Opal had only returned from her trip to Zaofu the night before and her nerves were still on edge. With her mother, father and all of her brothers gone, Zaofu was literally destitute for people to lead it. And Opal was sitting on the edge of a very hard decision to make - abandoning her airbending training to lead Zaofu until a time when her mother or father themselves could be found.

Sleep wasn't coming easily that evening, to say the least. So she was still awake when the rumbling had begun. It seems to fall more focused in Republic City however and in the next moment Opal had been out of her room and into the courtyard where the symbol for Tui and La was. And where a big ball of glowing red now hung, crackling with energy.

... What should she do about it exactly though?
