Kyoshi lived 230 years (6 Firelord generations starting with Zoryu) and Roku lived 70 years (2 Fire lord generations, Sozin and his Father), so in total 300 years of keeping the Fire Nation at bay, then Sozin took 12 years to complete his plan and execute starting the War.

    Sozin's ambition didn't come out of thin air. Fire nationalism and ambition existed since the time of Kyoshi. She did nothing but enabled Zoryu by helping him. Sozin being able to colonize Earth Kingdom territory ties back to Kyoshi ignoring Chin's conquering for way too long that weakened in Earth Kingdom unity by the time of Roku. @@henryokoro3140

    She overstepped. The avatar can't fully control other powerful spirits, like Tui and La (moon and ocean), Agni (fire), or Koh, so the threat falls through. Also, last time I checkee the avatar is supposed to keep peace between the nations. Not kill them all by causing an environmental disaster.

    Got to say, Zoyu is kinda right. People do not understand how unstable monarchies are. Hell in real life a single bad action could doom an entire line. Or a random servant could just stab you to death while you sleep. Which happened more then you would think in real life. Combine that with succession issues, unruly nobles, and the fact that no one enjoys being governed. It makes sense that he would want to punish those who attempted to destabilize the nation. As if you don't, the rule of law becomes pointless. And rebellion can spring up at any moment and cause untold destruction. Prime example of this Is martin luther, a man who wanted to spark debate within the church. So when he posted the worlds most devastating posted note on the church door. He lit the europ into mass rebellion accidentally. Leading thousands to die for pretty much nothing. In truth what he is doing is the right thing. As no mater what he dose their will be conflict. And if he shows any sign of weakness. he might wind up waking up to a knife in his throat just like so many monarchs did. As who is a fire lord but a simple man? a man that can die as easily as anyone else.

    It is quite awesome to see a video on the depiction of The Shadow of Kyoshi chapter "Housecleaning", considering that it is the first one to depict a full chapter of illustrations accompanied with narration. The pacing of the illustrations with the narration is well done, as relevant sections of the illustrations align with the narration. The pacing helps with the expression of the descriptions and the thoughts of the characters. It was nice to see illustrations of flashbacks to The Rise of Kyoshi as it added more context to the thoughts of Kyoshi. The flashback to the brutal lei tai that Kyoshi couldn't bear to look at as she nearly threw up back when she arrived in Huijang in "The Town" provides more insight onto Kyoshi's sense of justice as she leans towards mercy. The flashback to the moment where Kyoshi sprinkled fire lily petals onto Yun's face while he rested on her lap in a gifting room nine months prior to "Desperate Measures" provides an example of how connected Kyoshi feels towards Yun. It provides insight on why Kyoshi is so adamant on holding out hope for Yun throughout the story as she still remembers the positive experiences she had with him. To be true, I never expected to see a depiction of the fire lilies scene from The Rise of Kyoshi, however, it was a pleasant surprise. The illustrations of other chapters of The Shadow of Kyoshi also added more context to the thoughts of Kyoshi, especially in regards to her thoughts on Yun. Some examples include Yun holding Lu Beifong's body at the Royal Gallery at the Royal Fire Nation Palace and Yun stabbing Hei-Ran in the throat with an earthen spike. Both of these moments show the unhinged nature of Yun as he seems delighted when he commits atrocities out of vengeance. The additional illustrations were quite nice, some examples including the depiction of the arrest of Chaejin and Huazo as well as the depiction of Koulin moments before she would be subject to the punishment Zoryu gave to the Saowon, execution for alleged treachery. The illustration of Hei-Ran putting her hand on the face of Rangi who is crying while the two of them are at Agna Q'ela after the events of The Rise of Kyoshi is emotional as both of them have suffered at the hands of Jianzhu and they had nearly lost each other. The illustration of earthen spikes stained with blood serves as a chilling reminder of how Yun was physically harmed by Jianzhu since he couldn't prove he was the Avatar and it signifies how he was on the receiving end of an abusive relationship with Jianzhu. The illustration of Kyoshi and Rangi alongside each other with daofei face paint in an area with a clear sky with their backs faced towards Yun, who is in a brown swampland, trying to reach out to Kyoshi as she the one closest to him, while Father Glowworm's tendrils are wrapped around him is heart-rending. The illustration is thematic as it shows Yun's desire to be the Avatar and have the support of his friends as he is clinging onto the past, whereas Kyoshi and Rangi are moving forward and not looking back, however, Kyoshi is slightly behind Rangi this suggests that she might struggle with moving on from the past. The illustration conveys that Yun is alone whereas Kyoshi and Rangi have each other, Yun's loneliness may have been a reason as to why Yun turned towards vengeance as he could have viewed his isolation as his abandonment at the hands of everyone.

    I've always thought that instead of "Legend of Korra" they should have used one of the earlier avatars like Kyoshi. It would have been a chance to start fresh while using the same world and history. With LoK, it was too close to Aang so all anyone cared about was what happened to the old characters. And as a result LoK is forever a reminder that it is not the Last Air Bender.

    But that's the fandom's fault for not trying to appreciate The Legend of Korra as its own series, but as a sequal to Avatar The Last Airbender. And in a world were we didn't get TLoK, people would absolutely be asking for an Avatar story of what happened after Aang, just like how people do want to see the Avatar after Korra. Id argue that Rise/Shadow of Kyoshi is made even better with the context of TLoK, such as the whole thing with the dark spirits, a water tribe Avatar struggling to live up to the legend of their Airbender Avatar predecessor, seeing the contrast of an Avatar who was denied their Avatarhood in contrast to one who made it their whole identity, etc.

    ​​@@lincolnbeckett8791well it is sequel, and it's not even good on it's own. I blame the seasonal format it got oversaturated. Every season feels disjointed that you can watch every season without knowledge of others and it wouldn't matter, it feels like they are just trying one up each season and not create a coherent story. They should have just focused on the equalist then leave the spirit shenanigans to the next avatar. Yes, I'm aware they were originally planning a single season but that's not an excuse for whatever season 2 is, they could have easily integrate equalist remnants or sympathetizers as villains the stake doesn't need to be over the top for it to be high, if you think about it aang only dealt with a warmonger.

Instead of just forcing all the warring fire states to unite he decided to be a official because he could change the system from within and enact lasting change. He’s in a weird spot like Kuruk was before the Kyoshi novels; we know basically nothing about him. If you remember, before the novels expanded on what Kuruk did during his life, everyone called him the “lazy avatar” and “worst avatar” so I’ll hold judgement since we only have one piece of information about him and it’s that he fixed the fire nation when it was tearing itself apart.

Because if they "break diplomatic relationships" or something like that makes me wonder if Kyoshi held a resentment towards the Fire Lord (I know this fire Lord was right about Yun but that doesn't mean Kyoshi won't hold her grudge.) And if Kyoshi held the grudge, would that mean Roku was immeaditely alert the moment Sozin proposed the Expansion into the colonies, because of past-live experience? I don't know but it's too cool of an idea to pass up.
