"Fresh acquaintance"

We've only known each other recently, but I'd heard good things about him before - the personal conversation only reinforced it: everything is to the point, without pretense. He's that rare GoH type: quietly gets things done, stays focused, doesn't chase the noise. We really have a lot in common - from Milady in Christ to a similar outlook on life and the market; you feel the common vector immediately. It's easy to move forward and make decisions with someone like that by your side. Glad we crossed paths - I'm sure we'll put together a joint case for the guild.
