    When that enlightenment guy says what you see in the swamp... "we see people we lost, people we loved" all in past tense... Aang sees toph correct?

    so given the fact that time is an illusion and so is death... perhaps (and this is a long shot) that's a foreshadowing of toph dying in the series, aang saw toph in the swamp because he lost her, and since time is an illusion he's seeing a vision he would see much later.

    Also strikes up a theory of aang loving toph, but I'm not sure you have to see people you loved, just people you lost.

    I dun kno, whadda u think

    i kinda agree. but just wait until you read this:

    It was a flying boar, the symbol for the Bei Fong family.

    I don't think that it is realistic to expect everyone in the show to survive after the battle with the fire lord. I believe there will be losses on both sides, even if it is a show on Nick. I don't know if I think Toph will die, but I do believe Zuko will.

    It could just be PEOPLE YOU WILL SEE. Why does everything have to so complicated?

    Slightly off topic, but was it just me, or did anybody else think that, before Aang went on with the rest of his sentence there, that he was seeing someone from a past life?
    Hehe in the Aang/Toph community in livejournal they think Toph was a part of Aang's life in a previous incarnation. And that HE LOST HER therefore it would explain why he saw her in the swamp, where you see people you''ve loved and lost. So Aang may have loved her (as a sister/friend) in the past and lost her... I dunno.
    ?? his sister cant be a earthbender

    Is anyone listening?!?!? Toph is TWELVE!!!!!!! Are you insinuating that Toph was frozen too?(I feel like Sokka!)

    That is an interesting theory.?? I hope they don't kill Toph though because I think it would just be too sad, but whatever.?? As for the Aang loving her part.?? He may have just loved her as a friend.?? I mean Katara saw her mother but that doesn't mean Katara and her mother were romantically involved.?? That would just be gross.

    I said as a sister. Like Sokka loves Aang as a brother. And what fire_wolf68 said. Just because Sokka saw Yue doesn't mean you see ppl you've been romantically involved with. Love is love, it's in many different forms. Like with Katara and her mother.
