Life is made up of "Before"s and "After"s. In this episode, we dive into that theme, exploring Tamberella's art to see how she portrayed the Fire Siblings- Zuko and Azula- and their childhood memories versus their adult realities. We dig in to ifyouwereamelody's Forged in Flames, and see how the build up of the "Before" can create a moment that casts all the next ones as "After". And finally, we pry apart Azula's fraying psyche displayed by the condition of her hair. (Hint: it's a lot more telling than you realize it to be)

As Uncle Iroh himself recognized what change could be like, he once said-

"Destiny is a funny thing. You never know how things are going to work out. But if you keep an open mind and an open heart, I promise you will find your own destiny someday."
