Actually, I feel the relationship between Roku and water is quite interesting. It seems to fit the theme of "Love and Loss" on Day 4 really well, so I drew this kinda random 4 - panel comic.

As for the "loss" part, there's no doubt it's about his twin brother Yasu drowning at sea. It made Roku feel guilty until later on (after all, when this guy thinks of water, his first thought is death...).

The "love" part is also related to water. Makittuq taught Roku that submerging in water was the quickest way to enter the Spirit World. Through this method, Roku connected with Kuruk and realized that as the Avatar, he didn't have to be alone. He got closer to the people around him and understood it's okay to rely on friends sometimes. That's why it called "The Awakening Of Roku".

Water brings death to Roku, but it's also a symbol of life. No wonder he said learning water - bending was the hardest for him.
