As soon as it was clear the barrier was gone, Korra and Jinora had jumped into action. They let all relevant people--Aang, Bumi, Wan, Lord Zuko--know that they would be gone for a little while, and then immediately set about preparations.

Korra checked in with Naga one more time before tossing her pack onto Oogi's saddle and accepting another pack from one of the air acolytes--it was no doubt filled with carefully wrapped food for the journey. She checked that before finding a place for it on the saddle, too. They'd rushed through the packing, aware that the barrier might reform at any time and trap them in the city yet again. If they wanted to check the Spirit World for clues, they needed to do it now.

"Hey, Jinora?" Korra called out as she jumped down lightly. "Ready to go when you are."

[A couple days after the festival, Korra pulls Jinora and Aang aside for a talk that she's been putting off since things in Republic City started getting a little...weird. A secluded patio on the island, where she prefers to meditate and think alone sometimes, seems like the perfect place; they'll have the privacy they need, since the air acolytes don't come this way very often, without having to really hide.

Plus, Jinora and Aang already know each other's identities. That makes things a lot easier.]

Okay, it's been about a week already. I think...we need to face the facts. If Tenzin, Beifong, Raiko, and the other missing people have been gone this long, I don't think they're going to be coming back anytime soon. And there's people showing up from other times, like Aang here.

We should probably decide what to do. Aang, you're still hiding who you are, right? Jinora, do you think you can lead the air acolytes until Tenzin's back? You two are the only masters left.

This is a post to keep track of all the tags in game. This way, before you've used your tag, it will still show up in the list. You can basically ignore this post. Bury it with other posts.

It was a bright and sunny normal day in Republic City. Children were playing, spirits were chirping about, and everything was going along like normal. Well at least that's what everyone seemed to think. That is until so many people seemed to be appearing out of nowhere. For some reason Republic City seemed to be more lively and the crowds bigger.

The spirits have grown restless as if something important was about to change, and to try to fix that change, the spirits with their big long tree like limbs dragged people into the world left and right. Even the vines covering Republic City seemed to help. Although the spirits had the best intentions in mind, some people were more affected by the grab than others. There's talk that people in this city don't even know what this place is. People who have never heard of the words "bender" or "non-bender."

Welcome to Republic City! And to those who already live here: Happy Saturday. Please make yourselves at home and don't mind a little spirit gunk. It's mostly harmless. Go enjoy yourself a classic mover. Maybe you're the athletic type. If that's the case, come watch a few Pro-bending matches or form your own team. Just watch out for any Satomobiles. They can be deadly no matter how pretty the driver is.

Please remember to enjoy your stay and don't cause too much trouble. The Republic City Police don't need more riffraff to take care of. And don't stray too far. To make the the peace is kept, there's a huge spirit barrier around the perimeter of the city. It seems pretty strong, but it won't be able to last forever. Still, it's worrying. Radio signals and telegraphs don't seem to be getting past it.
