They could do worse, and they probably will

I like that they establish over the course of the history of Avatar that they establish that the Avatar's RPG party of companions essentially form an extension of the political institution of the Avatar who get to effectively serve as regents when the Avatar dies until the next one is old enough

Recently learned of the theory that the word "Khan" doesn't actually arise from Turkic or Mongolic languages but possibly an earlier Yeniseian language, a family confined to Siberia in modern times but possibly further south in ancient times (the Xiongnu may have spoken a Yeniseian language)

In theory firelord Ozai's power to do violence is really mostly his political authority more than his direct ability to do violence, so we must think of Aang taking his bending away kind of like a Byzantine emperor destroying his opponents legitimacy by blinding him

Then you boot up ATLA and with the benefit of hindsight it's obvious they had the Kataang endgame on deck from the very beginning. I don't think one of these is better or worse tbh I think there's a naturalism to the writers just figuring out the romance as it comes

Afaik the production lore in this is that the decision to go for a Korrasami endgame was a pre-S3 idea. They kind of walked backwards into it. But when you're limiting your view to S1 it's like "what, why is any of this here"

If I were a Roman general leading legions stationed on the frontier I could easily declare myself emperor and march on The City. I would mint the most beautiful silver Denarii with my face on it and I would have the coolest purple toga. It would be easy for me
