A family pet is a special thing. It's not just an animal. It's a friend and a companion that you start with when you're young. There'll be times you don't even remember, you're so young, when that dog was still by your side. It's a lifelong friend capable only of love and unending compassion.
The power of that kind of friendship is unrivaled by any emotional force I know. I've seen people take actions they were certain would be a deathwish to save them.
But a friendship like that comes at a cost.
The death of a family pet is devastating in a way that defines the word. Emotionally shattering everything about a person in one moment. It's a kind of devastation I wouldnt wish on my worst enemy.
Maybe nobody from Bungie will read this. But if anyone does, I hope they see this.
OP has felt both a power and devastation unmatched by most. And maybe he's not the only person. But something tells me he is deserving of this. If Gjallarhorn remains a Year 1 exclusive, give OP a Year 2 version. It's not going to break the game. He's not going to fly through PVE missions smooth sailing. But he'll have a memoir of his family friend.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I really hope bungie sees this, whether they give him the "Gali" or not, just to appreciate the generosity of it's community and share it.
