Aang, look!
We found the exit.
[groaning]
[screaming]
This isn't the exit.
No, it's a tomb.
It must be the two lovers from the legend. That's who's buried here.
These pictures tell their story.
[Katara] They met on top of the mountain that divided their two villages.
The villages were enemies, so they could not be together...
but their love was strong and they found a way.
The two lovers learned earthbending from the badgermoles.
They became the first earthbenders.
They built elaborate tunnels, so they could meet secretly.
Anyone who tried to follow them would be forever in the labyrinth.
But, one day, the man didn't come.
He died in the war between their two villages.
Devastated, the woman unleashed
a terrible display of her earthbending power.
She could have destroyed them all...
but, instead, she declared the war over.
Both villages helped her build a new city where they would live together in peace.
The woman's name was Oma and the man's name was Shu.
The great city was named Omashu as a monument to their love.
Love is brightest in the dark.
How are we going to find our way out of these tunnels?
I have a crazy idea.
What?
Never mind. It's too crazy.
Katara, what is it?
I was thinking...
The curse says we'll be trapped in here forever unless we trust in love.
Right.
And here, it says, "Love is brightest in the dark,"
and has a picture of them kissing.
Where are you going with this?
Well...
What if we kissed?
Us? Kissing‌?
See? It was a crazy idea.
Us... kissing...
[awkward chuckle] Us kissing. What was I thinking?
Can you imagine that?
[awkward laugh] Yeah...
I definitely wouldn't want to kiss you!
Oh, well, I didn't realize it was such a horrible option.
Sorry I suggested it!
No, no. I mean, if it was a choice between kissing you and dying...
Ah!
What? I'm saying I would rather kiss you than die.
That's a compliment.
Well, I'm not sure which I would rather do!
What is wrong with me?
We're going to run out of light any second now, aren't we?
I think so.
And what are we gonna do?
What can we do?
They're made of some kind of crystals.
They must only light up in the dark.
That's how the two lovers found each other.
They just put out their lights and followed the crystals.
That must be the way out!
- So, um... - Let's go!
[growling]
What about Sokka?
[rumbling]
[explosion]
[growling]
Sokka!
How did you guys get out?
Just like the legend said, we let love lead the way.
Really? We let huge, ferocious beasts lead our way.
[chattering]
[growling]
Why is your forehead all red?
Nobody react to what I'm about to tell you.
I think that kid might be the Avatar!
