[Today, Katara is on a mission. There are people she has to thank for giving her presents, and to that purpose she has prepared small pressed impressions of dried goldenrods in glass (thank you, Usopp and the item shop) or pressed into paper with the words 'Thank You' written on it, depending on what she thinks you'll like more. Yes, this has ( Read more... )

[It's a rainy afternoon, but Raine's had a couple of errands to run, so she's prepared with hood and umbrella. Katara gets a friendly wave when she's noticed.]

Not so much keeping the law as... [She frowns slightly. There really isn't a good way to explain this without going into complicated details, but-] Keeping... the towns in check. Some moreso than others. The towns mostly governed themselves. They were more of an outside force.

[Action] markofthebrave July 12 2010, 04:04:34 UTC

Oh. [Processing...] That sounds like how it was when the Fire Nation would take over Earth Kingdom towns. The towns would be cut off from the Earth Kingdom rule, and the Fire Nation soldiers would just... make sure they didn't cause trouble for the Fire Nation. And do whatever they wanted...

[Action] wise_maiden July 12 2010, 04:27:39 UTC

Yes, I suppose it's something like that. Except that the actual kingdom had long fallen into decline, while those forces became stronger.

[Action] markofthebrave July 12 2010, 05:00:20 UTC

I see... and you were a teacher before you came here, as well? If things were like that, then... who taught you how to fight?

[Action] wise_maiden July 12 2010, 05:25:34 UTC

I just... picked up a few things, here and there. It became easier to learn more once we began our journey.

[Action] markofthebrave July 12 2010, 06:06:12 UTC

[Ping!] Journey?

[Action] wise_maiden July 12 2010, 06:23:51 UTC

... More or less a journey to save the world from the state it had reached.

[Action] markofthebrave July 12 2010, 16:46:23 UTC

You too, huh? [And she smiles a little wryly.] That sounds about like what happened with us. Did you get to finish your journey before coming here?

[Action] wise_maiden July 13 2010, 06:01:30 UTC

We had just finished. At least, enough to go on our separate ways. There always will be something ahead of us to do.

[Action] markofthebrave July 14 2010, 00:13:27 UTC

[She nods.] That sounds like what Sokka says we have to look forward to, after the war. Sometimes you can't just stop things - you have to try to reset them.

[Action] wise_maiden July 14 2010, 00:26:21 UTC

Indeed. And there's always so much involved, whatever the case may be. Even if you succeed in reaching one goal, there will always be others.

[Action] markofthebrave July 14 2010, 01:26:02 UTC

[She grins.] It's not like that's a bad thing. What would we do if there was nothing to do?

[Action] wise_maiden July 14 2010, 02:22:22 UTC

Not very much at all.

[Action] markofthebrave July 14 2010, 03:05:07 UTC

So you'll be okay? Out on the battlefield, I mean?

[Action] wise_maiden July 14 2010, 03:31:45 UTC

I should probably get some practice in to be on the safe side where my reflexes are concerned, but I'll be fine.

Did you have a specific reason for asking?
