Oriel is made to be a counterpart to Gwen. Aiden and Gwen has synergy.
Shiho made her for that. Aiden has a partner who can feed him ice, Oriel is made for Sable.

IC...... Cynthia....

If Sable does a Natsu, eyes on rivalries.... he would want to crush Aiden, challenge Gwen, Sairis, Nathan.

He does at the moment. I'm leading up to him confronting his weakness towards Aiden. He knows Ice Boy has a advantage over him now but he's not too willing to admit it. As for Chrome, Sairis, and Nathan... well they're still his goals. Marduk is ever further up.

Aiden has no such goals at the moment. The death of Hydrologia and his inability to do anything to stop it made Aiden to realized he need to get stronger, not for himself, but to protect his new family with all he has. He'll still have a bit if rivalry with Sable, but it won't be as active or intense as before.

This little event may have just created two stronger Dragon Slayers. Both mentally and physically.

Lol. Your pun was taken by me anyway. Hilarous. Those hurdles seems reasonable. 

What did you guys think of Velid's small entrance? He's out there now, the first Demon Slayer to step onto the scene.
