father. When Ursa came home, Rina told her to go to her father and his guests in the greenhouse, but emphasized to her daughter that she loved her.

Ursa accepted Ozai's marriage proposal, stating that it brought much honor to her family. Rina and Jinzuk attended their daughter's wedding and bid her a final farewell, since Fire Nation princesses were not permitted to have any connections with their families or home towns. Both of them died years before Ursa's eventual banishment, never even hearing of their daughter again.
