I’m trying to get back into the rhythm of drawing comics. Now I know that for the majority of you, this makes little to no sense...because it starts in the middle of a story. Perhaps this may clear things up:

Misora, the protagonist here, is sharing a dream with her ex-boyfriend Blade. This dream is where they are taken back to Misora’s tragic past, and Blade is trying to fix it.

For the first seven years of Misora’s life, she lived in an underground civilization (literally considering themselves “the Underground”) of airbenders who managed to escape the Fire Nation invasion 100 years ago, and have been living deep in the mountains of the Earth Kingdom ever since. Some of these quasi-monks go out on excursions into the Earth Kingdom villages in order to gather food and such, and they have relatively good fighting ability. After some family issues, Misora and her father, Jirou, ran away from the Underground and lived with a middle-class woman, Bao Yu, in a village. However, three years later, Jirou was captured by the Fire Nation and convicted of aiding the avatar, and was tortured for information on the Underground. In desperation, Jirou gave them the location. Not long after that, the Fire Nation set out an army to the Underground and launched a surprise attack, killing everyone, and using Jirou’s skeleton as a warning not to oppose the Fire Nation. Misora, who was under the care of Bao Yu all this time, has only heard the news that her father is dead. Wanting to tell the Underground this news, she sets out to the Underground with the help of Bao Yu and some others. Misora walks alone part of the way...only to be surrounded by rubble and the burnt corpses of her fellow airbenders, as well as her father...below a Fire Nation flag, to serve to the avatar as a warning that he has nowhere to hide. Misora becomes completely traumatized....but luckily, months later, a young man named Karik Nashimoto helps her heal, and they become very close friends. Eventually they run away together, and other teenagers gather with them as they travelled around the Earth Kingdom. Some of these teenagers included Azealya Naiite, Alinora Juri, Blade Okizama and Riku Tsubaka...the latter two making a big impact in Misora’s life.

Misora had been in love with Karik for quite a while...but after he fell for another girl, she was crushed. When she was fifteen, Blade told her that he loved her...and she fell for him for the mere fact that she is loved. He ends up cheating on her...and she feels completely and utterly betrayed. She ends up talking to Riku, who was quite withdrawn from everyone at the time, and never really wanted to talk to anyone...but he coped with her, and tried to comfort her. Misora thought she had a crush on him, but it was more of a longing to get to know him...he seemed intriguing somehow. The more they talked and spent their time together, they fell in love. Misora has been heavily attached to Riku ever since. As Misora finds out later in their relationship, Riku is the son of a sun warrior chief. It took her a while to realize how this would impact them, until they go through some emotional hell in order for her to finally become accepted into the Tsubaka tribe - meaning Riku’s father settled an engagement between them. Of course, this makes Misora happier than ever. Hence, their relationship continues to grow as fiancees, and after some intense and violent stuff going on (having deadly encounters with the Fire Nation, that is), they finally decide to go back to the sun warrior island, where they are at the current time. Misora now spends her days learning more about the sun warrior ways of life, and preparing for the duties of a chief’s wife. She now feels at peace...and finally feels like she belongs to a family.

However, in this dream, Misora and Blade are taken back to Misora’s past, specifically after Jirou is dead and before the Fire Nation invasion. Blade ends up aiding the Underground, and in result they win against the Fire Nation soldiers. This obviously changes Misora’s past tremendously - but is it for the worse or the better? In result of the victory...Misora would have returned to the Underground, tell everyone of Jirou’s death...and would remain at the Underground for the majority of her young life, never meeting Riku.

Now, at this time, Misora is in her monk clothes, and is trying to take in this whole situation. She is my character. Riku belongs to

And yeah...I was crying through the majority of this thing.

Not necessarily. This is when she's walking away from him, so unless he shows up in the rp, he won't show up in this.
