Attention, Region Six. A draft is scheduled to commence on August 25th for five days following. Your location will be the West Central Ocean, en route to Kano Harbour via three ships. Choose a suitable captain for each, and the pilots will be programmed to follow your orders. Don't waste my time with incompetence, either. Put in charge only those who deserve it.

These are the residents who have been selected to participate.

[As usual, the list posted HERE is offered in text form, sans the mun names.]

Your mission is to protect the cargo ship above all else. Within three days you will reach your destination. Opposition numbers, rank, and skill are impossible to predict, however, their equipment often prevents them from attacking at night. Remain on guard, but take advantage of the respite you may receive by night. Upon reaching the harbour, the cargo will be unloaded. You are to continue protecting it until it is safely out of range of their attacks. I would advise against swimming unless you want to die.

For those of you who were involved in the last draft, I have only one thing to say: your performance was acceptable.

Over and out.

[Once again, the commandant will not reply to anything but draft-related questions or particularly inspiring comments, so if you're looking for a response, be sure to give her something worth answering!]

Yes, I would. In the end, Sokka and I will make that decision together - probably along with Suki and Zuko and Toph who are all able warriors from our world. We have a responsibility to each other first.

But I can promise that we'll at least listen when it comes to dividing up who goes where. [Especially depending on who everyone determines to give command to. And she can make that promise because Archie seems okay, and so she'll listen, and she'll make the others listen as well.]

You should know the bending is like any other martial art - I can't keep it up forever, and I do have my limits. [...and then a little confident smile.] But I am a master.

[Still. Awesome.]

I cannot guarantee everyone will have their choice of captain. But I will keep you and your brother together. Tell me which captain you would choose, once you decide, and I will do my best.

[It's not really about your guarantees, and she bristles at that quietly. She just told you that they would decide where they went. But she's older now, and has started to learn a little bit of diplomacy.]

Once the captains are decided, we'll talk about it. And then I'll let you know.

[And he's used to order, and cooperation when something like this comes up. He has no doubt that she'll be with her first pick, though. Every ship will be wanting for crew.]

Thank you.

Ah - I almost forgot to mention it. Fortunately it looks like there are a good deal of healers going this time, but I'm a healer as well. It's not usually what I sign up for in drafts...

[It's just usually what I end up doing anyway.

It's good to have a healer on the front lines sometimes. And between bending, Nala, and what she's learned from various doctors, Katara's extremely good at field medicine. Her tone sobers a bit.]

But it usually comes in handy anyway.

Certainly mention it to your captain. Whoever he is, he will be lucky to have you.
