Minfilia continues to know nothing but suffering

For people who haven't read it (which technically includes me, mine's coming with a nebulous delivery date, but I have seen the popular spoilers): The Minfilia before Ryne was beaten to death by a young Vauthry when they were both somewhere in their early teens. Which... god damn.

I actually kinda like learning it, though, because it fits exaclty how I've always read Eulmore, as basically a medieval/renaissance fantasy take on a post-apocalyptic 'have and have nots' city (think Immortan Joe's kingdom from Fury Road). Vauthry doing something like this tracks completely, since I can see that scene perfectly in both its possible inspirations.

As for the stuff I've seen that's not related: So far my favorite is that Giott's hammer is filled with liquor for emergency consumption. This makes it as unwieldy as you imagine, which is why she occasionally drops it and goes hand-to-hand.

Also, while I broadly agree with the 'we don't need spoilers' call here, I can think of one exception, because it seems like we might have info on one character we've never seen:

The head of the Gleaners' Guild is a hrothgar we've never met. So he might come up at some point next month.
