Have a pre sketch sketch where an idea for a brainworm hits, but I don't wanna sit down rn and draw it out because I'm tired and I can work on it tomorrow probably (after commissions), yes it's Cole angst

Something something, Lloyd being the Master of Energy and Life, and Cole being the other side of the same coin, life and nature and Earth, an element that's wide reaching just like roots on a tree
Lloyd being a Conduit of the Source Dragons, visions that show the future in clearer detail, a much more controlled gift(?) because as the Green Ninja, he's able to mediate and manage the flow of power moving through him much more precisely
And Cole, as connected to the world as Lloyd, if not more so through the Earth. Master of the very land beneath everyone's feet, since without Earth there literally is no Ninjago. Then something happens (bad guy, spell gone wrong, connection to the Sources getting corrupted, something something) and that links Cole into a similar connection to what Lloyd is experiencing with his Source Visions
And for Cole, it's like being forced into a rushing river of power and visions and scenes that he can't make heads or tales of, there's no control there, no real awareness of when a new vision hits, or even being asked for a possible prophecy can cause one to surface. It wakes him from his sleep, has him zoning out; even if the visions, the prophecies, are sometimes few and far between, it's exhausting to see things he can't understand and be unable to stop the prophecy coming
But what he sees always eventually come to pass, the riddle of a vision always makes sense in the end
And the unconstrained ability to see the future would definitely be of interest to whatever villains, and it's not like they can go after the Green Ninja, so why not the one with a new ability he can't even control, it'd be so easy to get knowledge of what's to come from the ninja who can't even prevent a prophecy from falling from his tongue
