So, Minnas promotion is a good start on kicking LeMays feet out from under him, and I really quite liked the scene with Perrine at the end of the chapter. But I think Hannalore might be one of my favourite parts of the story, especially now she's found a group she's completely fine with dropping the 'severe officer' act. "Good afternoon, ladies. ... And you," had me giggling far more than I should have for a single line.
As a side note, how much is Gryph enjoying being in a universe where he's not an immortal famous hero, recognized by all?
