Dragons and Transformation

In this chapter, they discuss the possibility of Ira's background being influenced by his encounter with the dragons. They speculate that Ira may have initially intended to kill the dragons but the experience changed his mind and opened his eyes to the greater world. They also mention that this transformation may have happened before the siege of Bostingsay and before the birth of Zuko. They discuss the timeline and suggest that Ira's encounter with the dragons could have been the start of his transformation into the Ira that is known and loved.
