The Life of Air

Prologue

For as long as I can remember my grandmother has been telling me stories about the great airbenders of our past. She told me of how they believed in the importance of all life, tried to keep a strong spiritual connection by meditating daily, and did everything they could to keep their life in balance with nature. I was raised on these principles along with my younger brother, Yuji. My grandmother has always told me that we were going to do something great when the avatar returned to us so we had to be ready; she trained me every day while Yuji was trained by our father. I always believed her and tried my best to keep training and become as strong as I could. Even when she died two years ago I never stopped training to be strong for the destiny she was sure I would have.
