Four men, their outer shells ghostly pale, sat in a circle, each staring grimly into the distance. One man had long, white hair, both on his head and face. A pipe was in his mouth, and he had a large build, like that of an earthbender. The next man on his right was also very tall, his face grave and wrinkled. Again, he had a long, white beard, and long, white hair. His amber eyes glittered.
Next to him was a young looking water tribe man. His hair was dark and hung in dreads, and the smallest of smiles lay on his face. And next to him was a bald man, obviously a monk, a blue arrow pasted on his head. His eyes were wrinkled from years of stress, and a burn lay on his arm.
"After the failure of Avatar Kiyon," Began Avatar Aang, his voice soft. "We must seriously reconsider how things are run. The world is obviously at a great peace, unlikely to be interuppted for many generations. No man need the powers of the avatars passed, and the great spirits are thinking of ending the cycle completly. This cannot happen, however. Someday, it will be needed again. What can we do?"
"Perhaps it would be wise to give the power, not to one man or woman alone, but to four. Each from the nations. Grant them power beyond that of their kin, so that they may come together and defend the world, when it is needed." Avatar Roku broke in, his voice wise.
"Yes. That would be wise." The earth avatar, whose name is unknown, agreed. "We shall suggest it to the spirits, and they will do as they see fit...."
And so they did. And the spirits agreed with the idea, deciding to give each 'avatar' the power of the original benders of their nation. For many generations the peace the world was going through continued, and although the avatars were born, they were not truley needed, and so for a long time, they never met.
However, many generations later, the spirits began to sense a great darkness in the world, building, threatning to overspill. And in the world, four babies cried in their mothers arms, unaware of the destiny they would face...
