• Book 1 out of 4 of "The Way To Save You" series. Scrapped the old summary. Here's a quick one: We have a purple Na'vi heroine, age 15. Her clan's dead. She survived 7 years of RDA experimentation. Mutated to have rapid regeneration. Her healing can be shared via blood-contact and tsaheylu. She escaped. Got caught by Mangkwan, turned into a slave healer. She escaped. Ultimately meets Neteyam and saves him when he gets shot. Story begins at the part where girly has already escaped the Mangkwan, and Neteyam and Lo'ak are just about to be promoted as scouts for the train raiding scene in ATWOW. This is an immersive longfic with World Building x 100 because I included references from the comics and from so many avatar wiki pages which I also explain in detail at bottom notes for those of you who only watched the movies. This Avatar - Neteyam AU fanfic: • is currently undergoing rewrites to "make it make sense." • has long chapters in the revised ones. (Avg. 7k words) • is canon-compliant (save for my own interpretation of incomplete souls and Spirit World rules). • is written in switching 3rd person POVs. • has lots of photos and terminology lists for your convenience (though I recommend reading this on AO3 where the terms are html embedded to tumblr redirects for quick definition) A SAMPLE OF MY WRITING (from an unrevised chap): "Listen to me," Neteyam said, his focus narrowing entirely on her, his brows furrowed with genuine concern. He shifted, his hand moving to cover hers where it rested, white-knuckled and trembling against her thigh. Her skin felt fever-hot against his palm, a sharp contrast to the cooling spray of the sea. "Focus on this," he told her, keeping his voice low and steady to cut through the sound of the surf. He needed her to stop staring at the horizon with those dead eyes. "Feel the weight of my hand. The salt on your skin. You are here, Hiraya. Right now. You're with me, and we're above the surface. Stay in the light."

• Book 2 out of 4 of "The Way To Save You" series. Hiraya te Salem Ka'art'ite has finally found a flicker of light in the blue depths of Awa'atlu. Under the protection of the Sully family and the steady hand of Neteyam, the fifteen-year-old sole survivor of the Terapatxi is learning to breathe again. But peace is a fragile thing for a ghost. ​When a ruthless shadow from her past appears on the horizon, Hiraya must stand her ground against a recurring nightmare and uphold her pride as a Terapatxi warrior. For the sake of an outcast friend, she must also choose whether to hide herself back into the shadows or to fight for what she believes is right - even if it means standing alone against the tide. In a journey of a deeper exploration into her identity, culture, a trauma with a past tormentor, and her relationship with the golden son of Toruk Makto, will the love between her and Neteyam prevail? Or will it be snuffed out by the unrelenting challenges for survival?

• Book 3 out of 4 of "The Way To Save You" series. Three years after the events of the Battle of the Cove of the Ancestors, the Mangkwan expansion threatens the peace of Pandora. Eighteen-year-olds Neteyam and Hiraya are then thrust into leadership over a volatile six-person strike team. Tasked with liberating slave outposts, the squad must integrate the Sully family's tactical brilliance with the grit of their fellow High Camp warriors. ​However, the team's greatest challenge isn't the enemy, but the biological cost of connection per healing, and the quiet tragedies Hiraya unearths of her late brother's past. ​Faced with the erosion of her privacy, her sanity, and the judgment of her peers, Hiraya must decide if she will grievingly retreat into isolation or redefine what it means to be a core member of the team - without giving up her role as the beloved half to Neteyam's heart.

• Book 4 out of 4 of "The Way To Save You" series. Two years after another wave of RDA reinforcements fueled the warring flames of Pandora, the twenty-year-old Hiraya has transitioned from a Terapatxi survivor to a battle-hardened leader of her own squad. While she navigates the escalating war, she discovers a new faction - a strategically organized, cultish clan who worships her regenerative gifts as a divine miracle. Compounding this burden of unwanted godhood is the sudden, impossible return of a friend she thought was lost forever. Forced to confront a recurring nightmare she could never quite escape, Hiraya must fight to keep her grip on the future she envisioned with Neteyam, and push through the grappling forces of survival, diplomacy, clan duty, and leadership. (Warning: Contains Avatar - Frontiers of Pandora Game Spoilers)
