Disclaimer: I applied for a part-time job so I could save up to afford Avatar: the Last Airbender. Cause I don't own it.

IROH
I was just starting to give up hope that I would ever see him smile again. That fearful day should never had happened. It was my fault. It should have been me standing there, but it wasn't. Now as I look back it was meant to be this way. If I had never had let him in the war chamber she would never had come into our lives. I owe it all to her. She saved him. This old man will never be able to thank her for the gift she gave. How precious a simple smile can be.
People talk of the Avatar and his greatness. How he will bring balance. Yes, this is true. I to believe he has great power. Though he is still a child, not prepared for what the world has to offer. She on the other hand is smart and resourceful as well as kind and loving. She will bring peace. Peace to Prince Zuko and the world. Does she even know the power her love possesses? I doubt it. She is as innocent as the new fallen snow that symbolizes her people.
Zuko on the other hand has a lot of learning about the fairer sex. I'm to old to lose sleep worrying if my hormonal driven nephew has compromised the afore mentioned maiden. It is no use denying how happy I would be if there were one or two little Zuko's running around. I would be very happy indeed. How ever feel very strongly that it is far to soon in their relationship. I certainly hope that boy asks her to marry him soon. If he doesn't he is a fool. Fools often lose the woman they love just because they wait far to long. Agni, I pray please don't let Zuko be a fool.
Speaking of fools that boy Sokka is a great one. But I admire him for the devotion he shows his sister. He just may be more like Zuko than he would like to admit. Strong in body and mind. These two boys could accomplish anything with sheer force of will alone if they would see beyond their differences. But for now, He is Zuko's greatest obstacle. Would Katara deny her feelings if her brother said it was for the best? I think to some extent she would listen to his instructions. But as for obeying that is a matter I have yet to figure out.
