Summary
While disguised as the Blue Spirit, Zuko is caught by the Dai Li who are determined to make sure this thief will never cause trouble again. And what better way to do so then to erase his memory and make him believe he is solely tea server Lee, a loyal Earth Kingdom citizen? But tampering with Zuko’s memory has unintended, deadly consequences, as his inner flame is being extinguished by this new life of lies. Iroh has no idea what to do, who he can turn to, when fate delivers Katara to the tea shop. She’s not sure she can help restore Zuko’s memories, but the bigger question is… should she even do so?
