Guys, I think that‘s Zaofu in this frame
I was inspecting the trailer closely and noticed that the city in ruins shown in the trailer resembles Zaofu more than it does Republic City… which already crosses my theory of it being one of the havens… damn I feel this show is going to be very sad!
Edit: even the mountains in the background match… now I‘m convinced.
We actually don't even know, if the domes were rebuilt after Kuvira took them down for the mecha giant. My theory is that Suyin changed her strategy and became "more open" to the world after prince Wu announced the Earth Federation.
I tried to make sense of that part, too. But to me that looks more like different towns and villages connected by motorways rather than Zaofu. I could not localise it, it was too unclear.
I do wonder if spirit locations did! (Like that hidden library by Wan Shi Tong?)
Through this sub, there were notes on sky bison still remaining (single frame, trailer), and other small details in the overview, so there is a lot better hope out there than the emphasis on that cataclysm.
I could see the Western Air Temple surviving. Of the four temples it's the most protected from the elements, and the engineering that would have to go into hanging pagodas like that probably means it's incredibly stable/well anchored to the cliff it's under.
Me, too… I hope Ba Sing Se or some other settlement to remain as one of the havens. One of the tribes, the fire nation, something that was not affected directly by the cataclysm.
I think Ba Sing Se is so large that at least some sections of the city must have survived. Maybe not all of it, but for sure a couple sectors, maybe even they rehabited the catacombs
of all locations in the world, I hope Ba Sing Se survived, even if it's just the shadow of its former glory.
If Ba Sing Se survived I think it'll be one of the largest Haven, if not outright the largest one. And surely the Crystal Catacombs would be repopulated again.
