In 2194 a ship carrying John Sully arrives in the lush “new world” of Pandora. The settlers are mining for unobtanium; under supervision of Colonel Quaritch. Jake Sully begins exploring the new territory, and encounters Neytiri; initially she is distrustful of him, but a message from the Tree of Souls helps her overcome her trepidation. The two begin spending time together, Neytiri helps Jake understand that all life is valuable, and how all nature is a connected circle of life. Furthermore she teaches him how to hunt, tame dragons, and of her culture. We find that her father is Chief Eytucan, and that she is set to be married to Tsu’Tey, a great warrior, but a serious man, whom Neytiri does not desire. Over time Jake and Neytiri find they have a love for each other. Back at the settlement, the men, who believe the natives are savages, plan to attack the natives for their unobtanium. Tsu’Tey tries to kill Jake out of jealousy, but he is later killed by the settlers. As the settlers prepare to attack, Jake is blamed by the Na’vi and is sentenced to death. Just before they kill him, the settlers arrive. Chief Eytucan is killed and Jake sustains injuries from Colonel Quaritch, who is then shot with arrows. Neytiri risks her life to save Jake. Jake and Neytiri finally have each other, and the two cultures resolve their differences.
