Summary
Water, Earth, Fire, Air. Orbiting each other, crossing paths, twining and untwining, in opposition and conjunction, never still and ever changing, never lost and never ending.
This series follows Katara, Zuko, Aang, Toph, Sokka, and Suki in the years after Sozin's Comet, tracing their lives and loves, all tangled up with politics, geopolitical and cultural. Each book covers a few years and is composed of a series of almost standalone stories, interlinked into longer stories and character arcs. Destiny's a funny thing....

Summary
It's been two decades since the Battle of Hogwarts, and the obvious happily-ever-afters lined up ahead of Hermione Granger and Harry Potter failed to pan out years ago. When a mysterious magical storm quickly grows to cover Scotland with no sign of slowing, the pair are brought together to try to stop it - despite having been increasingly distant toward each other over the last several years.
Follow them as they slog across an area warded against magical travel to face an unknown danger while they become more aware of the very proximate danger and hope they represent to each other's equilibrium. While both have led successful careers, neither has excelled at recovering in the aftermath of the war, which both pushes them apart and pulls them, inexorably, together.
The present-day action is broken up with flashbacks to some of the seminal experiences and relationships that have shaped who they are.
