Two days ago, the former Fire Lord Ozai agreed to surrender his false claim to the throne without a fight, in order to stop the wave of assassination attempts that had plagued him. His actions were commendable; the capital is currently far more peaceful and stable than it was even yesterday, and it grows more so by the hour. He is currently being kept under house arrest in his wing of the palace-- access to the community has not been denied him, but no worldhoppers will be allowed in or out. I, of course, have returned to take my rightful place as Fire L--

[Suddenly the door bangs open, and a man's voice can be heard shouting:]

Ozai is the true Fire Lord! Anyone who says otherwise is a traitor, and traitors must die!

[There's the sound of a struggle, and of fire crackling, and then the audio cuts out]

OOC: All replies will be forward-dated by about an hour, she will totally talk out of her ass and insist that the Fire Nation capital is less chaotic and dangerous than it obviously is, etc., etc.

EDIT: OKAY SO I just realized that I'm not getting email notifs; bear with me and fail!LJ. :|

One of my father's supporters. Rebels, nothing more.

[ofhopeandglory.livejournal.com]

Rebellions can easily get out of hand.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

That's why I'm here.

[ofhopeandglory.livejournal.com]

So that you can make yourself an easier target?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

To keep the rebellion from getting out of hand.

[ofhopeandglory.livejournal.com]

Forgive me for saying so, but you've been back two days and you've already almost been assassinated. If things aren't out of hand right now, then they could certainly head that way quite quickly.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Which is why I'm here. Are you being intentionally stupid?

Besides, I wasn't almost assassinated. It was a lazy attempt.

[ofhopeandglory.livejournal.com]

This time.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Public figures always have to take that chance, especially in times like this.

[ofhopeandglory.livejournal.com]

True enough. But at least tell me that after that little display you've got decent protection in place for yourself. If that attempt had been half as lazy as you say, he shouldn't have been able to get near you like that.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

... One of the guards let him in; they were working together. I have plenty of protection, it's just that a lot of it's untrustworthy.

I don't see how any of this is your business.

[ofhopeandglory.livejournal.com]

Very well, I won't ask any more.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Good.
