We've been riding for hours.
I don't know why but I thought this thing would be a lot faster.
Appa's right Zuko.
In our group typically we start out our missions with a more upbeat attitude.
Can't believe this.
Don't worry you'll get the hang of it.
Whoa!
Whoa!
Even though these buildings are ancient, there's something eerily familiar about them.
I can tell the fire sages temples are somehow descended from these.
Ok we've learned something about
architecture.
Hopefully we'll learn something about firebending too.
The past can be a great teacher. Woah.
Zuko.
I think the past is trying to kill me.
I can't believe it.
This booby trap must be
centuries old and it still works.
There's probably a lot more.
Maybe this means we shouldn't be here.
Where's that upbeat attitude you were
talking about?
Besides people don't make traps unless they've got something worth protecting.
Look this seems promising.
Though I'm not sure what this tells us about the original source of firebending.
It looked pretty angry to me.
I thought the Dragons were friends with the Sun Warriors?
Well they had a funny way of showing it.
Zuko.
Something happened to the dragons in the last hundred years.
Something you're not telling me.
My great-grandfather Sozin happened.
He started the tradition of hunting dragons for glory.
They were the ultimate firebenders. And if you could conquer one your firebending talents would become legendary.
And you'd earn the honorary title "dragon."
The last great dragon was conquered long before I was born.
By my uncle.
But I thought your uncle was
I don't know good?
He had a complicated past.
Family tradition I guess.
Let's just move on.
It's locked up.
Wait.
It's a celestial calendar.
Just like the fire sages have in their temples.
I bet that Sun stone opens the door.
But only when sunlight hits it at just the
right angle on the Solstice.
Monkey feathers.
The Solstice again we can't wait to hear that long.
No we can't but we might be able to speed time up.
