In the end . . .

I do not know. I do not think. I cannot.

I lay, exhausted, out of breath.

I failed.

I wish to live longer in this world of which we dreamed; a world of peace.

Sokka, Toph, Zuko, I'm sorry.

It's been a few months, I know, but I cannot turn the page.

I lost everything: more than gold, more than the world, more than my own life.

I am going to rejoin her. The world will find a new avatar.

My friends: thank you for following me during these three years.

I bid you farewell.

I will see Katara again after these dark nights.

Goodbye. In another world,

Aang
