Description: [edit] [history]

When La demands justice for Tui's favored mortal, Agni proposes a compromise and spirits become more active in the world of man.

Or...

Fire Lord Zuko finds himself entangled in the spirits' schemes. He has been stripped of everything -- including his name -- except for the golden flame that adorns his head and the throne from which he guides his country. He... has a lot he needs to process, and even more to do.

Also available on AO3!

~ Despite the title, Ozai is dead as a doornail.

~ Based on the first three seasons of the original ATLA cartoon (with the occasional tidbit taken from Korra, the comics, and/or the books).

~ Canon may (rarely) be tweaked for worldbuilding purposes.

~ A more grounded look at the war with a closeup focus on the Fire Nation, particularly the royals.

~ Iroh is suspicious, Azula is Azula, and Zuko is trying his best twice over.

~ All the politics. Our protagonist has a country to run and a war to end, after all.

~ Lots of unsubtle spirit intervention with their own half-explained politics to navigate. (Or, if you will: Agni stole the script, La brought the red pen, and Tui has the best seat in the house but the other chairs are being filled quickly.)

~ Zuko's usual luck.

~ This fiction is rated M for Mature. While not as graphic as it could be, this story is not intended for children.

~ The Sensitive Content warning includes: general war themes, bloodbending, Zuko's past, permanent body swap, and ATLA spirits. (This list may be incomplete.)

~ This story will update once every six days until it catches up with the AO3 version. After all backlogged chapters have been posted, updates will drop to match AO3's monthly update schedule.

~ The associated Discord is shared with the AO3 audience.
