[Katara is more than a little stung at Bern's assessment, but after seeing a bit of her history she can't hold it against her.] ((And briefly, there's an image of Katara on a prison ship, standing on a table and speaking to a group of beaten down people - then her, and Sokka and Aang, and coal - and a quick image of firebenders being swept over the edge of the ship... and then there's an image of the barrier, the wings, - and a flash to what she'd seen recorded of Jacob's death.))

From what I've heard - the Malnosso don't even have the ability to control who comes here and who goes home. They know more about Shifting than we do, but even when they experiment with us they don't really know what they're doing.

It's true that I don't know what's going on here - I've never been any place like this before, never seen anything like this - and that's why my only plan is to wait and see what I can learn, work with whoever I can in order to get us all home.

And if you have any better ideas, I'd love to hear it.
