Aang: (walking up) Old Man Ding?
Old Man Ding: (hits his thumb with the hammer) Eeh, yeow! Aw, dang blame it! What? Can't you see I'm busy. 'Got a full moon rising. And why does everyone call me that? I'm not that old. (tries to pick up a fallen) Aww...well, I'm young at heart. Not ready to get snapped up by some moon monster, yet, at least.
Sokka: (takes over the hammering) We wanted to ask you about that.
Aang: Did you get a good look at the spirit that took you?
Old Man Ding: Didn't see no spirit. Just felt something come over me, like I was possessed. Forced me to start walking toward the mountain. I tried to fight it, but I couldn't control my own limbs. (demonstrates a walk like he's possessed) It just about had me into a cave up there. And I looked up at the moon, for what I thought would be my last glimpse of light. But then, the sun started to rise. And I got control of myself again! I just high-tailed it away from that mountain as quick as I could!
Sokka: Why would a spirit want to take people to a mountain?
Toph: Oh, no!!! I did hear people screaming under the mountain. The missing villagers must still be there.
