A few quick things:

1. Feel free to have me edit that both the hounds would go. I figured that the male hound would attach himself to Yerbol just due to bro camaraderie

2. Post was a bit on the shorter side, so I can get us to Chuffon Prime in next post. 

3. I really wanted Yerbol to get all that stuff off his chest before confronting Illesia and thought that it might be best for Ari to hear some/most of it. If you want me to edit out that she appeared, feel free to tell me and I'll revise :)
