• Book 1 out of 4 of "The Way To Save You" series.
Scrapped the old summary. Here's the new one:
We have a purple Na'vi heroine, age 15. Her clan's dead. She survived 7 years of RDA experimentation. Mutated to have rapid regeneration. Her healing can be shared via blood-contact and tsaheylu. She escaped. Got caught by Mangkwan, turned into a slave healer. She escaped. Ultimately meets Neteyam and saves him when he gets shot.
Story begins at the part where girly has already escaped the Mangkwan, and Neteyam and Lo'ak are just about to be promoted as scouts for the train raiding scene in ATWOW.
This is an immersive longfic with World Building x 100 because I included references from the comics and from so many avatar wiki pages which I also explain in detail at bottom notes for those of you who only watched the movies.
This Avatar - Neteyam AU fanfic:
• is currently undergoing rewrites to "make it make sense."
• has long chapters in the revised ones. (Avg. 7k words)
• is canon-compliant (save for my own interpretation of incomplete souls and Spirit World rules).
• is written in switching 3rd person POVs.
• has lots of photos and terminology lists for your convenience (though I recommend reading this on AO3 where the terms are html embedded to tumblr redirects for quick definition)
A SAMPLE OF MY WRITING (from an unrevised chap):
"Listen to me," Neteyam said, his focus narrowing entirely on her, his brows furrowed with genuine concern. He shifted, his hand moving to cover hers where it rested, white-knuckled and trembling against her thigh. Her skin felt fever-hot against his palm, a sharp contrast to the cooling spray of the sea.
"Focus on this," he told her, keeping his voice low and steady to cut through the sound of the surf. He needed her to stop staring at the horizon with those dead eyes. "Feel the weight of my hand. The salt on your skin. You are here, Hiraya. Right now. You're with me, and we're above the surface. Stay in the light."

Ashes and Absence ~ Neteyam Sully
"Ke'leha?" Ke'leha's breath hitched. For a moment, the rage between them seemed to vanish, replaced by the ghosts of two children. She looked up at him, her gaze finally focusing past her rage. She saw the way his eyes, those glowing embers, searched hers with a desperate, familiar kindness. She tilted her head to the side. "Neteyam?" she whispered, the name sounding foreign and heavy on her tongue. His grip loosened completely, his weight standing from her body. "You're... You're alive?" Ke'leha stood right after, her hand clutching her side. "Why do you have to ruin everything?" she hissed, leaning back against a rock to catch her breath. Neteyam looked at her, to the burn marks that were now visible beneath the smudged paint, to the way her shoulder bled from his arrow, to her face that he couldn't recognise. "You're alive." he stated again, grabbing his broken bow and sitting down on his heels on another rock. The silence that followed was heavier than the humid air of the ravine. ~~~ Ashes and Absence' takes place in the world of Avatar, but diverges from the canon storyline. While it borrows elements from the original setting, it follows its own path and focuses primarily on the journey of the Original Character (Ke'leha). Notes: This story explores an enemies-to-lovers dynamic between the two characters presented. Canon characters are portrayed with minor to major deviations. Content Warning: This fic is intended for mature audiences and may contain gore, smut, depictions of war, and other sensitive themes. Specific trigger warnings (TW) will be provided at the beginning of each relevant chapter, or scene. ⏾ Art Credit: The artwork used for this story's cover belongs entirely to its original artist.

They were diplomats that preached peace and resolved conflict, both within and between clans. The people used to travel, whisper stories and sing songs-but now their people were left to be forgotten in the dust once John Mercer and his mercenaries gunned them down. The incident was covered up, left behind without a trace. Their disappearance was both a mystery and a tragedy. But no one knew of the children they spared, brought in, trained. Experiments to turn the Na'vi against their own, to fight fire with fire. But when that fire raged and rebelled? They washed out its embers and left the biggest flame to burn all on its own. Etuwa was groomed into the image of a warrior who carried not pride, but metal. Molded by the fingertips of Mercer, plagued by the memories of the past. The knives that were shoved into her hand as a child will come back to bite them, for Etuwa is ruled by one passion.
