The Fall of the Fire Empire (Fanfic)	comment	Avatar: The Fall of the Fire Empire is an Avatar: The Last Airbender fanfic by contributor Master Ghandalf who surprisingly also wrote the Azula Trilogy and Destinies Rewritten. It's an AU story in which Aang was quickly defeated at some point in season one, and the Fire Nation took over the world and became the Fire Empire. Several decades later, an elderly Azula still rules the Empire with an iron fist as the Dragon Empress, with the Earth Kingdom completely enslaved and the Water Tribes reduced to a few scattered villages. In this dark future, we follow three main viewpoint characters, one from each of the remaining nations:Jiazin is the daughter of the governor of Long Du Shi (formerly Ba Sing Se), and almost as much of a teenage firebending prodigy as Azula. She is summoned to the Empress' palace for a mysterious mission, but soon finds herself a pawn for both Azula and her spymaster Qing Xi.Tong is an earthbending slave who rebels and kills his master, then falls in with other rebels who hide out in the tunnels under Lake Laogai.Kanoda has spent his life listening to the tragic heroic legends of Sokka and Katara, and decides to go off himself to become a hero. But he finds it's not as easy as it sounds when he's captured by the Chosen, Azula's elite order of female warriors.These three storylines gradually draw closer together as the heroes learn of each other's presence, and work together to finally overthrow the Fire Empire. Naturally, appearances by canon characters are relatively rare, but the OCs here are all very good in their own right, and the story is complex and full of plot twists that will keep you engaged.In the sequel, Legacy of the Fire Empire, Kanoda must deal with a new threat five years after the Fall.The author has now completed a "special edition" with revision and commentary. It can be found here.

Right now, avoiding the author's profile is the best way to avoid spoiling oneself about this, but avoiding the summary whilst browsing helps as well.

In a similar case to Zhao and Yuan, the current Admiral Chan is a descendant of the Admiral Chan mentioned during Avatar: The Last Airbender, and possibly related to the Chan who appeared in "The Beach".

The Fall of the Fire Empire (Fanfic) / int_9ff2b000	comment	The Consigliere: Qing Xi is nearly as smart as Azula, far less charismatic, and decidedly more rational, which puts him in the position of being the one whose cool logic backs up her grand schemes. It's also why, when she goes completely off the deep end, she takes pains to hide her plans from him, since she knows he wouldn't stand for it. Technically this is part of the High Ministers job; most of them end up getting too pushy about it and get themselves fired... literally. The fact that QX has lasted as long as he has speaks to his competence.

Yu Shan, the playwright who penned the play about Azula and her triumphs, is a reference to Shan Yu, the main villain of Mulan, but with the syllables switched.
