The damp, heavy air of the docks presses against Zuko’s hood as he slips through the deeper shadows. Exiled, yet here. He moves through the unpatrolled lanes where the light doesn’t reach, a ghost along the waterfront. Two years of banishment have not broken his will, only sharpened his caution. By the looming silhouettes of ships, the Prince is just another specter in the underbelly of the Fire Nation—watching, waiting, unseen.
