"I never realized the Fire Nation had built so many colonies in the Earth Kingdom," Aang admitted, pointing at a map that hung on the wall.
"Yes," Earth King Kuei replied. "For the Earth people, they're a constant reminder of the war, like an old scar."
You glanced at Zuko out of the corner of your eye.
Kuei must have noticed.
"Oh, I...I – Firelord Zuko, I meant nothing personal!"
"No, Earth King Kuei. You're right." Zuko dismissed. "After all the pain my father has caused, it's my duty to bring healing to the world. I'll remove those colonies. I'll do whatever it takes."
"Removing the colonies won't be easy." You noted. "A lot of people's lives are going to be disrupted," you said, crossing your arms.
"We need someone to oversee everything, to make sure it all goes peacefully. Someone like me!" Aang suggested, placing a hand on his chest.
"Really?" Zuko questioned. "You'd want to do that?"
"Yeah, I'm the Avatar! Making stuff go peacefully is kind of my thing."
"Wonderful!" Kuei exclaimed, clapping his hands together. "The Avatar's personal involvement will give the entire process an air of hope!"
"Was that a joke?" You questioned.
"Was what a joke?"
"Nevermind."
"Sokka and I can help!" Katara added.
"Aw. I was gonna visit Kyoshi Island," Sokka groaned.
"Maybe next time," you told him.
"It'll be a movement—a movement towards harmony!" Kuei announced. "We'll call it... we'll call it..."
"The harmony restoration movement!" Sokka jumped in.
"Yes! The harmony restoration movement! I like it!"
"What's with you and your goofy names for everything?" Toph asked Sokka.
"It's a gift."

Sokka stuck his head in the doorway of the Jasmine Dragon. "Are you guys ready?"
You all nodded, except Aang and Katara, who were already outside, and followed Sokka out.
Everyone climbed on Appa, Aang sitting at the bison's head.
"Everybody ready?" He asked.
Everyone made various sounds of agreement.
Appa flew into the air before diving, sending everyone's hair whipping around.
Aang laughed. "Let's go again!"
"Wait, guys! The fireworks are starting!" Suki pointed.
Fireworks began setting off, popping in the air.
"Wow. The view is amazing!" Katara breathed.
"It is," Aang agreed. "Thanks, buddy!"
Appa roared in reply.
You could faintly hear cheering from the town. "Sounds like the Earth King just announced the movement," you deduced.
