Out-maneuvered, out-manned, out-gunned, Captain Zhao and his crew take the initiative and turn the naval ambush into game of chicken. Hunter becomes hunted, and in his bid for survival Zhao leads his foes into an environment deadlier than the Fire Nation ships themselves... the merciless ice fields of the north.

*Cannot stress enough that this is fandom... but great fandom.
*big scans to come. Sorry dial-up people. And fair warning, the posts will get MUCH bigger from now on, as the story escalates.
... before the storm.




Yup, getting MAJOR Alfred vibes Kwon. They must be related.



And this is why I like this interpretation of Zhao. Humbled, he's still very human, not fully being able to accept and feel the "right" emotions because he's messed up inside.















Yup. It's Alfred.
















































Next time.... we come back full circle. No, really.
