Avatar The Last Airbender Book 3 Fire Episode 18 Sozin's Comet, Part 1: The Phoenix King Episode Title: Sozin's Comet, Part 1: The Phoenix King Episode Description: Aang has decided to fight Ozai after Sozin's Comet passes, needing more time to master firebending. Zuko derails this plan by revealing that Ozai intends to burn the entire Earth Kingdom continent to ashes with the comet's power, having learned of this plan from the war meeting on the day before the eclipse. The gang begins a frantic training regimen while Aang struggles with his responsibilities: his friends instruct him to simply kill Ozai, but Aang clings to the pacifist beliefs of his Air Nomad heritage. In his sleep, Aang is drawn towards a mysterious island and is followed by Momo. The next day, Aang's friends search all of Ember Island for Aang with no success. Desperate, Zuko takes them to find June the bounty hunter to attempt to locate Aang. June's pet shirshu is unable to track Aang's scent at all, leading June to say that Aang no longer exists but is not dead. Ozai bequeaths the Fire Nation throne to Azula and declares himself "The Phoenix King", supreme ruler of the world, while Aang awakens on the unknown island.
