Summary
Personal is political, especially for Princess Azula.
Set following Azula's escape from the asylum and her journey across the Fire Nation, Azula arrives alone and friendless in the Earth Kingdom, looking to carve out a purpose for a former child general in a post-war world.
Post canon Fire Nation political intrigue ft Tyzula slowburn
It can be read independent of All That Remains Is Smoke but I would recommend reading the whole series as part of Azula's ongoing redemption.

Summary
One time he let me put a whole fish by the cage of an armadillo bear. Keep low to the ground and speak softly, he told me. It didn’t take its eyes off me the whole time, but it didn’t snarl either.
Ty Lee does things sometimes and she doesn't know why. Most of the time they involve Azula.
Several years after the war, Ty Lee and Azula come face to face in the prison where she is being guarded.

Summary
Ty Lee’s heart thrilled in her chest. Azula sat on her heels, arrogant and composed as ever. But Ty Lee could read her like a book. She saw the way Azula avoided her eyes, avoided looking anywhere but her friend’s outstretched hands. It was so easy to ruffle her. Batting her eyelids, flattering her with a particularly adoring compliment, brushing the ends of her long hair over her arm as they walked past each other. Ty Lee did it all. Seeing the smallest twitch of a smile, or an imperceptible stammer in her words, or, her favourite, the slightest hint of pink on her cheeks was exhilarating, all the more for the rarity of anyone unsettling Azula. Anyone but Ty Lee of course.

Summary
Zuko remembers an evening several winters before, sitting on a shore not unlike this one. Suki had pointed to the ravens circling the bay, her green eyes cold and bright in the fading light as she told him of the strangeness of their life cycles—no sea raven ever remains in the same colony it is born into; once fledged, the young sea ravens set out alone across the sea, wandering for years before they finally nest in a new colony far from their own.

Summary
One day, three years after Azula banished her father to the Earth Kingdom for having the gall to cry when Zuko got his face burned off, Azula shows back up in Mai's life. Avatar—what Avatar—that's still a year away. "I have a bit of a problem," is all Azula says, and in Azula-speak, "a huge problem" is an unsightly crease on her pants, and "a bit of problem" meant that your house is on fire.
