The Expressive Fire
Free Newspaper
22 April 2015
Dear readers,
This article will surely be the last we publish out of respect for the freedom of expression and of the press.
King Ozai, dubbed the "Phoenix King,'' gave his great speech following his (illegal) return to the Throne of the Fire Nation. Said speech praised his "merits," his overturned his prison sentence and his great reflection during these last three years.
He also issued a new law which now prohibits any form of homage to the Avatar Aang, or Zuko, or the rest of the GAang. Citizens flouting this law will be imprisoned for treason, executed, or be sentenced to the workers' camps.
He asked the people: "Would you honor a man who abandons his duties, even for personal reasons?''
Here's what we answer all: We will honor Aang.
Why? You seem to forget something important: his sentiments. His wife was wrongly accused of treason for being allied with the New Ozai Society by the states of the world. Why would she do that? Why she would share the same ideas as vulgar Terrorists? The couple supported each other, they fought together until the last moment, nothing to come between them, he began to argue with his friends for the one he loves. And while respecting its duties Avatar.
Hundreds of people think like us. Like it or not, we will honor Aang, we will resist because war is near. Lock up the 75% of the members of the Fire Nation if you want. Nothing will change.
Moreover, talking about "the attack" just before the execution of Fire Lord Zuko, the explosion proves that there already are rebels. The Gaang is safe now, and they are our heroes, Aang and Katara, our models.
Thank you all for having us read our paper all these years.
Long live freedom!
We will fight to the end!
