1: The load times are terrible

 

2: The hireling page shows that I have all 8 slots filled; however, I only count 7 hirelings, both in the list and in the stronghold.

 

Here's my save and output file: http://tinyurl.com/saveandoutput

Hello Bizkit,

 

This is a known issue and extremely difficult to reproduce. Though the hireling does not show up on the list, he is still there. Do you happen to have a save before your hireling goes missing from the menu? 

 

Thanks a bunch!

I have a similar issue.  I only have one hireling.  Security and prestige reflect that I only have one as well.
