"Keep up, Zuko!" I said as I danced forward.
"So your sure that Aang is here?" He said uncertainly.
Zuko was still mad that there was a girl called "Zuzu" in It's A Wonderful Life. But he couldn't bring himself to upset my mama tho.
"I'm pretty sure." I nodded. "The spell was two-fold. I mean. I used the same spellwork on the bowl and the candle. The Lotis wou—"
Zuko was glaring at me. "The White Lotus?"
I shook my head. "Nope. L-o-t-i-s. Lotis. The Magic of Words. Look." I extended my arm, and the runes glowed there. "This one here, BU-I-MU-KU. It means Release. This is just one of the runes I use." I tapped a locked gate, and the lock vanished, the gate opening.
Zuko stared. "So you don't have bending here?"
I laughed. "Not exactly. Like Aang I have a spirit affinity." I inhaled. "I used to see the spirits. But…that power was never mine."
Zuko waited for me to explain. I didn't.
The gate opened.
"Welcome, Zuko. Welcome to the Order of the Lotis."
