Water. Earth. Fire. Air. For decades the four nations lived in harmony. But everything changed when benders began to decline. Only the avatar, master of all four elements could solve the mystery. But when the world needed her most, she died. Twenty-five years passed and I met the new avatar, an earthbender named Yifan. Yifan has a lot to learn before he can fix anyone's problems. But I believe Yifan can save the benders...

Ba Sing Se - Roughly 2018

Ba Sing Se, capital of the Earth Kingdom. It had once been a magnificent place, though one of fear and distrust. That is, until the attack on the Kingdom's queen by the Red Lotus. While the city has since began recovery once King Wu ascended to the throne, it's still been struggling to recover as there are areas of the city that haven't yet been rebuilt. It is here where our story begins.

High atop the kingdom, within the Upper Ring a figure kneeled before the current queen, his back to the rest of the city. He didn't seem like much to an outside observer. Shorter and slightly less lean than that of other Earthbenders, he wore a light green dress shirt with gold trimming and matching pants, over which he wore a thicker formal jacket with a bandgermole embroidered in gold. Black hair fell down his back and light brown skin that matched the colors of his eyes could be seen where his skin wasn't covered by clothing. Over his eyes, he wore a pair of glasses.

"Yifan. It's time for you to set off on your own." The queen frowned at him from beneath her traditional garb. "We've done our best to train you as an Avatar but now is the time for you to go spread your wings. You're free to stay for another few days but you'll have to leave soon."

With that, the queen dismissed the figure. Yifan for his part stayed kneeling in silence, not entirely sure what to do next.

((Feel free to introduce your characters however you feel appropriate. JohnTheSavage if you want Yifan and Ling to already know each other, feel free to have Ling be around for the above/make her way into the general area somehow, possibly as someone called in to help Yifan by the queen due to knowing Yifan's identity as the Avatar.))

Xhao Long walks the streets of the Earth Kingdom, one headphone in his ear.

He wears a dark green jacket, with a white shirt and dark brown pants, some sort of canvas shoes on his feet.

Seems as if he's gotten a day off, and is currently wandering the Upper Ring, looking for something to blow (some of) his money on in this place...

He's clicking his metal fighers against each other in time to the beat, thinking about his next move, when he happens to pass by the entrance to the palace and stops.

This could be the place where a new journey begins, bound by destiny...

"Ah, screw destiny. However, I do want to take a rest."

He stops, still looking up at the building.

When it came to finding history in the making, the palace of Ba Sing Se would be a likely spot no matter the era in which one lived. Ling had been spying on those who walked within it's walls for almost a week now but had found much less than she had hoped for. The fox was close to moving on and looking elsewhere when she saw the Queen leaving her chambers. Ling took a quick glance at her pilfered copy of the Queen's schedule. Nothing. Ling tailed the Queen, intent on seeing what the Queen could be hiding.

Did she just say "Avatar"!?

While watching Yifan and the Queen from the shadows, Ling begins to furiously scribble into her notebook, taking down every detail, every word spoken. However, Ling may find herself giving away her hidden position with the sound of her pen's feverish writing.

Ba Sing Se

Whilst not quite so interested in the history in the making as a certain fox, there was someone else around the upper ring of Ba Sing Se who was cataloging her time there, though with a digital camera, currently hanging on a cord around her neck. Lin Xiao-Sun, conspicuous by her very traditional Fire Nation garb, flowing black and red robes, was wandering nowhere in particular, though she had wanted to see the Palace. She remembered her grandfather lamenting that he was never able to tour the palace.

A destination set, she resolved to visit and see if they held tours open to the public.

"Clay Figurines... get your clay figurines. Come get them while they're... um... clay." Suki called out, walking through the upper ring of the city. A leather strap around her neck and shoulders helped support a tray at waist level, holding a mix of different tiny statues. The tray was counter balanced by the large gourd she habitually carried on her back, making her stand out a little among the various street vendors but not by much. Several were dressed far more bizarrely then Suki.

The figurines were Suki's latest brainstorm to make money... between the pit-fighting and her normal pottery work she was making enough to make a living, but hopefully her ability to rapidly mold clay into whatever shape she wanted would finally get her the wealth she wanted to be able to rub in her father's face. Well, not literally rub but do something with the money she was sure she was going to make to prove to her father that her bending abilities weren't worthless. She'd spent most of the night molding the figurines and then putting them in the kiln to bake. This morning had been spent purchasing the vendor tray and permit.

"Excuse me, Miss... you like souvenir to take back to Fire Kingdom?" Suki reached to her tray, bypassing the clay fox she secretly was planning to keep for herself and plucking out a small clay bird, wings outstretched. "Have phoenix figurine, made right here in city... you can glue to hair clip and use as hair clip, yes? Only twenty yuan, lowest prices in city."

Suki stepped toward the startled woman, trying to imitate the other buskers she saw, not realizing how close she was getting to the palace entry way.

Suki's Hustle

"Yo, hook me up!" A stocky Earth Kingdom woman popped up behind the Fire Nation woman and waved, dressed in a pastel pink floral bomber jacket and jeans. She smiled wide and friendly in spite of the hunting rifle and knife she was openly packing. "These look awesome, did you make them yourself?"

A possumbear with bit and bridle lumbered down the street and hunkered down into a parking space nearby on the curb. It didn't say anything, but Leung, the woman, casually reached over and gave it a scritch behind the ears so he was clearly with her. He had a tag and a collar like a dog, which read RABIES in big letters.

Suki nodded, eager to make a sale. "Yes, made all self, very nice... I mean, I did make these myself. I don't have any possum bear figurines right now, but I can make custom orders. If you would like a figurine of your friend there, I could make one by this evening and have it ready for pick-up in the morning. I have a stand in the clay-works district." She reached behind the back of her head as if to scratch her head, and carefully turned the lid on her gourd. "Just to, ah, make sure... Rabies IS the name of your riding animal and not its current medical condition, correct?"
