mako-licious reblogged this and added: I don’t think Korra broke her legs. It is being assumed that the poison weakened her muscles to a certain point where she can’t stand. It is believed she was poisoned with mercury which causes severe fatigue in muscles, so that would make sense as to why Korra is confined to the wheel chair.

i was thinking atrophy too. maybe su got the poison out in time to save her life, but it had already gotten to her legs?? it seems like most of you think that it's the poison, so i'm just gonna go with poison-induced atrophy
