Summary
Sixty years ago, Emperor Garmadon took over Ninjago and the age of the Dark Empire began. After years of training, Kai and his companions attempt to finally put a stop to his evil rule, but their mission fails and Kai is the only one left in the ashes of their defeat. He's captured and tortured until the day comes that Emperor Garmadon finds a use for him—to become the personal bodyguard of his only son, Lloyd. Kai agrees with no intention of following through on any of Garmadon's orders, but when he becomes attached to the boy, he starts to believe that with Lloyd there is hope for the future.
But the road to hell is paved with good intentions. With his new life's purpose, to put the boy on a path of good, Kai is faced with the inevitable price of sacrificing his own soul.
All the while, the companions he'd thought long gone work relentlessly to build up a rebellion to face the Empire of the Darkest Night and get revenge for the supposed "death" of their lost friend.

Summary
Ash was seventeen when his father passed on, leaving him with the weight of being an elemental master within Garmadon's Empire. Before, he'd been left to wander the quiet hallways of a mansion alone, finding ways to entertain himself as a child that would stay out of his parents' way. Then, a seat of military power was suddenly thrust upon him. It didn't take long for him to feel like he was drowning.
When the Shogun arrived one day, all but unannounced, Ash was fairly certain he was going to face the emperor's famed dungeons for being the failure that he was.
Then, something strange happened. Someone believed in him.
