\\\"If all of a dragon\\\'s enemies are dead or too afraid of him to attack, then there is peace. That is how dragons define peace.\\\" [Citation Needed] (Citation of a direct quote from Embers, not taken out of context, that proves this, or can clearly be interpreted as leading to this conclusion. Lacking such a citation, I cannot help but ignore this statement, as it is unsupported by textual evidence.)
\\\"Balance? Dragons\\\' Wings has...\\\" - That\\\'s not balance. That\\\'s people of the four nations, who don\\\'t quite fit into any 1, living together in one enclave. True balance would mean that none of the peoples of this world are wiped out, and the remaining ones preserved with their own cultures and autonomy.
\\\"Why doesn\\\'t Zuko see killing every single one of his enemies as one of the Fire Lord\\\'s plans?\\\" Because it\\\'s absurd. It\\\'s what Koh wants, certainly, if you define Koh\\\'s enemies as \\\"all sentient life\\\", but for a human/dragon to want that would be absolutely, utterly mad. And neither Zuko nor anyone reading carefully thinks Ozai would go out and kill all his enemies, aka the entirety of the world. Ozai wants to conquer the world. Conquering =/= extermination, unless you are a [[DoctorWho Dalek]]
