Azulon demands that Ozai kills his daughter instead of his son. Treason occurs, vigilante activities commence, and Zuko and Azula choose to stick with each other through it all. Directly inspired by "the heat that drives the light (the fire it ignites)"
In the Fire Nation there was a legend, one which they always told during the Winter Solstice. A hero's lover is stolen away by a spirit, and he must journey to the spirit world itself to win them back. Sokka was no hero, he was just a guy with a boomerang. But he would do anything to save Zuko.
