Summary
The age of Avatar Korra has ended. Passing away peacefully in her sleep, the world mourns the loss of its great protector, and of the lodestone ensuring its continued peaceful balance. However, across the formerly four, now many more nations, the White Lotus again begin their search for the new Avatar…
And find nothing.
Eighteen years later, young Meiying of Zaofu faces a personal crisis. An Earthbender blackmailed by the rogue state’s secret police agency to act as a “Listener”, Mei spends her days trying to avert her eyes from the victims of her work. However, when her handler tells her that her newest case will be her classmate and close friend Jinghua, Mei finds that she can no longer be so detached.
Caught between compassion and fear, Mei desperately tries to find a way to save her friend while avoiding the ever-present gaze of the secret police. Is there such a solution? What’s truly important to her? Can the shadowy machinations being set behind the scenes be stopped before they consume the entire country?
And who is the woman in wolf-pelts Mei keeps dreaming of?

Bookmark Notes:
dark, unexpected. very formative, with few concrete relationships yet formed, though lots of potential; the author described it as a prologue themselves in a comment. looking forward to the publication of Book 2
