  Summary

  Zuko didn't escape from the North Pole with Iroh. He stays unconscious and is taken prisoner by the Water Tribe. The waterbenders are furious and blame him for the siege, and demand answers Zuko doesn't have. The solstice is coming and firebenders don't do well without the sunlight.

  The gaang has to decide if they will leave Zuko in the darkness or take him with them to the Earth Kingdom where he can be imprisoned without suffering the sun deprivation.

  A different and lonely journey for the Prince of the Fire Nation.
