Summary
After the war, Katara loses herself in the rhythms of tribal life. In the South Pole the moon is sovereign. Deep in the ice and snow, and in the heart of her element, it is easy to forget that there is a land of fire, smoke and ash- the kingdom of sun and dragons. Her journey with the Avatar slips into memory: a strange past life, shadowy and ephemeral.
But some things do not stay consigned to twilight, nor to history.
She is 20 years old when she sees him again.

Summary
Destiny is a funny thing. A split-second decision results in Zuko being injured during the escape from Pohuai Stronghold. Aang is determined to turn an enemy into a friend and, despite their doubts, Sokka and Katara find themselves also starting to better understand their erstwhile pursuer. For Katara and Zuko, this new understanding could even lead to something more.

Summary
His one eye burned fiercely into hers, his iris molten gold as only the Imperial Family’s were. In it she saw villages reduced to crumbling skeletons wreathed in flame, torchlight of some epic destruction; she saw the blaze of a funeral pyre, her mother wrapped in furs now only ash upon it.
It's a political arrangement. Most likely the best thing Katara could hope to do for the war effort. Not a surrender, an alliance.
If she had to give up her freedom for the lives of her people, so be it. She would dress the part, suffer the scorching heat of the Fire Nation climate, and assimilate into the culture of her mortal enemies. She would even lie with their prince.
She would never, ever, fall in love. Her heart was the one thing she had left—she would guard it with her life.

Summary
Chapters 19-29 of Once Around the Sun were later edited after considering feedback. At the request of readers, I’ve uploaded the original, unedited chapters here (along with the rest of the fic, for the sake of reader convenience).
