Book 3 - Champions of The Force
Sokka lies dead at the hands of the Sith, Aang lies comatose on his death bed, and Zuko has found redemption...but at what cost? Ba Sing Sai has fallen.
Now, Benjamin, the informal Grandmaster of The Jedi Order, faces new challenges. He is forced to collaborate with both new allies and old foes. Tasked with rallying his team and escaping from the ruins of Ba Sing Sai, Benjamin confronts an uncertain future.
Whispers of the Avatar's demise echo through the air, raising the possibility that Benjamin may need to assume Aang's legacy. However, will the weight of this responsibility prove too heavy for him to bear? With the war nearing a century in duration, a risky move may bring it to a close before Sozin's comet even arrives.
However, as disaster follows disaster and death begets death, questions arise. How much can Team Avatar endure, and how reliant can they truly be on Benjamin? The Heart of The Guardian, a legendary bronze blade, radiates within Ben's lightsaber.
Yet, it holds both Jedi and Sith origins. Is Ben a Jedi Savior or a Sith Conqueror? Standing on the precipice between light and dark, he faces an unprecedented choice-to release the chains that bind him or to embrace the power they yield.
Katara gazes at him with a scowl. "The bad ones always come back," she reflects in a sneer. "Look at Jet and Sokka...all the good ones die."
"What do you mean?" Ben inquires. "She's gone. She can't harm us anymore."
With a scowl matching the gathering storm in the distance, Katara turns away on her ostrich horse, leaving Ben to ponder her words as she vanishes into the forest. "The had ones always find a way back."
