Despite his high position in the Fire Tribe, he has no idea of the real situation of the villages outside the capital and thinks that the people are merely slacking off. 

However, After experiencing all the citizen’s hardships, his eyes open to the bad state of his tribe and realizes that with how their current system, there won’t be any future for their tribe.
