[disfavored]

As you may know, Mr. Wayne recently brought the idea of a foreigner-lead council up again. This was something I was working on before my untimely disappearance, and I agree that it is a good time to try again. I am in full support of this idea, and the current proposal was one representative from each sector if we get enough volunteers.

I understand some of you have concerns with the idea of a council, so if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. Now more than ever I think it's important that we are adequately represented.

...As well, it has come to my attention that certain events have recently transpired involving my brother. Noatak - or Amon, if you know him by that name.

As some of you were not present for my last warning on the subject: I strongly advise anyone to refrain from getting involved in his affairs. He is extremely dangerous, no matter how he acts. As I said, I am his brother, and I am certain I know him better than anyone else here. He is a bloodbender and he will not hesitate to destroy you if you get in his way, no matter who you are.

I can't stop anyone from getting involved with him, but please use caution.

[Private to Noatak]

I'm sorry, but I believe this is for your own good.

[ Amon switches to private once it becomes clear this conversation has veered into more than just his brother's political agenda. What he does find surprising is how oddly mollified he is by what her assertions they will not be condemned, here. ]

I find your say in all of this...reassuringly pragmatic. As for my brother I don't want to see blood on the ground- especially his, and for the time being I will support the idea that the acumen of the foreign populace can be trusted to see corruption if it occurs within their political circus act.

[ As for the issue of bending... ]

The destructive power of bending that allowed for others to lord themselves over their fellow man and muscle their way into position only for it to be lauded as 'the way things are.' That is my problem. That it should be the cornerstone of everything that defines us when there are no ordinances no moral structure in its design to regulate such dangerous skill. That is my problem.

Those who would threaten and abuse reacted to nothing but what they so easily gave: fear. It would be unwise of me to assume it is the same in every world, or that I have some right to hurl myself into the throng of an alien society with the intention of changing it. My grievances are with my world and mine alone.

Regardless, you will not see me fall back on...old habits.
