Flashback: Two Years Ago
Korra had never been so nervous in her entire life. Just a few days ago, her father had shown up unannounced at her mother's home, and informed her that she had an older sister, from his second marriage. He'd also told her that the council had decided that Korra be removed from being first in line to inherit the throne, in favor for this older, legitimate daughter. Namor had explained that it he'd no other choice, as Nimue (as he told her name was) was older than her, and from a marriage, not a one night stand as she had been. Okay, so maybe he didn't say the last part, but Korra did know that her parents had never married each other, just remained on good terms with one another. While Korra understood that her father had to follow the law, there was a part of that felt a little confused and hurt. Though having a sister was something she'd always wanted, so it couldn't be all that bad, right? After all, her sister didn't demand that she inherit the throne first, right? It was the law, and they all had to follow it.

Emma had been furious with Namor. Korra couldn't remember the last time she'd seen her parents argue like that. Luckily, Korra's stepfather and brother had intervened before the argument could get too out of hand. Emma was mostly furious about "not doing anything and casting his daughter aside". Namor assured Korra that that was not his intention. Korra believed her father. She was generally a little confused of what to make of the situation.

Korra went straight to her room, as she wanted to collect her nerves before meeting her new big sister. She didn't want to come off as mean or unaccepting. She wanted to get to know her, and make her feel welcome.

There was a formal dinner that night, to properly introduce Princess Nimue to the Atlantean Court. Korra wanted to talk to her beforehand, though.

She took a deep breath, and opened her door. Korra made her way down to the hall to the room Nimue was staying in. She took another deep breath, and knocked.

"...Nimue?" She asked, when she opened the door. "Hi. I'm Korra. Your sister. May I please come in?"

	"Oh my goodness. So your mother is...Marina? The one who turned into a giant sea-monster, correct?" ...A few seconds after she said that, Korra realized how rude that sounded. "Not that I'm insulting your mother or anything! Dad just...told me about her. And how she died. I'm sorry if I sounded rude. I probably did." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's...interesting? Lots of responsibilities. It's not as fun as most people might think it is, but there are some perks. Like diplomatic immunity....not that I abuse that or anything." She smiled. "I didn't answer your first question. My mother is Emma Frost." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Nim nodded slightly. "Good to know," she said. "I'm from a pretty small town. This is all... pretty big." "Emma Frost?" A slightly quizzical expression crossed her face. "I... think I've heard that name before? Can't place where though..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I can imagine so," Korra said. "I bet if you weren't always raised a princess, it could be pretty overwhelming. But like I said, I'm here to help. We're sisters." "She used to be the White Queen of the Hellfire Club. She's also been known to work with the X-Men from time to time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"So we are," Nim agreed. Another small nod. "I think I remember that now." A more nervous grin. "So, um, do you have a boyfriend? Does... Namor approve?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Korra blushed. "No, I don't. I...haven't had much time for dating. I don't really get out much." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh? Is that your boyfriend?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A small passed over her lips. "Yeah. He's a really sweet guy." (Reply to this)(Parent)
