Lian Beifong was never supposed to leave Gaoling.
As the eldest daughter of the Beifong family, her future was already written before she could even understand it - proper lessons, perfect manners, and a marriage arranged to secure her family's name. She wasn't an earthbender, but that never mattered. Lian had always been the "easy" daughter. The one who followed the rules.
Then her younger sister, Toph, was born.
Blind. Powerful. Unstoppable.
And suddenly, everything changed.
While Toph was hidden away and overprotected, Lian was left behind - expected to grow up quietly in the shadow of a family that no longer seemed to notice her unless she was useful.
But Lian still didn't belong anywhere.
Not in her family's expectations.
Not in the life chosen for her.
And not in the world she was supposed to accept.
So when fate pulls her into the path of Team Avatar, she makes a decision that changes everything.
Because the world outside Gaoling is messy, dangerous... and nothing like the plan she was supposed to follow.
Especially when a certain boomerang-wielding nonbender starts making her question what "the plan" was even supposed to mean in the first place.
