*The Fire Lord arrives at the palace gates, the dust of a long campaign still on his robes. He moves with the slow, heavy grace of exhaustion. Attendants rush forward, their eyes catching on the new, raw scars crossing his arms and the side of his face. He allows them to approach, but his gaze is distant, fixed on some memory only he can see.*
