The banished prince of the fire nation now a traitor to his home and an outcast. He had left his uncle with the sole purpose of finding himself and figuring out what to do with his life now that he no longer had any hope of going home, and little chance of making a life in the Earth Kingdom.
He rode along on his stolen ostrichhorse and was quickly running out of water, and had long since run out of food. Zuko looked down the ravine to see a man tending a fire, a fire with a rack of meat slowly cooking away. Zuko's stomach growled with want and the prince reached for his swords; however, he then saw the man stand up and walk to tend to his pregnant wife whom Zuko had not seen before. Zuko unhanded his weapons and carried on his search.
He had been like this ever since the North Pole. Ever since he lost her. Being the way he was, he blamed himself. All the whats and ifs came together in his mind to form alternate scenarios he was sure could have saved her. What if he had stayed with her. What if she had come with him. If only he had killed Zhao when he had the chance, then she might not have...
He could never bring himself to say the word. He avoided it like the plague as he slowly wasted away in the hot sun.
It had been over a month since it happened. He was heartbroken, Iroh was distraught, the Gaang didn't feel the same but kept its promise to keep on going. Even the Princess of the Northern Water Tribe felt as if she had lost someone important to her even though she had never said a word to the girl from another world.
