[For no very specific reason at all, Katara is happy this late afternoon. The air is getting colder, and the very fact that it's nipping at her face is enough to make her smile. Add to that the glorious storm of yesterday, that it is still drizzling...

It's started drizzling as she runs her errands in town, and she puts a hand up to bend an 'umbrella' above her head as she walks along. She forgets herself, though, as she comes to some large puddles in the road, and dropping her hand, stares at them for half a beat.

Well, she's already wet.

So she jumps in. Not bending at all, simply splashing about in the puddles along her way.

Feel free to catch her in this rare display of immaturity and glee - or even join her! Hopefully she won't catch a cold.

Much later, as she prepares dinner for her house, she makes a voice post.]

Anyone else looking forward to the change in the weather?

The timberlands deter invaders. Halgita is the safest city in the world. It was built there for a reason.

Your world... the nations there fight each other that much?

...Disagreements are not uncommon, but Halgita was enclosed centuries ago. The world was different, then. [There's a peculiar weight to that last sentence. But then, Sigmund is a peculiar man.]

Oh, I see.

...does that mean that the people never saw the sun? Or the moon? [She's somewhat disturbed by this.]

The dome over the palace and temple has windows. Veros is the moon god.

...The city isn't dark. [If... that's what she meant.] It has many lamps.

...the palace and the temple are close enough to have windows to the surface? How does the air get down there otherwise?

No, the palace and the temple are above ground. [Technically. Kind of. Sort of. After a manner.] The dome is... There are no cities like this at all?

Not in the South Pole.

Well, there were the Crystal Catacombs under Ba Sing Se. They had been a city once.

[Going from city to catacomb... doesn't really sound very promising.] Then you should have an idea.

Not really. I was only down there as a prisoner.

[Oh. Uh. He really put his foot in it there, didn't he? This is awkward.] ...Halgita may be something that has to be seen for one's self.

It sounds like it. But it must be pretty.
