    See, this is why I have a few issues with Korra's story. Avatar Roku was such a prominent character in the roll of Aang's mentor, and was there to help and guide Aang all throughout the Last Airbender's journey. With Korra, even after she successfully awakened her Avatar state, still had little to no interaction with her previous lives whatsoever. It's like Aang was supposed to be her spirit guide, but instead just said 'eh. I've got living descendants that can give her advice instead. I'm sure she'll figure it out.' 😑

      She wasn't raised spiritually and was constantly being watched by her (then) mentors. From her pov I could see how she could want some independence. But I more so sympathize with the fact that she didn't have any spiritual role models or monks like aang did. Not to mention she never trains with tenzin until she's 17. That's 17 years of that way of life that hasn't been shown to her so honestly can't blame her.

    Huh, the scene with the tree root must be foreshadowing Sozin's later betrayal of Roku. He comes over to "help" his friend, then changes his mind and lets him fall to the ground instead. Which is basically what happens later at the volcano. Shows that Sozin isn't trustworthy, but Roku is blind to that/too forgiving. Really excellent writing.
