However, Azulon was incensed at this lack of respect for Iroh's position and his loss and ordered Ozai to kill his own son, Prince Zuko, as an act of atonement. Ozai, the far more opportunistic and ambitious of the brothers, attempted to convince their father that, owing to Iroh's shameful defeat, decreased standing in the nation, and lack of heirs, Ozai ought to be made heir to the leadership of the Fire Nation. Iroh had a vision early in life that he would be the one to capture the city, but the death of his only son broke his desire to continue in the effort having always been driven more by a sense of duty than personal ambition, Iroh abandoned the siege. Prior to the events in The Last Airbender, Iroh was the firstborn son of Fire Lord Azulon, but Azulon was succeeded by his second son, Ozai, following Iroh's retreat from military affairs after his son Lu Ten died in the siege of the Earth Kingdom's capital Ba Sing Se, which had held against numerous successive Fire Nation efforts at capture during the duration of the Hundred Year War.
The episode was dedicated "In Honor of Mako", who had died some months before the episode aired. In the episode " The Tales of Ba Sing Se", Iroh's name was written as 艾洛 ( aì lùo).
During the narrative of the series, he accompanies his exiled nephew Zuko on his quest to capture the series's protagonist Aang to restore the young prince's honor and birthright Iroh acts as a mentor who seeks to help his nephew become a better person than his father. He is the elder brother of Fire Lord Ozai, the ruler of the Fire Nation and leader of its campaign to conquer the other three nations. Iroh is a very powerful firebender-i.e., he has the power to telekinetically create and manipulate fire-and a retired general of the Fire Nation.
