That's a thing in the Empire? Or is it more of a "Emerald College secret" that Mathilde already knows about? Or are we just talking random one-night-stand father (with careful selection) which I could imagine being an option for many a practically minded secular Magister, but feels weird for cutely prude and overthinking Mathilde.

It one-night-stand style

I really think we should look into the Wissenland situation, not even to take the job but maybe offer a few months of help like we did with Roswita, we can't lose a major empire city to Skaven.

Mathilde isn't the only competent person in the world. I assure you other Imperial authorities and experts can ensure that one of the biggest imperial cities wouldn't be lost, though results and their price would be left to QM's discretion and probably partially to dice, not to player agency, and we could (or very probably could not) contribute in more unique and exotic ways as highly competent something-of-a-Skaven expert, but that's about it.
 
The Rest of the Thread: But how can Mathilde and Panoramia have babies?

Me: I wonder if Panoramia is going to give Mathilde the "it's not you, it's me" speech if faced with the prospect of a long distance relationship.

Well, its not the decisive vote yet, nor is it late in the voting process yet, so no need to be strategic yet.

Mathilde is not something of a Skaven expert, we are likely The Skaven expert for the empire, we cracked their language we have insight from both an insider, a long term war against them and commanding forces against them, someone else might be able to help, but again, when it comes to a major empire city i think sending the best person available is the way to go.

Establishing that Mathilde is the kind of workaholic that torpedoes relationships to progress her career: bad.
Establishing that Divided Loyalties isn't the kind of quest where your first relationship is your 100% perfect soulmate for life: good.

Not sure how I'd feel about that...

Fascinating option.

Honestly I want to look into this just because I want to know more about this.

[X] Spymaster of Wissenland

Over the edge because of possible finding out about Nuln.

I think 'Waystone' is so strong because its something we have wanted to do for a long time.

But I'm not confident that is going to be super dynamic as the main job like most of the other jobs.

e.g

Vampires Are Invading!

Skaven has been spotted in the pantry!

the lizardman are probing are defences.

Border princes... just the border princes politics, they shift like the sand.

etc, etc,

I think I'm going back to my old argument: the quest is best when there is an opponent (or six) rolling their own actions in the background.

I'm not Seeing how the waystone project will have any of that, A bit of keeping the runesmiths and elf mages from skinning each other, but not an enemy trying to beat you to the punch or sabotage you...

maybe Beastmen? fucking up waystones is as much their things as setting up hordstones.

Anyone else wondering why the light college patriarch is so insistent on keeping Egrimm firmly under hand? From the perspective Egrimm gave it sounds like poor management, but I wonder if there is more to it. It's pretty well outside of our purview, but it's pretty spooky stuff. Egrimm has definitely not given any reason to disbelieve him.

Not even going to try to pretend I can keep up with the 500 posts since I went to sleep so...

These seem most interesting and this isn't a commitment, yet.
