Summary
Zhao knows he is meant for something bigger than being trapped in the desert under General Xu’s command. When he accepts the opportunity that Firelord Azulon has offered to him, he understands the long fucked up game he has to play inside the Fire Nation Royal Family. What he doesn’t know, it will also cost him his sanity and the start of a whole new experience he has never dreamed of.
(And curse the goodness of his heart who doesn’t know when to let go)

Summary
After narrowly avoiding a deadly Agni Kai with his father, Zuko flees to the Earth Kingdom. Years of searching for justice turn to disillusionment, and Zuko settles in Dangshu, where he becomes a quiet librarian by the name of Lee, far removed from the war.
Sokka is accidentally swept up in the flood from the dam explosion at Gaipan and is presumed dead. Alone and without direction, he stumbles upon Dangshu Library, which gives him the opportunity to research new tactics for the war effort while he recovers and waits for his friends. There, he meets Lee, a librarian who harbors a deep resentment for the Fire Nation.
Together, they change the course of the war.

Summary
The defeat of the Fire Lord was meant to mark the end of the war. But when the Gaang arrives at the Caldera, they find Fire Lord Zuko waiting for them. That's when they learn that Azula has an older brother and ending a 100-year war may not be as straightforward as they thought.
Zuko may be worse than Azula. At least they could just fight her.- Language:

Summary
The bath takes care of the sweat. Takes care of the burnt bits of skin and fat that still cling to his palm. Zuko scrubs his body until it’s raw, blushing red; he dunks his head under the hot water and stays there, staring up at the dark, vaulted ceiling of the washroom until his lungs run out of breath to use.
The oil of honeysuckle and opium and cinnamon, sweet and sharp and earthy, does not wash the stench of scorched flesh out of his nose.Zuko falls asleep on the evening of his official coronation, when he’s twenty-one-years old and has finally reached his majority. Zuko wakes on the morning of the Agni Kai with his father, eight years earlier.
This is annoying for several reasons, like the fact that the War is still ongoing, that he has zero friends, and that Ozai is not in jail.
It’s time to scheme.Series
