Summary
When Zuko was thirteen, his father attempted to kill him by the command of Firelord Azulon, burning through half of his face with the fiercest flame he could conjure. When Zuko failed to die, Ursa begged for her son’s life in exchange for the Firelord’s. She fled with her children after delivering counterfeit poison to Ozai and they hid among the refugees of Ba Sing Se.
A baby was left at their door when Zuko was seventeen, from an encounter he could not recall. His mother wailed harder than the newborn infant when she found out about his work as an escort. He quit that day, and named his daughter Izumi.
At twenty-three, Zuko meets Katara and Sokka, who both fled their homes as children to seek refuge from the raids of their tribe. However, Zuko meets them in very different circumstances: Katara as a trainee at the strip club he works at, and Sokka as his daughter’s teacher at Ba Sing Se Primary School.
