TLoK's production order has Books 1 and 2 as, technically, being a part of the same first season. But what if this went beyond technicalities? What if "Book 1: Air" and "Book 2: Spirits" were merged together into a single Avatar book.

So in this thread, let's speculate on how you'd merge both books together to tell a single story. One that features Amon, Tarrlok, Hiroshi, Vaatu, Tonraq, Varrick... the pro-bending arc, the War of the Water Tribes, Bolin's movie career, the Equalist revolt, and the Harmonic Convergence.

ALL in one 20 episode season, like AtLA had.

How do you see "Book ∀1: Air Spirits" play out?

I like this idea! Okay okay, so how bout

Republic City falls to the Equalists and Iroh II's failed assault leaves Team Avatar no choice but to retreat to the Southern Water Tribe. There are three storylines

Tenzin, instead of going on vacation with his family, joins up with Bumi to try and convince the Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation to send troops. Kya shows up in one somewhere in this in some capacity. She might be organizing a relief effort or something for displaced refugees.

Korra, Mako, Bolin and Asami are in the Southern Water Tribe trying to convince them to join them to join as well. Unalaq arrives and declares a state of martial law because of the threat of Equalist sympathizers. Korra is initially on board until her father is framed.

Meanwhile back in Republic City, Lin has escaped from the Equalists after having her bending sealed and is fighting a desperate guerilla war with Tarrlock, who has also escaped. This storyline eventually reveals that Amon is Noatok.

I don't know how to work in Harmonic Convergence.

Make it so Air happens when Korra goes to Republic City for civil-war stuff.

The rest figures itself out.

Easiest way to fit in Harmonic Convergence is change around Amon's motivation. Frankly, I'd drop out the book 2 brother's plotline and merge Amon and Unaloq into one. After escaping his abusive father, Noatok goes on a journey of soul searching. He ends up in the spirit world and eventually to the place where Vaatu is imprisoned. Vaatu convinces him that the destructive nature of people like his father and the corruption of modern bending into stuff like bloodbending is because of his imprisonment and the severing of the two worlds by the Avatar. Amon decides to return and purge the world of bending with the endgame of releasing Vaatu to remake it into a better place. Amon would probably like the idea of the lionturtles granting bending only when it was necessary then taking it back; he'd probably get some idealistic idea that they gave it only to the just. I guess you could keep Unaloq and have him be swayed by Amon's reasoning into helping out.

Both seasons make up 26 episodes and probably do not need to be changed much.

It'll just have a mid-season break inbetween.

Skip Air. Amon didn't really add anything, and there's enough of the Water Tribe sibling stuff happening in Spirits. Have everyone just meet in the opening episodes (Making Spirit about 20); Korra escapes the compound because she senses something otherworldly about this Civil War and goes to Republic City to get spiritual help from Tenzin to better ascertain the threat and learn airbending while she's there, Bolin and Mako are part of a pro-bending "tour" that entertains the troops, Asami is providing war machines to Republic City to maintain its neutrality after her father was assassinated, Lin's basically the same, etc. etc., then the Dark Spirits come in and its pretty much regular Season 2 from then on.
