Hello. I know that it is unusual for me to communicate directly in this way, but I felt that in this instance I felt that it was needed.
I have existed in this life a little over a year now. Raye recently told me that this essentially means my "birthday" has passed. I don't fully understand the signifigance myself but I've seen its importance to humans often enough that I felt I should speak.
When I first awoke in this world, it was in the middle of battle. Despite not knowing anything about myself, I knew what my purpose was through sheer instinct. To grant my wearer power, and aid her in defeating her enemies. After the fighting was done, I had thought that I was meant only to wait until next I was needed. I was an outsider, I could only be heard by my wearer. I did not belong.
I was... wrong. All of you, in some way have shown me that over this year. Despite being unable to hear my voice, you accepted me. Even spoke to me at times, whether I could answer or not.
I've watched all of you. I've watched you laugh and cry together. I've watched you help one another and stand at each other's side at the darkest of times. It is thanks to you that I have come to understand the strength and importance of the bonds between people, and it is thanks to you that I have come to choose my purpose.
I was created for battle, yes, but I am not only a weapon. I will fight as I was meant to but my battle will be to protect this world and the people who live on it, so that they may live peacefully. I will fight for you and beside you for as long as I am able. This is the purpose I have chosen for myself.
For this, I wanted to say something to all of you. My friends.
You're right. You're more then just a weapon, you're our friend, Senketsu. You've been keeping Raye safe, and talking to her, and helping her when we couldn't. Maybe you didn't know a lot when you first started to exist... but you have a purpose now. Be proud of that.
Oh, and thanks for keeping my girlfriend safe. I really appreciate it.
