The Lost Scrolls: Fire (Avatar: The Last Airbender)
If you are reading this, you have uncovered one of the four hidden scrolls I have compiled about the world of Avatar. This scroll contains sacred information about the Fire Nation — stories, legends, and facts that I have found so far about this nation — its history and culture and tales of its past and present.

The scroll also contains information about leaders of the Fire Nation, Firebending techniques, the spirit world, and much more.
