Talk:Amon/@comment-71.105.131.57-20120601001137

Amon is obviously related in some way to the flashbacks Korra has had while encountering him. As others have pointed out, he is likely related in some way to the villian that Aang "dealt with" years earlier.

Tarrlok has probably cut some type of deal with Amon, as evidenced by his manipulation of Lin Beifong into taking personal responsibility for the safety of the crowds. She and her metalbending police would stand as a significant obstacle to Tarrlok establishing a new order should he stage a coup.

Tarrlok will be exposed as a traitor at some point, but will find redemption by stepping in between Korra and an Equalist attack, sacrificing his life for her.
