After having done some research on hell hounds for a possible future expedition, Ferhem thought long and hard about how to optimise his chances of survival were he to indeed encounter the beasts. After going through the various possibilities in his mind, he decided that it might be worth investing in a trained beast to distract the creatures. In fact, these trained animals might be useful for more than facing hell hounds. The more he thought about it the more he liked the idea. Also, he thinks that a way of hiding one's scent might be worth looking into. He does some research in the White Horses library regarding these two subjects and then heads to the Unicorns Company. There, after introducing himself and exchanging a few words about the weather, he gets to the point: "The main reason for my coming here is because I've heard you are the best hunters in Maladon. That's why I thought you might know a thing or two about survival in the wild. If I wanted to learn about, say, hiding one's scent from animals, who would be the person to ask? I'm also interested in purchasing war trained animals. Would your company be the one to ask regarding this or would you know of someone who sells these ?". Ferhem adjusts his mask and waits for an answer.
