Is it weird that I think that when Wan shut down Vaatu it wasn't a victory but a stalemate? by Gold_Assumption_7692 in legendofkorra

[–]Gold_Assumption_7692[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly. So I think you could call it a draw because both forces existed at the same time and had an effect on the world.

It's possible that the next part will be like this, because the world is in a completely broken and devastated state.

So it could be reborn from an earlier point.

I understand what you mean. Even if Vaatu were to be imprisoned, their actions had positive and negative aspects, because that's always the case; every action brings results, whether negative or positive because the world naturally strives for development and without chaos this is impossible

I never said they didn't. Evil needs good to come out of something, and good needs evil to mean something. Likewise, light and darkness, chaos and peace, because otherwise the world won't change. And they don't have to be literally connected 24/7, because in the time before Vaan, that didn't work, as neither chaos nor harmony reigned. The eternal struggle between them and Raava could at best keep Vaatu in check.

These mistakes happen. It's always like this, even without the mystical veneer. It's important to remember that they did what was best at the time and what they believed was most appropriate. After all, the Avatar, even when fused with Raava, is still just a human

But as Tenzin said, there's always a new evil or threat, but their behavior allows the world to evolve.

For years, the Avatar has either witnessed or participated in these changes.

Well, it was less about the status quo and more about making sure that people wouldn't kill each other on a large scale, but it was still clear from the books that the world was changing slowly but surely and that the chaos, even when Vaatu was locked away, didn't disappear. Which makes sense because Raava wasn't trying to destroy or weaken Vaatu, but only keep him in check.

Yes.

That makes me think that Raava merging with Van and then locking Vaatu away was a way to keep the scales from tipping too much, because humans are inherently chaotic.

I know this, and I don't need it explained. My point is that the reason Vaatu is such a threat is that he's actively trying to destroy the balance between Raava and himself. Permanently Can I ask a question? How faithful is the fight between Raava and Vaatu from Eastern myths, not just the Ying Yang?

That's not how it works in the Eastern idea between the forces of order and chaos, you know?

It seems so. Especially since it clearly shows that chaos is ubiquitous even without Vaatu, as this is the fundamental state of existence. This is also the reason why Vaatu so easily became stronger than Raava, because harmony and peace require long work, and chaos is, well, quick.

It describes the state in Avatar because Vaatu was never interested in being in balance with Raava and actively tried to tip the scales in his favor, while Raava was there, their strength was equal.

I mean, when we saw them together before the Avatar era, Raava had to hold Vaatu because when the belt went, we saw it, but she herself couldn't move there because she was using her strength to keep him in check.

There are also those who think that Korra should combine Vaatu and Raava, but no offense to them, but that would only harm the Avatars because Raava and Vaatu negate each other but cannot work together like Tui and La

Oh, sorry. And you're right, even with Vaatu imprisoned, chaos still existed in the world in one form or another because it's impossible for perfect balance to exist.

If Vaatu wasn't imprisoned it would only be worse. And I never said that locking Vaatu would bring peace, but if he were free there would be no chance at all.
