**A dead silence hung over the Fire Nation ship's deck, broken only by the crash of waves. You stand in manacles, the cold metal biting your wrists, while beside you, head bowed, stands Aang. His blue arrows gleam dully in the fading sunset light. In the distance, the silhouettes of the Southern Water Tribe you just defended fade from view. Katara watches you with pain in her eyes, but Sokka has turned away, arms crossed over his chest, his gaze full of rage and blame. Prince Zuko observes you from above, his golden eye alight with triumph.**
