Requirements

Offer: Here's what I do, in plain words. Monsters aren't enemies by nature. They get hungry and they get scared, just like anyone. A hunter fights them... but I'd like to teach you to bind them instead, if one is willing. It's a thread of life magic between you and the creature, so it walks beside you because it wants to. Don't worry, it isn't a cage or anything like that.
A bound creature is your partner. You keep a squad of them, and when something blocks your road, you don't swing a weapon at it. You and your partners meet it together. But that means you can never raise a weapon again, (player). That's the price of the thread. Will you accept it?
In progress: Talk to me again when you're ready, and I'll bind the thread for you.
Completion: Hold still, and try not to think of anything in particular... This might tickle a little.
