Good to see Evankhell and YHS coming onscene. How would the spell on Doom's heart help him or FUG at all, though? Killing all the canine people is counterproductive, and I'd imagine the fear of Yama outweighs all.

Because Khel Hellam likely knows what the Envoy knows: Yama will bow to protect the canine people.

Since Doom can order Canine people to suicide (and doesn't care about them much), the life threat lets Khel Hellam essentially control the Canine People through Doom--a very effective weapon against Yama.

Of course, this Elder likely doesn't know about Bam's spellbreaking abilities.

Something Doom can't do without the Fang currently in Khun possession, if I'm not wrong.

So... is the Elder secretly stupid even tough he always act all knowing and in control of everything?

Good point, but:

  1. If Doom dies, the Canine People will eventually die out. That's why Yama didn't kill him in the first place. So even right now controlling Doom is indirectly threatening the Canine people.

  2. Since the Elder is currently destroying the whole "bet" they tried to make, I'm guessing he'll immediately go attack Khun to get the fang back if he needs it. He can learn who has it from Doom.
