[She nods solemnly.] I've learned about sha chi. Some benders make their attacks more powerful by directing it, but only when they want to hurt someone badly. [There's a reason it's also called killing chi.] I never thought about what would happen if someone lived in a place with a lot of sha chi... I guess that would pollute their chakras and their mind.

[But let's talk about books again!] Science fiction? I don't know what that is. [Jinora perks up at the mention of someone else her age--who likes to read, no less!] I wonder if I've seen him. I don't usually talk to anyone.

[Talking about sha chi has her thinking and she can't fully draw her mind away from it.] Li? Have you lived around a lot of sha chi?
