I just realized that ATLA Seasons each last a season. One of the first episodes, early in the 1st season, is the winter solstice, I.e. the first day of winter. The end of the series is the end of summer, given that Sozin's Comet is repeatedly mentioned to pass during the end of the summer. Meaning, roughly, Book 1 is winter, Book 2 is spring, and Book 3 is summer. Not exactly, of course, and I'm only halfway through Book 1 rewatching it, but I think they mention the vernal equinox at some point (beginning of spring) and if it is, I bet it's near the beginning of Book 2 or end of Book 1.

@inklings-challenge Four Loves Challenge: The Wild Swans (Storge)

"Your brothers can be set free," she said, "but have you the courage and tenacity to do it? The sea water that changes the shape of rough stones is indeed softer than your delicate hands, but it cannot feel the pain that your fingers will feel. It has no heart, so it cannot suffer the anguish and heartache that you will have to endure. Do you see this stinging nettle in my hand? Many such nettles grow around the cave where you sleep. Only those and the ones that grow upon graves in the churchyards may be used - remember that! Those you must gather, although they will burn your hands to blisters. Crush the nettles with your feet and you will have flax, which you must spin and weave into eleven shirts of mail with long sleeves. Once you throw these over the eleven wild swans, the spell over them is broken. But keep this well in mind! From the moment you undertake this task until it is done, even though it lasts for years, you must not speak. The first word you say will strike your brothers' hearts like a deadly knife. Their lives are at the mercy of your tongue. Now, remember what I told you!"

Ang hindi magmahal...

“Ang hindi magmahal… sa sariling wika ay higit pa sa hayop at malansang isda.” Iyan ang isa sa mga katagang lagi nating naalala na sinabi ni Gat. Jose Rizal. Medyo mainit pa kasi ang usapin ng patungkol dito. Pero hindi ko naman iyon gustong talakayin ngayon. Gusto ko lang mag-blog. Namiss kita. Este namiss ko ang magsulat. Tuldok.
