Well the does not bode well for Stirland. The new EC is young, foolish and has effectively no council. Schultz and Gustav are the only ones that
may have stayed but I doubt it given their dissatisfaction. Oh and the army is in tatters, with the Greatsword wiped out to a man.
or even answering the call of Belegar Ironhammer and venturing beyond the borders of the Empire.
Nope! One Mount Vietnam was quite enough thank you very much.
Some quests have average rolls. Some have blatantly dramatic rolls. This quest? This quest seems to gets crappy rolls for all the critical do or die moments.
To clarify things and hopefully cool heads a little: Roswita doesn't hate you and didn't insult you. She recognizes your contributions and even feels sorry for your condition, but as far as she's concerned people who have a non-zero chance of exploding into demons belong a looooong way away from her. Which I think is not too difficult to understand. So thank you for your service to Stirland, good luck in your future endeavours, and here's a letter of reference to help you finding work somewhere where she's not in the demon-explosion radius.
She told
her spymaster to get lost without even talking to them. It would have taken her minutes to ask for a report and for us to help familiarise her pet Witch Hunter with our network. She didn't. She thought being in the presence of a wizard for even a few short moments was more dangerous than screwing over both her chosen spymaster and insulting the previous spymaster.
Girl is not fit to rule a province.

Reasoning: I do not want to see all that we have built go to waste. I also don't want that idiot to mess it up. We have a very solid base established and shouldn't throw it away just because of a bigot. We can keep our institutions ticking over while we study magic. Then go adventuring after we clear some of the backlog.
The Runefang, unlike all the other stuff, isn't personal property. It belongs to Stirland, or rather to the Empire. Keeping everything else though. If the fool isn't even going to hear what we have to say then she pays the consequences of that decision.
