Forging A Friendship

Description

When you first arrived I was uncertain of your potential. The Primus demands such perfection in his work... and you are far from perfect.

I see now that you bring new knowledge and ideas to our house. Your actions make us stronger. The Primus would be proud of you and wish for us all to learn from you.

I am ready now to know your ways.

Let me soulbind with you now, so we can grow stronger together.
