My Table Iroh poured two cups of tea and watched his companion as she reached for one of the delicate little cups. “I am sure the Firelord would be delighted to rescind your exile…”
Ursa looked into the cup as if the tea could show her the future. “I can’t face him,” she said quietly. “After all I did, I still failed to keep him safe.”
“He would still welcome you with open arms, my lady,” Iroh told her. “He misses you.”
“I miss him too,” she whispered, her voice barely reaching Iroh’s ears. “You have no idea how proud I am of him.”
Iroh smiled slightly. “I think that I might.”
