Eventually, when [[Sja-anat]] asks Renarin for any potential candidates for bonds, Renarin immediately suggests Rlain.{{book ref|sa4|114}} With that vote of confidence, the enlightened [[mistspren]] [[Tumi]], sent to evaluate [[Mraize]] for a bond, also spends several weeks observing Rlain's heroic qualities during the occupation of Urithiru, though he must be careful to avoid coming to Odium's attention. In the chaos of the uprising, in recognition of Rlain enjoining the humans and singers in shared purpose, Tumi names Rlain Bridger of Minds, rejects Mraize, and bonds him, making him the second-ever Enlightened Truthwatcher.{{book ref|sa4|114}} Rlain wishes to seek out the surviving listeners with Venli, Leshwi, and their people, but he establishes that he needs to stay, at least until Renarin returns.
 
Rlain and Renarin share the capacity for [[Shard#Future_Sight|future sight]] through their sprens' connections with [[Sja-Anat]], and Rlain's abilities are likely to hew close to Renarin's, though there may be some variance due to his species and connection to the Rhythms.
 
[[Renarin]] develops romantic feelings towards Rlain,{{wob ref|14549}} and it is possible Rlain returns these feelings. Sanderson explains that the characters have not yet reached the same conclusions that their emotions have.{{wob ref|14549}} He wrote scenes further developing Renarin's and Rlain's chemistry in ''Rhythm of War,'' but removed them for pacing reasons.{{wob ref|14647}}
