| - While navigating through the tunnels and having been separated from Sokka and the singing nomads, Katara, Aang, and Appa discovered the tomb hidden deep inside the mountain. Initially, they believed they had found the exit of the labyrinth, but after Appa knocked down the large stone sealing the entrance and the light of their torches fell upon two large sarcophagi resting on an enormous round stone, they realized it was a tomb. Engraved in the sides of the resting stone was the story of Oma and Shu, telling the tale of two lovers, now forever resting together in the tomb.

| - While navigating through the tunnels and having been separated from Sokka and the singing nomads, Katara, Aang, and Appa discovered the tomb hidden deep inside the mountain. Initially, they believed they had found the exit of the labyrinth, but after Appa knocked down the large stone sealing the entrance and the light of their torches fell upon two large sarcophagi resting on an enormous round stone, they realized it was a tomb. Engraved in the sides of the resting stone was the story of Oma and Shu, telling the tale of two lovers, now forever resting together in the tomb. After having read the story, Aang and Katara turned around to find a large statue of a younger Oma and Shu kissing, with the message "Love is brightest in the dark." The combination of the curse telling that no one would ever get out of the tunnel alive, unless they placed their trust in love, and the inscription of the statue accompanied with the depiction of the kiss, prompted Katara to suggest that she and Aang kiss in order to get out of the tunnels. Mesmerized by the idea of it, Aang attempted to hide his infatuation by stating that he did not want to kiss Katara. His awkward attempts to give a positive spin to his remark only made matters worse, and Katara, annoyed and hurt by his words, stormed out of the tomb, leaving Aang to wonder what was wrong with him.
