That was Senna, not Tonraq.


* While Korra's reunion with her parents was heartwarming, there is a strong sense of awkwardness along with how they all blame themselves for what happened. Tonraq even sadly admits they can never get the time they lost back.

---> '''Mako''': You don't get it at all, do you? Me and my brother, we've been orphaned for years, and there was nobody willing to look after us. We had to survive on our own, doing whatever we could to survive. Sure we can both bend, but no company wants to hire kids. The gangs aren't so picky; some of them can use kids with those talents. And not for anything good. But it was a choice: Work for the gangs or starve in the gutter. At least our gang gave us protection from my parent's killers. The police lost interest real quick. And I can't just walk away from it now. Not while my brother still needs me.
