| "You have lovely parents." "They have always been good to me." |
| — Ozai and Ursa about Jinzuk and Rina.[1] |
Jinzuk and Rina were a Fire Nation couple and the father and mother of Ursa. They lived in the small town of Hira'a, where Jinzuk was a magistrate.[1]
History
Rina was the daughter of Avatar Roku and his wife, Ta Min.[2] As she grew up, she met and later married Jinzuk, who became a magistrate of Hira'a. They subsequently settled down in the village and had one daughter together, Ursa. As a master herbalist, Rina taught her daughter much about medicinal herbs and poisons.[3]
When Ursa was twenty-one years old, 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 the Crown Prince 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.[1] Both of them died years before Ursa's eventual banishment, never even hearing of their daughter again.[3]
