Wait... hold on... I think there is some fundamental miunderstanding here. The air-nomads were all slaughtered the day of Sozin's comet. The fire-benders launched a surprise series of attacks to almost elininate them all, which is why it is called the Genocide. As such, the moment Aang ran away, and by the time he got the news of it, they were all already dead. Except for Aang and the dozen or so people with John Wick. As such, he is not in some fantasy-land adventuring with kid Bumi, and is instead training to fulfil his role as avatar. Hope this helps... or maybe I remember something wrong from the original. Did it take a really long time to conduct the genocide of airbenders? Was it longer than say a few day? A week? A month? I thought they did it while the comet was there, boosting their firebending to the point the airbenders (the normal ones) could not do much against them. Correct me if I am wrong.

So you are saying the following are stupid decisions: Mc making a deal involving him fighting the fire nation (which he is already doing) at a later period in time, for peace and security for the remaining airbenders (many of whom are children and elderly people). the deal is made with a mysterious spirit he read about in the spirit library. Considering the fact that they are all collectively being hunted by the fire-nation, and even joining earth-kingdoms would send them into the same war, just without the automony to attack and retreat as they want since their numbers are too small to have a say in any decisions. Another point you think is stupid: Aang not falling in the water in the storm and being frozen for 100 years. Instead, he is alive and well, and actively learning the different types of bending. So a change in the original timeline is a stupid decision on my part, a change that would allow me to explore how this would change things is a stupid decision on my part? Sorry for not wanted to vomit out the original cartoon frame-for-frame... Anyways, as for Aang's character... I think you need to understand that his character was exactly this before the entire journey with his friends as he grows through experience, fights, and emotions. None of that has happened, and I beleive he would likely be this unlikable... I'm not sure what to say in this. But I do not beleive you not liking that fact that I have made him unlikable (assuming he was never unlikable) would result in a 1 star-review. Also, I have basically removed almost all the temporary reviews I had put up, and as soon as enough reviews appear, they will all be removed. So that part of your arguement is also gone...

I see. This I something I think I should work on. Especially if you do not feel the connect between events. It means my writing has not been good enough and I apologise on this part. As for not liking Amon being there, there is nothing I can do about that. I wanted him to be there, so he was. As for the exact circumstances, they will naturally be explained later

Also you have yet to tell me what stupid decisions he had made so far. Considering he is John Wick and not some dude from modern earth having the time and luxury to know about and watch atla. Plus, I'm not even sure it exists in the continental-verse

Well, all the airbenders and people in the world who know about him know him as Kalsang, so I keep that when they speak or think of him. When spirits or the man thinks or speaks about himself, or just third-person pov narration, I tend to keep him John as that is who he originally was. Anyways, this name altering won't remain for much longer.

Firstly thank you for the review. Well I also prefer SI stories, however I have seen to many going bout the same way for both avatar and for harry potter. The characters either follow around the main cast like puppies, or begin collecting women like some pokemon... or worse, both. Anyways, the few good ones involves the main character doing their own thing away from the Aang and gang. That was what I thought of when I first made this story. Secondly, I find it odd that you mention the fact that the povs keep changing. Yes, they change, but I find it quite simple to follow the story itself. an action1 happens from Aang's pov, then the same action continues from John Wick's pov. Then we switch over to the foreshadowing of an action 2 from the fire nation's pov, and then from JOhn's pov the action 2 happens. I don't get how this can be confusing. the pov's change, but the flow of the plot itself remains, which I have found it a very important part of storytelling. As long as you can maintain the flow and no go back and forth randomly, the reader (including myself for many other stories) should and have been able to understand everything. Also, I do mention that were are now talking from a new character's pov by taking their names and explaining who they are as well, which I felt should have been enough. As for the fact that the plot has too many unexpected plot points... I don't know what kind of story you would like then. This is the kind of story I like personally, but I suppose to each our own. Still, I would honestly find a story where nothing much happens being rather dull and pointless? Just a series of conversations, but nothing much happening... like a slow movie with bloated dialogue and no actual plot.

Alright imma give a few tips. I really like the novel so far. Not so sure about romance… but whatever goes. The plot is good and the story is progressing well. Just one thing I would like to inform you is your uploading schedule… it feels like a mess. Instead of waiting a lot of days then mass uploading, a better strategy is to constantly upload chapters at fixed intervals; 1 per day 1 per 2 days 1 per 3 days (at most is the chapters are long or really exceptional work) Anyways, really good work so far!!

Though… has a year actually passed? I’m not quite sure cause o had paused on reading this for a while and only now picked it back up.
