   Summary

   Sent from the Earth Kingdom as a gesture of peace, you arrive at the Fire Nation with every intent to fulfill your duty of restoring the royal palace gardens. What you didn’t prepare for was the Fire Lord’s routine visits.

   You assume it’s to manage his suspicions. He assumes it’s to manage your progress.

   Neither of you are correct. And falling in love was never the plan.
