Part 2 without glitches! but first, an Oby shout out:

With N5 on the Horizon, Raymon and Logan take one good look back at Ariadna and how they enjoyed it in N4. They go over the evolution of Ariadna from N3 too N4, how Ariadna is holding up currently, and their favorite profiles from the sectorials. They poor one out for the Sectorials that are leaving, and hopefully will make a valliant return in the future with some tweaks suggested by us.
