Yes, well, most of our kind try to be as welcoming as possible, and trying to gauge the starting points of the new arrivals. I have a reputation for not affording that luxury to newcomers. Like it or not, we're on the brink of all-out war, in which were are certainly outnumbered and highly likely outgunned. There isn't time to waste if we can help it. Fortunately, you seem more capable than most.
Before I can suggest anything in terms of an assignment, I'd like to have a sense of what I'm working with, to see what gaps still need to be covered or with whom you might do well working in tandem. You're obviously a man of means, so I doubt monetary compensation is of much interest to you. Mostly, it's a matter of we protect each other. Someone's in need of help, we step in. We shield our weakest until they grow strong, and work to keep our strongest at their fittest. There is also the exchange of knowledge and tactics. We are not unreasonable, and certain members have unique pools of talent and resources. I'm sure suitable arrangements could be made.
