In the graphic novel canon, Korra begs her to accompany Team Avatar to Gaoling, where King Wu hopes that she would run for governor against the dangerous Commander Guan. However, once this has been accomplished, she pleasantly leaves them behind again, wisely stating that the world's future belongs to the new generation. RELATED: Avatar: 10 Things You Need To Know About Energybending It makes total sense for her to have done this, though, because it's the best way for her to truly understand the root of Earthbending (as well as the spiritual nature of the world that her younger version had scoffed at.) Toph emerges from time to time, first when she meets Avatar Korra, and later when she needs to rescue her child and grandchildren from the clutches of the Earth Empire dictator, Kuvira. Having grown disillusioned with her job as the Chief of Police, Toph Beifong "retires" to the Foggy Swamp, where she spends her days living in a cave and pretty much being the wild child she once was. The exact date of his death has not been established. When Korra is around five years old, the Red Lotus tries to kidnap her, but they are foiled by a dream team consisting of Fire Lord Zuko, Tonraq, Tenzin, as well as Sokka. When he's around 43 years old, Sokka represents the Southern Water Tribe on the five-member panel of the United Republic of Nations Council, serving for a short period as its moderator as well.Īpparently, he is the reason that Tenzin's acrobatic skills and tactical intelligence are so highly developed, as he drills it into his nephew's head that bending is not the solution to all problems (something he is quite experienced with, after his adventures with a group of overpowered benders.) Sokka retires from the UNR Council at a later date, after which he is chosen as the Chief of his tribe, following in the footsteps of his father and idol, Hakoda. Sokka travels with Team Avatar immediately following the Hundred Year War, helping Aang and Katara maintain some semblance of harmony among the fractured communities rapidly developing in the light of changing world politics. 4 Sokka Became The Southern Water Tribe Chief She assists the Avatar in getting back on her feet, literally, after the Red Lotus fiasco causes some serious damage to Korra's physical and mental health. RELATED: The Legend Of Korra: 10 Things About Korra That Make No SenseĪt the end of The Legend of Korra, Katara is 89 years old but still as spry as ever, not to mention eternally encouraging. Still, Kya mentions that she stays with her mother the most (with a small amount of frustration aimed at her siblings for their alleged lack of responsibility.) However, not very regularly as they all have lives of their own - Tenzin is in charge of the Air Nomads, Bumi retires and lives with his younger brother. Katara receives visits from her children now and then. In fact, she is Korra's teacher, explaining why the new Avatar's skills are spectacular right off the bat. After her husband's death, Katara goes back to her home in the Southern Water Tribe, where she establishes a new life there as a Master Healer and Waterbending trainer.
