[Don't worry, Tony. Sokka filed it under in the Magic Crap file too. It just so happens to be subfiled underneath Magic Crap that Sokka Is Okay With Because He Used to Date It. Kind of. It was totally dating her despite that she was engaged to someone else. Right? Right? Bueller?
Thankfully, Gene's question was easier.]
Well, it's because the moon controls the tides, right? [Finally something that Tony might like!] Waterbenders get their ability to bend from the moon. And the ocean. Or maybe it's the Moon Spirit and the Ocean Spirit? [Whatever.] Anyway, no moon, no waterbending. The Fire Nation could just sweep through and take over the entire Water Tribe, leaving only the Earth Kingdom to stop them.
If it had worked, of course. [The important caveat.]
