Re: Owl to Zuko
This place has duels as well? Truly? I was under the impression that these people have no concept of fortitude. Perhaps I have underestimated them. Hogwarts seems to be particularly soft. I have nothing to hone my skills against.
I think I have resigned myself to get used to life outside of the Fire Nation. In any case, I don't think I could go back quietly with what I have seen and experienced of the outside world. I do believe I have come to favor this place here a great deal--the students in this school notwithstanding.
The Agni Kai is a duel of honor. I shamed my father not once, but twice when I refused to comply to the rules of the duel. To shame or disobey the King amounts to banishment. Personally, I think he is waiting for something. What he is waiting for I do not know. As I said, I'm not important to him. My being out of the way probably makes things easier for him--there is quite a bit he has not told me. Besides, my sister is more than enough heir for his liking; I was lucky to be born, as Father would tell me. Your summary is quite reasonable, as a result.
Find a new breed of dragon? Perhaps. I need to find some kind of occupation now.
