Summary
Korra had was raised in a world very much unlike anything she would have had if she had grown up with her parents. By a cruel twist of fate - or simply another part of God's plan, according to her uncle - Senna and Tonraq were killed in a plane crash when she was just four years old. Unalaq, a zealous convert to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, adopted Korra and raised her, Desna, and Eska into the faith. Everything had seemed to work itself out, all thanks to the blessings the Church seemed to bestow the family. They were wealthy, and Korra had been a star athlete with big dreams of playing college basketball at Brigham Young University, the college affiliated with the Church.
Underneath that success story, however, was layers upon layers of hidden pain, building until Korra couldn't take it anymore, leaving behind the faith and her family alongside it. Now going to school at the University of Washington, Korra's path intertwines with her longtime friend Asami, even rooming together in the same dorm. Despite the two coming from vastly different worlds in matters of faith and position in life, they share an unshakeable bond that has stood the test of time and promises to blossom into something new.
