Zuko,
I miss you a lot too! I can't wait to figure out what humidity is. I talked to Dad and he said that we'll go to the Fire Nation when I'm fifteen. So that's in two years? It seems so far away. We'll be so much older. I tried to ask him to let me and Sokka go earlier but he said that it didn't make sense for us to go to the Fire Nation for diplomacy when you just came. It makes a little sense but I wish I could see you sooner! We're friends, it's not about diplomacy.
I want to go to the Earth Kingdom! You're very lucky that you're allowed to do stuff like that! I'm a little jealous, I won't lie. Tell me everything. Earth is brown and dirt and stuff, so are the walls too? Is it really sunny? How does the King live?
Azula does sound terrible, I know, I'm sorry. It was really mean of her to fire someone because of their hair! That's just stupid! I feel bad about calling your sister stupid. I'm sure she isn't stupid. It just sort of made me mad that she would do that. She already has servants and stuff and she fires them? That's just spoiled, I think.
But I'm glad you beat her. Everyone fights with their siblings, it's fine! And yes, I, Katara of the Southern Water Tribe, do solemnly swear to stop you, no matter the cost, if you start drinking tea and playing lots of Pai Sho. But honestly, Zuko, I don't think your uncle is the worst person to be. He's really nice and tea isn't that terrible!
It feels so strange to get back to life without you here. I know you were only here for a few weeks but you sort of made our routine work so well. Sokka tries to be a big bad warrior about it but I can tell that he misses you a lot. He's always complaining about missing a sparring partner. I always crush him when he tries to fight me. Perks of being a waterbender and living on water!
Me too. I miss you.
