Seven Havens is “set in a world shattered by a devastating cataclysm,” reads the official synopsis. “A young Earthbender discovers she’s the new Avatar after Korra — but in this dangerous era, that title marks her as humanity’s destroyer, not its savior. Hunted by both human and spirit enemies, she and her long-lost twin must uncover their mysterious origins and save the Seven Havens before civilization’s last strongholds collapse.”

Created by Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra‘s Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, Seven Havens will be comprised of Book 1 and Book 2, each consisting of 13 half-hour episodes.
