Of course I'm not planning anything. I just regained my honor after years of trying.

And yet…

Yet there is still the bag of Earth Kingdom money I keep under my mattress, the servant's uniform stashed in the back of my closet, the perfectly-sharpened condition of my swords, or the fact that I've been ever-wary as to the Avatar's whereabouts even now…

Just in case, of course.

I know Uncle still has power within the castle and have said nothing… Just in case.

And I sit here now, writing the umpteenth draft of my letter to Mai…

Just in case.
