"Now that you can finally bend air, there's one thing you need to learn how to control, and eventually master…" Tenzin spoke seriously, while leading Oogi towards the Air Temple Island. Korra frowned a little. "And what is this?" she asked, cocking up an eyebrow. "The Avatar State." the Councilman replied, naturally. "Yeah… I'll just do that…" she rolled her eyes. "I don't know if you've noticed, but I am not exactly the 'spiritual hub'…" she snorted, annoyed. "As the Avatar, you are connected to the Spirit World, whether you like it or not." Korra paused for a moment. "Amon's gone… What do I need the Avatar State for?"
Tenzin turned to look at Korra seriously, his eyebrows furrowed. "When an Avatar masters the Avatar State, they have full access to their past lives, their memories and wisdom. They are also able to contact any spirit that exists, by getting to the Spirit World." he explained. Korra sighed, both frustrated and stressed. "I'll never make it…" she muttered. "Try meditating… " Tenzin proposed. "You might be able to contact Aang. "He mastered the Avatar State in the age of fourteen. Surely, he can help you master it as well…" She nodded. "I'll give it a go…"
Oogi landed with a loud noise and a flap of his tail. Jinora, Ikki and Meelo, followed by Pema and Rohan came to welcome them. Korra airbended herself off of the bison's back and glanced at them all. "I'm going to meditate for a bit. Give me some peace, okay?" she smiled slightly and walked to the place where they usually meditated.
Korra had been meditating for hours. Concentrating again and again. But, nothing… She couldn't make contact with Aang or any other Avatar. Sighing, she pushed herself up and headed towards the Temple, when she was stopped by Tenzin. "Korra." he rushed towards her, looking frustrated. She raised an eyebrow. "Tenzin, what is it?" He paused for a second, in order to catch his breath, before speaking. "Councilman Tenzin has returned to Republic City, and he wishes to talk to you…" Korra's face fell. Tarrlok? Really? "Why would he want to talk after everything he's done?" she huffed. "I believe, he desires your forgiveness." he replied. "I cannot…" she sighed. "Korra, you have to… Just to talk to him for a small while." Tenzin insisted.
Another sigh. "I don't know, Tenzin…" He touched her shoulder. "You have to. He deserves a chance, even after what he's done…" She paused momentarily. "Alright… I guess I have no other choice…" and with that, she run towards the sea and jumped in.
