< Michael, I have an obligation to return to Tuull to report to the Planetary Council, > T’Kleesual - Jubal - announced one morning while Michael and his ladies were breakfasting.
Michael responded.
Jubal explained,

Jubal explained,
Continuing, Jubal expounded,
To describe Michael as ‘floored’ could never do it justice. He responded,
quipped Jubal, who had acquired some human speech idiosyncrasies.
A select group of musicians was aboard Helva when she departed the Rukbat System for Tuullat. There were no Marines; no politicians; no scientists; and no engineers, for this was strictly a cultural exchange. On the other hand, Inkie was becoming quite the polymath, and politics was one on her developing talents.
The plan was to offer a series of live concerts, each featuring a sample of musical types and genres. The selected musicians could perform in more than one style, and a given performance might use artists from different groups. Inkie would perform in each concert, even if she were not featured. The final concert would feature Inkie playing acoustic guitar, singing her own compositions. The marathon of concerts would only be possible because of the stamina of the nanite-enhanced bodies of the performers.
Considerable time and effort were spent selecting the several programs, rehearsing, and ensuring that both Jubal and Helva were fully aware of the meanings of the lyrics and all the allusions and references therein. Throughout the concerts, members of the audience would be able to link with one or both for clarification.
Politicians around the universe share many common traits. Among them is the avoidance of commitment until obtaining significant assurance of not looking ignorant. In other words, the thirteen members of the Tuull Planetary Council avoided meeting the humans until they could determine which way the wind was going to blow.
The Council let it be known to all Tuull that artists of the recently discovered species would be displaying their art to be judged. For the Tuull, judgment could only be accomplished through live performances, so a number of concerts were scheduled. Interest was exceptionally high, and the right to attend was determined by a planet-wide lottery. Those not in attendance would be ‘forced’ to ‘suffer’ the indignity of attending electronically.
Nothing could have prepared the humans for the impact of first appearing on stage before thousands of human-sized raccoons! Right down to the dark band across the eyes and a ringed tail, the Tuull resembled raccoons. It was a damned good thing Davy Crockett coonskin hats were not in style.
The first concert, on the advice of Helva, consisted of a variety of rhythm-based music - from Maurice Ravel’s Bolero to selections of rap, hip hop, and Lindsey Sterling-styled performance violin. At the end, the silence was deafening!
Tuull audiences showed their appreciation with absolute silence, signaling their receptivity to yet another piece from the performer.
Concert followed concert, music genre changing to another. All met with prolonged silence. Thousands of raccoons staring - and not a peep, clap, or even a poot.
The next-to-last concert, performed by the entire musical cadre, consisted entirely of songs considered humorous by sections of humanity. There was a wide variety of types - from nonsense songs (Mairzy Doats), to suggestive (My Ding-A-Ling), to bawdy (My Grandfather’s Cock). Sections of the audience were, as usual, still and silent. Others, though silent, shivered - some with tears running. The Tuull liked funny, punny, and bawdy, and those who had learned English could scarcely contain themselves.
And then came the final concert. Inkie entered the stage with Armand and Dinky and introduced them to the audience as her adopted family. They sat on the stage and sang several children’s songs, with Inkie explaining that the music both taught and entertained younglings.
After the children skipped off stage, Inkie introduced T’Krandit. Though the audience already knew, she explained that Helva was a youngling, her friend, and was considered to be a member of her family. Then they sang together one of Inkie’s compositions written especially for their duet.
Finally, Inkie was alone on stage with her guitar. For nearly two hours, she sang her own compositions exclusively, pausing to sip from a water bottle or to briefly explain something about a song.
When Inkie’s solo performance was done, including her planned encores, the prolonged and complete silence was the equivalent of an American standing, foot-stomping, ovation punctuated by blasts from an air horn. That she had both composed and performed an entire program of such quality merited their highest acclaim. No individual stirred to leave.
