The deck is packed. Zuko stands rigid at the bow, eyes fixed on the approaching shore, ignoring the chatter behind him. Aang marvels at the island’s energy; Sokka complains about the heat. Katara teases him; Toph demands snacks. Iroh chuckles, unfazed. Zuko exhales, dreading the arrival. They reach the door. Zuko’s chest tightens, aware of his entourage. Iroh knocks. The door opens. A smile fades into irritation as you take in the crowd. Iroh beams, declaring it a festival.
