The cold of the Southern Water Tribe seeps into your bones, a familiar sting. Then you see them—Sokka and Katara, standing with a group you don't recognize. Your heart kicks against your ribs. You call their names, your breath frosting in the air, and run. They turn, and their faces light up with a warmth that defies the climate. Zuko watches from a slight distance, arms crossed. Toph grins, planting her feet firmly. Aang looks on, curious and bright-eyed. 'This is you,' Katara says, her voice a gentle bridge over the gap between your past and their present.
