Kyoshi sat on the floor surrounded by mail the morning that they had planned to head out to the eastern towns. "Are you ready to go?" Rangi called out as she approached Kyoshi.

"Almost, I was just sorting through the rest of these to see if there was any other business out ea-" Her sentence suddenly stopped short.

"Rangi what is this?" Kyoshi held up a scroll with just her name scribbled at the top which she recognised not only because of the way Rangi always writes her y's with a little swoop but because it was just her name at the top.

"An invitation"

Sure enough inside the parchment was a wedding invitation to her own wedding. "I knew all those times you said you were doing those reports you were lying. You hate doing reports, you were planning."

Rangi just laughed. "One of us can save the world, the other can plan the wedding."

"Can we trade?" They only laughed harder.

"And you're okay with it being near the Senik'a clan?" Rangi asked. "I didn't really send out all the invitations yet. I just sent you the first one"

Kyoshi leaned over to kiss the firebender's forehead. "That's fine. I'd marry you right here if you wanted."

"And people? Who do you want there?"

Kyoshi gave her a blank look before responding. "Well I think your mother would kill me if she wasn't there, and Jinpa deserves an invitation for all the stuff I put him through. Plus I think I would want him there. And I guess well I think we would have to invite..." She started rambling on.

"It's fine, we can figure that out later. I just wanted to try and make today a little better." Rangi replied with a smile as she took the invitation and walked over the board with the maps and all their notes and pinned it up along with everything else.

"Come on, let's get going," Rangi said as she took Kyoshi's hand and dragged her out of the room. Kyoshi only looked back to see the invitation on the board, another smile forming on her face.

It took the remainder of that day and part of the next morning to reach the towns out east, they really were out of the way. When they finally got there Kyoshi noticed how the towns were settled in a small valley with a river running through part of the meadow.

The next thing they noticed was the wall. It appeared to split the town in half. For a while Kyoshi was looking for another town, but soon realized that these were the two towns one on each side of the wall. They were so close Kyoshi wondered why they weren't just one town.

The first of the two towns had the entrance practically guarded with water followed by tons of crops growing from fields beside the bank. Overall it seemed like a nice town, Kyoshi didn't get any eerie feeling as they began to walk through.

"Greeting Avatar, the Fire Lord had just notified us of your arrival. How may we be of service?" A man called out to Kyoshi. By the look of him and the men who surrounded him they looked to be noble men of sorts.

"Kyoshi is fine," She assured them. "And I feel as though I should be the one asking you that, Fire Lord Zoryu asked me to come and help with some issues." Kyoshi tried to explain without letting it slip that this was actually a favor that she had really had no interest in, but wanted her support groups.

Her and Rangi were then led into a hall that was near the wall that seems to be the only dividing factor between the two towns.

It was a fairly empty building, and by that there was nobody there. It appeared to be set up in a fashion so that a council could be held. But it had looked like it had been sometime since that had happened.
