History Edit

When Aang visited the Spirit World seeking the help of Tui and La to save the Northern Water Tribe, he disturbed an odd spirit's meditation. A firefly passed by and the spirit suggested that Aang follow it, as it might lead him to what he was looking for. It led Aang to Avatar Roku, who told him about the spirit, Koh.^[2]

Months later, while in a coma after Azula's lightning attack,^[3] Aang was tasked with catching multiple Spirit World fireflies and placing them in a lantern. Once he completed the task, Roku's animal guide, Fang, appeared and guided him to Avatar Roku.^[4]

Anatomy Edit

The Spirit World firefly has large eyes, a wide prothorax, and long thorax with wings spreading back to a luminescent tail. The head is smaller than the rest of the creatures body and it has six legs. The tail is capable of producing a light bright enough to encompass the creature's entire body.
