Background[]

Years ago, Tendai and his wife, Amaya, had both founded the Hurricanes together, but during a mission involving a kite nest attacked by Budzo, her death has and therefore blinded Tendai with grief, who left to Katungu to raise Kai alone after he could no longer see the value of Zambezia, but only the cost, while the Hurricanes were only able to rescue one egg, which was Zoe's egg.

Tendai is very overprotective of his son Kai. He teaches his son Kai flying lessons to capture a lizard. He is later captured by Budzo and the marabou storks, and Kai and his allies began rescuing him being caged by Budzo and the storks.

Tendai and Kai are later seen returning to Zambezia after defeating Budzo and his army of lizards; which makes his father reform to Kai as a misunderstanding.
