She watched Zuko breath, mulling over the mystery of the three boys.

The Mother of Faces said she'd created Li and Nán when she'd slivered Zuko's dying body, giving the pieces new faces in order to hide them from Koh.

Author's Notes: Got several messages that people were confused about the Zuko, Li, Nán connection. Hope that clears things up.
