OOC: Also, the Tigers haven't been involved in the war. They'd been allies with the Phoenix beforehand, which is why they came here to ask why the Phoenix had joined Primordium and stopped the fire chi shipments.
OOC: Okay, so basically the Phoenix used to be part of the Fire Tribes, which was comprised of the Tigers, Leopards, and Phoenix. The Leopards ended up forming the Empire of Balance with the Vultures, which is basically the middle ground between the Fire Tribes and Ice Hunters, and the Phoenix ended up allying with the Eagles after Eagle King Galvanor reinstated Set-Ra/Winslow as the Phoenix King.
Soon after the Second Chima Civil War (Primordium vs the Chima Alliance) began, Galvanor convinced Winslow to cut off fire chi shipments to any tribe who isn't part of Primordium. After Winslow retreated from the Battle of Lion City and returned here to Phoenix HQ, his former allies, the Tigers, arrived to ask him why he'd imposed the fire chi restriction. You then had Winslow tell the Tigers to end the war, which seems odd considering the Tigers don't have the power to do so, since the war is between Primordium (Eagles, Wolves, Phoenix) and the Chima Alliance (Lions, some Bears, Minor Tribes, and now the Bats).
That brings us to where we are now. A certain character will also attempt to forcefully seize the Phoenix Isles if the fire chi restriction isn't lifted (he's just about to announce this), so if Winslow does want to end the tax (which seems to be what you were implying in your post, correct me if I'm wrong), it might be a good idea for Winslow to make a public announcement to end the fire chi tax and resume the shipments to non-Primordium tribes, regardless of the war's status.

OOC: Thanks for the explanation! Why did Galvanor want Fire Chi restrictions? IC: Winslow: Galvanor convinced me to restrict the shipments of Fire Chi. *Scratches chin.* I'm sure we can work something out to end the restrictions.

OOC: No problem! Galvanor wanted to force the neutral tribes of Chima to join Primordium by restricting the fire chi, since the Ice Hunters, who're still invading Chima, can't be effectively fought without the power source. This backfired for Galvanor though, since it spurred many of the formerly neutral tribes to defiantly ally with the Chima Alliance against Primordium during the Battle of Lion City. After all, even though he's quite clever and conniving, Galvanor is still only 20 years old, and can fall victim to youthful overconfidence at times.

OOC: Gotcha. IC: I will end the Fire Chi restrictions, but you must become our allies.

IC: *Titus lowers his eyebrows.* "We are allies. The Fire Tribes are still one are they not?"
