That's definitely not Sokka.
Uh.
Woo!
Hee!
What? I can't airbend in the spirit world!
You don't know where Sokka is, do you?
You're Avatar Roku's animal guide!
Like Appa is to me.
I need to save my friend and I don't know how.
Is there some way for me to talk to Roku?
I'll be back, Katara.
Take me to Roku!
Hey, what are you doing!?
[screaming]
I don't understand.
This is just a statue of Roku.
Is that what Roku wants to talk to me about? A comet?
When can I talk to him?
[grunting]
It's a calendar and the light will reach Roku
on the solstice!
So, that's when I'll be able to speak to Roku?
[grunting]
But I can't wait that long.
I need to save Sokka now!
I have something very important to tell you, Aang.
That is why when you were in the spirit world,
I sent my dragon to find you.
Is it about that vision? The one of the comet?
Yes.
What's it mean?
100 years ago, Fire Lord Sozin used that comet to begin the war.
He and his firebending army harnessed its incredible power
and dealt a deadly first strike against the other nations.
So the comet made them stronger?
Yes. Stronger than you could even imagine.
But that happened 100 years ago.
What does the comet have to do with the war now?
Listen carefully.
Sozin's comet will return by the end of this summer.
And Fire Lord Ozai will use its power to finish the war once and for all.
[screaming]
If he succeeds, even the Avatar
won't be able to restore balance to the world.
Aang, you must defeat the Fire Lord before the comet arrives.
But I haven't even started learning waterbending,
not to mention earth and fire.
Mastering the elements takes years of discipline and practice.
But if the world is to survive, you must do it by summer's end.
Hello? I-I'm looking for a spirit named 'Koh'.
[creaking]
Welcome.
Thank you.
My old friend, the Avatar.
It's been a long time.
You know me?
How could I forget you?
One of your previous incarnations tried to slay me!
Nearly eight or 900 years ago.
I didn't know that.
Why did he, or I, try to kill you?
Oh, it was something about stealing the face of someone you loved.
[laughing]
Of course, that's all behind us.
Why should I hold a grudge against you for something in a past life?
After all, you're a different person now.
You've come to me with a new face.
It's been a long time
since I've added a child's face to my collection.
So ... how may I help you?
I need to find the moon and the ocean.
Their spirit names are Tui and La, push and pull.
And that has been the nature of their relationship for all time.
Please help me find them.
An entire culture could be destroyed if I don't get their help.
Oh, you think you need their help?
Actually, it's quite the other way around.
Someone is going to kill them!
What do you mean?
How can I find them and protect them?
You've already met them, actually.
Tui and La, your moon and ocean,
have always circled each other in an eternal dance.
They balance each other, push and pull,
life and death, good and evil, yin and yang.
The koi fish!
I must be going now.
We'll meet again.
Come, Aang.
Where're we going?
To visit my past.
Our shared past.
[squawking]
Ah! Get away!
[chirping]
I'm sorry I swatted you.
You just scared me.
[chirping]
You two look lost.
Maybe I can help you.
I know you.
I was good friends with Avatar Aang.
Iroh.
Hello, Korra.
I'm glad you came to visit us in the spirit world, Korra.
You came just in time.
We're having a little tea party to celebrate May-Jim's wedding.
How can you marry each other?
Aren't you--
Complete opposites? I know!
I tried to fight it, but she really grew on me.
The spirit world is very mysterious, but so is love.
Help yourself to some tea and cakes.
They're spirit cakes.
So you won't gain any weight.
Of course, ha, you won't lose any either.
This part of the spirit world isn't so scary.
My teapot!
That's right. It was yours long, long ago.
When you were Avatar Wan, you used it to carry the light spirit,
Raava, around until the two of you became one.
It is my favorite thing I found here.
You know, when you make tea in it,
you can still taste a little light in every cup.
[chirping]
I must stay focused.
Remember who you are, Tenzin. You are the son of Avatar Aang.
You are the hope for future generations of airbenders.
The fate of the world rests on your shoulders.
But what if I fail?
Then your father's hope for the future dies with you.
I can't fail!
You will. Ah, stop it!
I am the son of Avatar Aang.
I am the hope for future generations of airbenders.
I am the son of Avatar Aang.
Hello, my son.
Dad... I failed you.
I am no spiritually leader.
I've let the world down.
I'll never be the man you were.
You are right.
You are trying to hold onto a false perception of yourself.
You are not me and you should not be me.
You are Tenzin.
I am not a reflection of my father.
I am Tenzin. I am Tenzin!
These are my memories.
The tree of time remembers all.
Korra, the most powerful thing about you
is not the spirit of Raava, but your own inner spirit.
You have always been strong, unyielding and fierce.
Avatar Wan.
Before he fused with Raava,
Wan was just a regular person.
But he was brave and smart and always wanted to defend the helpless.
That's right. He became a legend because of who he was, not what he was.
He wasn't defined by Raava any more than you are.
[gasping]
Everyone in Republic City is in danger!
You have to help them, Korra.
How? They're halfway around the world.
Do as the ancients once did.
Connect to the cosmic energy of the universe.
Don't bend the elements, but the energy within yourself.
You really think I could do this?
I have no doubt.
Thank you for not giving up on me.
I'm proud of you.
If you and Vaatu have the same fight every 10,000 years,
why hasn't one of you destroyed the other?
He cannot destroy light any more than I could destroy darkness.
One cannot exist without the other.
Find the light in the dark.
[gasping]
Uh, what did you say to her exactly?
What happened back in Zaofu?
You told me we wouldn't have any problems getting the Avatar.
Because of you, we've all been compromised.
No. Any evidence was destroyed when my library burned.
Where is your physical body now?
At the Misty Palms Inn.
But there is no need to worry. I was not followed.
You left a loose end.
I assure you, no one knows anything about us.
No, you are the loose end.
Zaheer!
Uh.
[screaming]
It seems Aiwei was mistaken.
He was followed.
That's right. We knew he'd lead us straight to you.
So, what did you do with him?
He'll be spending eternity in the Fog of Lost Souls,
which just leaves the two of us.
