A Father's Concern for His Son
Ozai
Do you think my son is this person the soldiers are calling the Blue Spirit?
Zhao
Yes.
Ozai
Do not harm my son. Leave him to his isolation.
Zhao
You have my word, sire. I will not harm him.
Ozai
And what of the Avatar?
Zhao
We assume he has rejoined with his supporters. It has been confirmed that he's traveling north. It is my strong belief that he is traveling to the Northern Water Tribe. I believe he has only knowledge of his birth element, air, and is trying to learn the discipline of water.
