Katara is always in the area to welcome new arrivals, see if there's anyone she knows and seeing if anyone there needs help from healing magic or any other kind of help really.

And there have been surprisingly many arrivals from their world, really, these surprises just keep coming and coming and today's surprise may be the wildest one. Not just because she is staring at a real polar bear dog but because she also has never ever seen a tame polar bear dog and wow, is she in for even more surprises soon.

Whose familiar is that? Is she even a tame one? Sorry, Naga, this waterbending master just keeps staring at you eyes wide as plates like this is the biggest surprise ever.

"You're a... polar bear dog..." She is a polar bear dog, right???! (Yes, Katara, yes she is.)

Okay, look, at least Korra can possibly see Katara before she'll notice her too??
