The Legend of Korra: The Obsidian Mirror
14 parts Complete In a distant, parallel world, Avatar Korra arrives in a Republic City already teetering on the edge of revolution. The charismatic and enigmatic Amon leads the Equalist movement, promising to eradicate bending and create a society free from bender oppression. As Korra confronts this new threat, she grapples with her own fears and the city's deep-seated inequalities. While the major events of her initial struggle against Amon unfold-his terrifying ability to remove bending, the political machinations of Tarrlok, and Korra's own journey to master airbending-the climax diverges. Though publicly believed to have perished after his identity as a bloodbender is exposed, Amon survives the boat explosion that claims his brother. Scarred and his ideology twisted by this near-death experience, he retreats into the shadows, not defeated, but transformed. His original mission of equality begins to morph into a far more sinister ambition: to find a way to counter or corrupt the Avatar spirit itself, setting him on the path to becoming a terrifying Dark Avatar. Book One concludes with a fragile peace in Republic City, unaware that its greatest enemy endures, his dark purpose only just beginning to coalesce.
