That doesn't seem all that thematically linked to quite a few of the colleges. You've got the healing tie in to Light of Jade iirc, and not much else.

Ah yes... limitations like the Vow of Poverty. Why Mathilde has had to live in utter destitution the poor dear... wait. Alright maybe not destitution but she still could not hold shares in a massive company. I mean what kind of idiot who does not understand the meaning of the word poverty would allow... oh no.
Look Eike you have to just trust us that the Vow of Poverty is a thing that exists and not just us wishing to keep you from all the cool shadow magic...
The Vow of Poverty is more about public perception than anything else... and by that measure, letting a new Grey Wizard inherit a large corporation like the EIC is a no-go. We can skate around the Vow since we've been a Magister in good standing for a while, Eike wouldn't get that privilege for a long time, if ever.
That's an interesting twist. To be honest, I was expecting it to be Mandred to be a wizard. I wonder how Mathilde is going to handle this situation. A lot of plans are disrupted now.
I hope this means we can take her on an apprentice in a few years time, when she's out grown the mono-wind environment like Regimand did with Mathilde. I'd like an apprentice thing, and this solves the shopping for a stranger problem.
Of course, that assumes she's a grey, which has its own issues.

I know, it is just hilarious that we might have to explain all that to a pouting eleven year old.

A literal 1 out of 100.
I honestly wish Boney had a video of his face at that moment, because I'd love to have seen his reaction.

That stuff is so damn spoilery, it should go behind something like double spoilers, with the first spoiler having a warning about why it is in spoilers. Something like this:
Seriously spoils a huge surprise and unduly influences the current vote with future knowledge we shouldn't have. Do not click the link or read any subsequent spoilers by anyone if you want to avoid that.
I know it's just a squat one floor tower, but isn't that exactly what we are currently creating? Next turn(s) we could expand the tower by 1+ floors until it's also a decent living environment. That said, we would sorely lack in all kinds of good teachers that a well rounded Gold Wizard needs. Max and Johann can do some of it, but even if they were willing to thoroughly homeschool a girl, I doubt they are talented enough to teach literally everything that needs to be taught, even together.
That's the law of the Empire. She is not currently in the Empire. I'm not saying that it's a good idea, but it isn't as binary as you present it. Beyond that there's also the priesthood and magic dampeners both.
Remember back when we had a choice to go in debt to Ranald in exchange for character creation goodies? And Ranald would then randomly screw us for shits and giggles? Seems like making it formal is completely unnecessary, because Ranald transcends such silly limitations as QM intent.
Maybe. But maybe compared to him she is still so unmagical as to be below his notice. Remember that most Humans are slightly magical. They all have a soul, they all can be "blessed" by Chaos and many more can become Necromancers than can become College Wizards. Maybe Cython wouldn't notice her slightly higher magic potential since it is still much less than that of your least talented Dragon whelpling.
If she were our apprentice she could theoretically inherit our cut instead, under the argument that she needs it for the same type of operations that we apparently need it.
That's just the glimpses we have seen after pressure from her grandma. We have no idea what she's like beneath that.
How old is Mandred? He could still turn out to be one in a couple of years. All it needs is another natural 100. And seeing how Ranald is real, well, it doesn't seem impossible.

Ah yes. I'm pondering to ignore that last option anyhow and introduce her to the halflings anyhow. Kazrik and Belegar should be enough, even if they're not traditionalist

Kragg needs more grumbling. Children are great for getting crotchety old men to Gumble. It'll either be Hilariously cute, or hilariously bad, but either way it'll be hilarious.
Why yes this is me offering tribute to Ranald. It pays to keep him entertained!

Oh she could inherit the EIC. As the Bursar said, it's a question about how you get the money rather than that you get it. I'm certain that more than a few of the wizards about are heirs apparent, and this isn't much different.
It's also the question about what she prefers. Eike is one of the very few™ potential wizards who have a wizard sponsor that can tell them about the different schools instead of tossing them into the nearest one they favor.

Everyone's going on about the IC implications and I'm just wincing in sympathy as poor Boney throws his plot notes out the window.

There's a reason Boney follows the DM ethos of never getting too far ahead of your players.
Just, instead of it mostly being us who jerks the plot off the rails, it's his own dice rollers.

I'd guess at this point, this no longer surprises him. Or he keeps more general plans that he outlines further as things progress just in case this exact BS happens.

"Kragg, I'd like you to meet Eike, granddaughter and apprentice to my good friend Wilhemina. Wilhemina wasn't able to find any worthy successors even in her own family for a long time but she kept looking and eventually she found Eike. To be honest she wasn't even sure about Eike for a while, but gave her a chance and she proved herself. Doesn't that sound nice Kragg?"
Eh, it's not like Eike was a particularly important character, plotwise. There are changes, but I doubt they are very significant.

As for the affinity thing: from what Boney had said it seems pretty rare to genuinely lean towards one wind in particular before you even start learning magic, and regardless you aren't locked into one path until you get an arcane mark.
That is, even Mathilde at the beginning of the story technically could have dropped everything and started over in another college.
She can go wherever she wants.
