Water.

Earth.

Fire.

Air.

Most of our elders can all tell us stories, told to them by their elders, about a time of peace, where the Avatar kept balance between the water tribes, earth kingdom, fire nation and the air nomads. But that all changed when the Avatar died. Only the Avatar mastered all four elements, only he could keep the four nations in balance, but when everyone least expected it, he was killed. Hundreds of years have passed and ever since the death of the Avatar, all of the lands have been preparing themselves for war, except for the air nomads, who insist on mantaining their peaceful and neutral nature towards the conflict. Five years ago, a huge turmoil within the Fire Nation caused it to be divided in two, those that supported the war, among them the Fire Lord himself, and those that opposed it, who were then branded as rebels and cast out from their homeland, their people who divided, most thought that the Fire Nation would be stepping down from the war...

But then the fire nation attacked, several units were spotted moving out of the Fire Nation, their destiny, the East Air Temple. Seeing as the Air Nomads had no way to defend themselves on their own and the Water tribes and Earth Kingdoms were not yet ready for battle, they both pooled resources to hire a huge mercenary unit that would fight off the firebenders until reinforcements arrive. Some people still believe that the Avatar is yet to be reborn amongst the Air Nomads, but given the circumstances, if we don't stop the fire nation now, there will be no new air nomads to be born soon.

A loud yawn, followed by some shuffling. Kyung Li lifted herself off the bed where she had been resting and then went to stretch, of course, she forgot about a few space restrictions, and let out a loud 'ow', followed by an annoyed grunt, after she hit her head against the other bed on top of hers. She sighed some, rubbing the top of her head a bit. Glancing around, the swinging of the beds, and of the whole room itself, helped her remind her of where she was right now. A huge ship, courtesy of the Earth Kingdom, which was currently taking all of the mercenaries hired by them to the East Air Temple. Most of the beds were empty now, as it was high in the morning and they probably were ready to set off...Wait...What time was it?

As the realization hit her, Kyung practically flumped herself off the bed, grabbing all of her things and starting to get ready to disembark. Since she had slept with the clothes she was already going to use, all she needed to take out was her long green cloak, she shook it around and dusted it off a bit, trying to straighted it a bit after it was kept in the bag for so long. Once that was out of the way, she quickly put the cape around herself, hiding her lack of one arm. It was bad enough they were all probably being sent in a suicide mission, she didn't want to hear comments about how they had "disabled" warriors in there with them, as if the fact they had some firebenders amongst them wasn't bad enough.

She finished getting ready and then quickly tripped her way upstairs, her bag hanging over her arm. As soon as she got out, she was able to see the East Air Temple, standing proudly and high in the clouds, amidst the mountains. She looked up at it with genuine interest, never having the chance to actually do much touring around before, this was actually the first time she had left the Earth Kingdom. She rested her right arm, her only arm, against the edge of the ship, and stood there, glancing towards her destiny.

Rima went to the edge of the ship and looked at the view. It was absolutely beautiful. She looked around at all the people on the ship. Some with nervous faces, some with blank ones. How could no one here be even a little scared about possible death or injury? She turned around and took a deep sigh. She needed to clear her head some, it was foggy. So she went down to the bottom of the ship where Kyung was. Ironically Kyung and her had been in the same sleeping quarters. She sat down next to her pallet and took out her sketchbook. She lightly sketched the view that she see just a few moments earlier. " So...Kyung....Tell me about yourself" She said smiling.
