The back to back of the Northern Air Temple episode and the introduction to the Northern Water Tribe episode is so,,,,
Hey here's what happened to the scraps of what was left of your culture and people who were genocided, congrats, it's been desecrated
Hey here's what your sister and opposite tribe is up to, hiding behind their walls while your people were genocided, here's everything you could have been, and also never were because even if you're both polar you're on opposite sides of the world.
Maybe I'm just too Irish and lost in the sauce of so much of our culture being lost forever and hearing old recordings of my nan on the radio fluently speaking a language I speak natively but at a child's level and all, but maaan these episodes hit so hard in aggressively personalised pain.
