[After the encounter with Amon he wasn't much up to doing the usual Polite Politician bit, but he's had to do things he didn't really feel like doing enough times before that it's just routine by now. He clears his throat, straightens his robe a bit, and starts speaking.]

I seem to have been away for...a number of weeks, at least, if not months. I haven't quite worked out how long it's been yet.

I've noticed a couple familiar faces so far [Mostly, his brother.] but there are quite a few people I've never met, as well. So I may as well introduce myself again, with apologies for any redundancy.

I am Councilman Tarrlok, representative of the Northern Water Tribe. Unfortunately that probably doesn't mean much to most of you, but I have experience with political leadership and was trying to help out in any way I could before my ill-timed disappearance.

So, I hope to get to know you all again, and don't hesitate to ask me for help if you need it.

Tarlokk. [Name-as-greeting, purposefully eschewing his title.] I'm afraid there hasn't been much movement on the formation of a council in your absence, but we do have a welcoming committee now - and a building designated for use as a community center, which might make things easier.

[He notices the lack of his formal title, but brushes it off for now.] Any progress is good, I suppose.

...Has there been any major conflict that you know of?

[usavatar]

[Ahahaha.] Depends on what you mean by conflict. The city was invaded by these... undead monsters, and the shell was damaged, which led to some verbal confrontations with the Emperor and Foreigner arrests.

Arrests? Over what? Just the verbal confrontations, or something else?

The turtle's shell was broken. Some of us trespassed on the repairs. [There's no way to tell what his feelings on the matter are.]
