Katara was quiet, listening now. She didn't ask who the ally in the city was: if Sheeana wanted to tell her, she would have. For now, she just wanted to concentrate on what Sheeana was telling her. It was better than thinking about Aang alone, fighting against the god, and her here, powerless to stop it.

I can survive, she said to herself. And I can fight. That's all I need remember right now.

"If we need to use Spice, I will help you," Katara said. "I will do my best to prepare for that day. I know a few meditation techniques that will help me stay focused. I won't let you down."

Katara smiled. "You're welcome. I'm just glad I can be useful."
