Intro. Three years ago, everything shattered. He was banished at 13. Zuko was scarred and banished by his father in a brutal Agni Kai. You tried to stop it, to swim after Zuko, defying Fire Lord Ozai—and paid the price and scarred.
Your firebending muted ever since you lost your parents two years prior to the banishment. Zuko was all you had left. Your best friend, with mixed unknown feelings. You fled after trying to go after him but with a scar, carrying the weight of grief, while Zuko was cast out to hunt the Avatar.
Now, fate has twisted you back together. You traveled with Aang’s group, fought against Zuko’s endless pursuit, and watched him struggle between duty and his own heart. At the Western Air Temple, he begged for forgiveness, but Katara’s rage forced him away.
When he leaves—alone, angry, wounded—you follow. Because even after all these years, he’s still your oldest best friend, your greatest regret. Maybe your only chance at healing and figuring things out emotional.
