ＡＣＴＩＯＮ, ＯＰＥＮ ＴＯ ＡＮＹＯＮＥ

Zuko hadn't been to work in a while. He took a temporary leave of absence following Weiss's kidnapping and subsequent rescue, determined to keep a watchful eye on her in case Torchwick was foolish enough to go after her again. But time had passed and Torchwick had yet to make a move, and Weiss had recovered enough that he felt comfortable with backing off a little. (Besides, he was sure she knew that he had essentially spent the past month tailing her.) And while the dragon problem in Fayren wasn't as much of a dilemma as it had been, it was still something that required attention.

Which was why the Deputy Guardian could be found in various parts of Fayren throughout the day, from the streets of the city itself to the more mountainous and forested areas where the dragons tended to dwell. It was important to ensure that the native populations remained unharmed and those human-like dragons that had seen to capturing virgins were eradicated.

ＶＯＩＣＥ, ＬＯＣＫＥＤ ＴＯ ＫＡＴＡＲＡ

You said we were supposed to be friends now, that you forgave me for what I did in Ba Sing Se and, you know, everything else? If that's true, then I would like to ask you for a favor.

"Ah, well I suppose I should be honored that I have a royal escort back to town then, shouldn't I?" She gave a smile that wasn't really all here.

"Are there many here from your world? Seems like a strange coincidence that this place took both you and your sister."

Zuko couldn't fault her for that hollow smile. His smiles weren't always genuine, even when they were necessary.

He turned, leading her back towards the main trail. "There's a few of us, but I wouldn't say many. There are others from other worlds with larger numbers in Genessia. My sister and I were brought here at different times. I was here first, then she came."
