    The clue came when Azula said in a soft voice that Azulon passed away, now why would she say he's passed away like that? That got me thinking...what's a way for someone to pass away suddenly when you're an old man? Heart attack. Here's what I think happend:

    After Azula came to Zuko saying "Dad's going to kill you." Ursa questioned Azula and learned what happened after she left. Ursa rushes to Azulon, and pleads that Azulon doesn't banish Zuko(that's how Zuko would be sacrificed), but his decision was final. So, she saves her baby the only way a mother can, she bites him back. She challenges Azulon to Agni Kai, if she wins, Zuko doesn't get banished and Ozai is to suceed Azulon as Fire Lord, but if she loses, she'd be banished instead of Zuko and Iroh would still be next in line. Azulon even despite being older is more powerful than Ursa, but the strain of the battle is too much for Azulon's aging heart. But,(this is key to my whole theory) Agni Kai's are by law non-lethal events. If the other combatant is killed in battle by the other(directly or indirectly in this case) the "winner" is banished.

    I originally had this in Spoilers & Speculation, but I want honest response on this and this seemed worthy of a seperate thread.



    erm or Azulon was simply killed by his son and Ursa ran away.

    That doesn't explain the "Everything I've done, I did to protect you." line.

    awsome theory! i think u might be right, exept??i have??a few theorys of my own on this. ok, so i think that azulon threatend to kill/banish zuko. ozai didnt disobey his father, but ursa found out, either by azula or overhearing a conversation. she goes to azulon and asks if she can take zukos place, and that he will baish/ kill her instead, in order to protect zuko. then, she goes, says goodbye to zuko in that convesation bit, and the goes to azulon. now this is where my theory spliots. either she goes, gets baished by azulon(or killed) and azulon dies from other causes. or she kills azulon and escapes, knowing that she will be found out. or she dies from battle wounds from the fight with azulo(kinda like a mutual strike)

    anywyz thats my theory(s), comments addons are welcome!

    I agree, Eman. This is a great, not to mention plausible, idea.

    In all likely hood, she is, of course we haven't seen proof but it's all speculation. I just bumped it to reremind people, because in the coming months we'll find out who right or wrong I was...

    ur heart attack theory could be right, but I think after whatever happened, Ozai said he would do as Azulon asked, and kill Zuko, so Ursa told him she would make sure Iroh would not contest the lordship in exchange for Zuko's life; and both Azula and Ozai might have lied to Ursa, and Azulon told Ozai to Kill Azula(but he was gonna stop Ozai just before doing it, kind of like Abraham's sacrifice of Isaac)

    Forgive the shameless self-promotion, but I just now remembed this thread (again), but with the last few episodes and what we've learned, thought it'd be nice to get new feedback.

    I said all this back in '06, so it's interesting to see how on point I could be.

    Meh, you'd be hard pressed to find it anyway. The last post was way back in November. I only got to it because I saved the link to the first page.

    I don't think Azulon would take the challenge from Ursa, a woman, that's just a little unrealistic. Ursa probably plotted with Ozai to kill Azulon, that's all...

    Azulon dies of natural causes. Very boring but realistic.

    I'm sure an Agni Kai has to end in death, since Zuko chose not to blast Ozai in the face. "So, uh, let that be a lesson to you!"

    You are all fools. Ursa hired Chuck Norris to kill Azulan, which he did with ease. However, his price was the entire FN treasury. Becasue she bankrupted the nation Ursa was banished.
