Synopsis
Trapped in ice for 100 years, Aang must return to restore balance to the Four Nations
Avatar: The Last Airbender takes place in a world where many humans can wield the power of the elements. However, only the avatar can control all four. This gives them the responsibility to maintain balance across the four nations. But when Avatar Aang gets frozen in ice for 100 years, the world is shaken by the rise of the Fire Nation empire. Once Aang is awoken by Katara and her brother, they embark on a mission across the world.
