A/N: Okay I've been working on this idea for over 4 years and it's constantly been stuck in my head. So please tell me what you think about it and how I can make it better.
p.s: I'll probably be making tons of changes when Legend of korra comes out. I just want to get this out now so it doesn't get bogged down by tons of other fanfiction stories when the new series comes out.
Preview:
Nearly 1000 years before Avatar Korra a new nation was formed. It consisted of fire, earth, and water benders who left their respective nations to form what was called The Coalition. They spread throughout the world and by the grace of the spirits and their own ingenuity they prospered…. but it didn't last. Soon after The Coalition was founded they began worshipping the spirit Kai, the first of the Guardians whose job was to keep order in the spirit world. Soon after that, others in The Coalition began worshipping the spirit Lo, the second Guardian who became Kai's greatest enemy.
These conflicting ideals escalated into a full scale holy war within The Coalition and one by one its cities destroyed themselves. Other cities were destroyed by disease, environmental disasters, and one of The Coalition's greatest cities simply disappeared entirely. In the end only a few colonies remained including its greatest city: The Citadel. Those that survived hid themselves from the world to hide what they had done and gradually, The Coalition was forgotten.
Although they have been forgotten, their war still rages….
