She comes at night to his room because it invaded his personal space. Leaning in, while he still rested in the state between asleep and awake, she whispers terrible things.

"Father says you're a failure. You'll never be Fire Lord."

"Uncle Iroh only talks to you because he's crazy and thinks you're his dead son."

"People say you aren't really my father's son – that you're Uncle Iroh's mistake."

"Mother left because of you."

"It's your fault Grandpa's dead."

"It's all your fault."

"STOP IT!" He shouts, but he believes her because there is no one to tell him she lies.
