It was the first time the young officer had been outside the Fire Nation. He was a member of the secret Pai Sho society, which was known for their use of Lotus tiles as identifiers between members.

An Earth Kingdom citizen gave the Fire Nation man a scroll.

“What this?” asked the young Fire Nation prince.

“It is a map of all the safe spots in Earth Kingdom,” the man explained in a hushed voice. “There the society will protect its members.”

“Thank you.”

“You would have done the same for me,” the man said to Iroh. He knew that what he was doing could be considered treason. He was helping a member of Fire Nation royalty.

Iroh could not believe what had just happened. This man was protecting him, like a brother would. But the man wasn’t even in the same nation as him; in fact their countries were at war. He knew Ozai would never do anything even close to helping him, he wondered if others brothers treated each other better.
