  LOST. AVINA HAS ALWAYS BEEN LOST.

Lost. What does she mean by lost? Lost in a literal sense? No. She's never left the Southern Water Tribe. Lost in a spiritual way? Yes. That's it.

Avi has always felt foreign in her home. Distant from her family and friends, detached from the cold and icy South Pole. She's always felt far-off—like she was some place she shouldn't be. Like she was misplaced; dropped into the wrong environment.

  So, really, was she ever home? Yes. Her family was in the South Pole, so she was home, right? Wrong. No matter how hard Avi tried to feel at home in the Southern Water Tribe, she just couldn't. Her heart and soul were always tugging her elsewhere—nagging at her conscience.

In truth, Avina knows that her true home is elsewhere. Avi knows that the fire that scorches through her veins is fed up with the forever winter of the South Pole. Avina knows that the sun that burns in her soul is ready to be freed. Yes, she knows, but she can't let them go. Not yet.

Not in till she and her cousins accidentally rescue an Airbender boy from an iceberg that just so happens to be the Avatar, is she able to finally let go. Not in till her name is recognized by a prince who decides that he doesn't just want the Avatar, that he wants her too. Not in till Avina's mundane life in the Southern Water Tribe is suddenly uprooted and she is thrown on the adventure of a lifetime, does she finally let herself burn.

  And boy does she burn bright.

• . • . ANNA SPEAKS • . • .

^^ Me to myself because I can't seem to just STOP getting fic ideas.

• Alright anywayss, so, welcome to A Sun's Song!!! First I'd like to say that this fic is first and foremost an ATLA fic. Of course, the Zuko romance is a big part of the plot—obviously—but the main overarching story is Avi's personal journey. So, don't expect AviZuko to be a fast burn...cause they are definitely a slow slow burn.

• Secondly, if you were confused by Avi's cast and aesthetic thing (idk what to call it lmao), she is both Fire Nation and Water Tribe. Her mother is from the Fire Nation, and may or may not have ties to the Royal Family (she isn't related to them btw). And her father is from the Southern Water Tribe and is the twin brother of Sokka and Katara's father. Their story will be explained in depth in the fic itself, since their story heavily affects Avina's.

• Thirdly, Avi's bending abilities!! If you saw in the casting, it said Sunbender, which is an original bending concept I have created (so don't steal please and thank you). Basically, the user has the ability to bend light, sunlight, and sun rays (which I think is just another name for sunlight—I'm not sure lmao). So, Avi will be the first person to be able to Sunbend, and that ability will play a huge role in her story!!

• Lastly, Avi is a flawed character and may not always make the best decisions, so PLEASE, do not hate on her for her mistakes. Character development exists for a reason, and every person deserves the right to grow and better themselves.

Alright, peace out ✌️!!
