[ At some point, the tiny airbender's pulled away from the group she's with. Possibly saying she wants to meditate for a few minutes-- which isn't a complete and total lie. She did meditate, she needs peace and quiet sometimes-- after all. But eventually, she pulled out the items she was given as a recent boon. A wooden air bison and some images of her family. She hasn't shown anyone else them yet, but she keeps them on her at all times.
She reflects on what she wants to say once more-- She'd thought about it a hundred times. During the event where they were chasing he moon, during her conversation with King Ridire, and even during Samhain. It was then, too, that she'd received these gifts and it had only fortified her thoughts. Still, Jinora had waited. Korra hadn't wanted her to say anything for a while, but that was a lie to herself she couldn't hold any longer. And the images of her family only made that more true.
So, when the locket's video turns on it's to the younger sitting a bit away from the others with a collection of images. The viewer may catch a glimpse of one or two as she tucks them away-- a family adorned in the familiar orange and red she wears in any one of them. They're not the focus and so she lets out a breath. Far more hesitant and less questioning than her first appearance, but she tries to smile softly. ]
Hi, again. I'm Jinora.
[It's a simple introduction followed be a formal bow. The smile remains as she raises back up, but the hesitance doesn't waver.]
A lot of you know Korra, Mako, and Bolin. We're all from the same world where people can control, or bend, the elements. There's ones for fire, earth, water, and air.Our world is full of them and I'm an Airbender. But, you see, for as long as I've been alive I've been the second oldest Airbender in the entire world.
[She pauses briefly to let that sink in, reaching to pick up the tiny figure of the air bison with an uncertain look. ]
I know that doesn't mean anything to anyone else, but I wanted to explain. You see, over a hundred years ago the Air Nation was wiped out. For a long time, everyone thought that there was no more Air Nation-- no more Airbenders. But my grandpa, Avatar Aang, had been frozen and reappeared seventy years ago. He was the last Airbender.
The Air Nation is a peaceful people. Before, we lived away from other nations and in temples where we'd free ourselves of material desires. We only wish to live in harmony with the world and respect all living things. Freedom and peace are really important to us. Grandpa Aang loved our culture... But he and his friends had to stop the Fire Nation from taking over the entire world. He worked hard to continue our beliefs and defeated the Fire Lord without killing him... The world returned to peace.
But Grandpa Aang was still the last of our people for a long time. Then daddy was born and he wasn't alone... But one day, Grandpa Aang died and he was alone this time. A few years later I was born, then Ikki, then Meelo. Gran-Gran says little Rohan will be an Airbender, too. But daddy's no alone anymore. We even had a miracle happen! A few weeks ago the world changed and now there's a whole new generation of Airbenders appearing.
[Another small pause. She tries to weight if she's said too much-- probably. But at the same time she didn't know how to say too little and if too little would make it more complicated. Besides, there was a point here.]
I believe this war can be ended without hurting anyone. I don't think fighting each other is going to solve anything. One side or the other can't be right. It feels like everything here is one side of the same coin-- they need each other. But I know... not everyone believes that. There are lots of people who want to fight and will fight because they think it's the only answer...
But it's not. I refuse to think that it's the only way. There's a lot of us here-- a lot of us who don't want to hurt people!-- a lot of us who just want to live in peace and be free... Everyone should... I guess what I'm trying to say is bad things happen, but people can change them for the better--
That's why, I won't fight. I'm going to find a way to help resolve this war without violence and bring peace. So everyone here can be free... Just like Grandpa Aang would.
You're free to think that's naive or silly, but I'm going to.
[...And it's with that note she finally wraps it up and puts it at an end there. Hope you enjoyed your daily tiny airbenders trying to encourage peace.]
