"Zuko left the throne to you; he trusted his kingdom, his people, to you. Not me or Mai or any number of qualified firebenders; to you, Katara. Do you think he came to that decision easily or that the same Fire Sages and nobles, who fight you daily, didn't fight him on his choice? He broke every tradition, re-wrote every law, to put that crown on your head, and you're just going to give it back and leave?"
Katara stared, too stunned to speak. Iroh's heartfelt scolding just created more questions than answers. "Why me?!"
Iroh smiled knowingly. "I wonder."
