Birthrights and Bastards (ZukoXOC)

Three years after her grandmother died, Ash is struggling to survive, but everything changed when her adoptive siblings bring back Aang, an airbender, and trigger a Fire Nation raid on their village.
Alas, like every main female character in fiction, she also has her fair share of secrets to keep.
Her time has come to travel the world and find a way to heal her sight, all while being chased by a banished Prince and his loving Uncle.
Will they find a way to coexist? Or will the Fire Nation snuff out the hopes of rebellion forever?
(This is a fanfic. I can only assume you already know. Inconsistent update schedule.)

Things you should know!
I do not, will not, and will never glorify abuse or abusive relationships. Also no amnesia, love triangles, or deception here. Only wholesome fluff.

Spoiler free explanation.
Ash, the OC in this story, has been blinded. Due to the in story explanation, one of her main character motivations is to find a way to heal herself and regain her vision.
This story is not meant to be derogatory or offensive towards anyone who is on the blind or visually impaired spectrum. If anyone has any issues with the depictions in this work, please feel free to contact me so I can remedy it however possible.

With that out of the way, here is my general Author's Note.
The chapters for the episodes "The Storm" and "The Blue Spirit" have been swapped to better serve the narrative.
Our protagonist Ash is seventeen, and Zuko has been aged up to be eighteen. Some timeline things have been moved to reflect this. Kya's death, Lu Ten's death, and Zuko's banishment all happen two years before they did in canon. The Fire Nation ship at the South Pole was also stranded much later in this story.
I don't own Avatar the Last Airbender or any of it's characters/ideas.
