thinking about how morrow, kai, and lloyd are all connected by the same desire to be the green ninja: morrow because he felt lead on by wu that he could be, kai because he wanted to be better and stronger and recognized for it, and lloyd because he wants to feel like he deserves this title he was given and to be able to bear all the weight it carries (not just for himself but for everyone else, too).
thinking about how kai found his full potential only when he realized his mission wasn't to become the green ninja, but to protect him. also thinking about how morrow rejected being saved because he accepted that his fate was already sealed, that not only would he never be the green ninja but also no longer would he be able to reverse what he has done.
thinking about how in all of this, lloyd somehow knew and trusted morrow to do the right thing when he let morrow return by himself with the realm crystal. and how he also knew and trusted the other ninja to be able to save the day themselves because he understands their strength and their worth.
thinking about how lloyd was once an evil little brat trying to fill in his father's shadow, but found new meaning and new purpose when he made the choice to follow his fate and accept his destiny to become the green ninja. how he has now become a symbol for change and goodness in all because of his choice. how he has influenced others to make peace with their own fates and destinies, including kai and morrow.
thinking about how lloyd really is the only one who could take on the role of the green ninja, and how his determination, kindness, and forgiveness has made him transform others alongside himself, earning him the fierce loyalty of kai and the change of heart from morrow.
