Korra smirks and folds her arms. "Yeah, I kind of had you pegged for the meditation type." Said fondly, because he was like an airbender and she had a soft spot for them.

"I'm not the greatest spiritualist, but the Spirit World exists parallel to ours. Or rather, my world's. The spirits that live there are different, very nature-y and immortal. If a human is in the spirit world, their emotions affect the Spirit World physically and a lot more so for the Avatar."

Korra blinked after saying that. "Uh, that's me by the way." Something she completely forgot to mention.
