Aang is finally forced to reconcile his role as the Avatar with his growing passion for Katara. Ultimatums from Hakoda and Zuko force Aang to act, overcoming his shame and fears. The spirits are deeply invested in the union of the Avatar and act of their own accord, drawing Katara into an ancient ritual that Aang had thought was only a myth. Rated M for Ch 12 & 13 lemons.
