And he found this out how? By Ernalda disappearing, perhaps? Upon her disapperance, he asks "Where is the Justice due to me in this hour" and gets told "with the Grand Order". Thus the LBQ.

No. I'm disputing that your statement that Orlanth made peace with fingers crossed. I've already disproven Orlanth went to rescuse Ernalda and not Yelm. If you want to impose skewed interpretations of what the myths actually say then this forum is not the place for it.
