   Summary

   SEEK NOT THE LIGHTNING STRIKE THAT SUMMONS LIFE NOR THE DARK VORTEX THAT IS DEATH BEFORE REDEMPTION

   What if Azula wasn't taken straight to a mental institution after the last Agni Kai? What if she was still in the Royal Palace when Zuko was crowned Fire Lord, and for the first days of his rule? What if she was never locked up and left to descend into madness?

   This is that story: following the steps Azula takes to find redemption while Zuko navigates ruling a war-torn country.
