Fire Lady. Katara took a moment to let that thought wash over her. They were set to be married later that day and Zuko had made sure she had the help she would need, something she would have access to when she was Fire Lady. It was odd to think that she was marrying the man she once fought against, and she was marrying into the family that she used to despise.

They had petitioned to be allowed to marry, as it was uncommon for someone who was not Fire Nation to marry into the royal family. It was also uncommon for that person to be a waterbender. In the end it was decided that their marriage would show that the nations were on equal footing, and that even polar opposites can be united.

Katara sighed and looked at her reflection, dressed in the finest silks of the Fire Nation she hardly recognized herself. Everything was red - except for her necklace.

"Lady Katara, its time," one of the servants said from the hallway. She nodded and then stood up.

The wedding was just one day, but the aftershock of having a waterbender on the throne would last longer. At least she had Zuko to fight that battle with.
