I'm still not entirely sure what the experiment actually is. The notes just say "how it reacts to divine magic. Are we recruiting a Ranaldite priest to cast at it? Just dumping the coin in it? What is the actual objective here?

The objective is exactly what it says: find out how it reacts to divine magic. What you're asking about is methodology, which will be determined by the results of initial experiments.

I want an elf level fancy place, since we are in elf lands. 300 is nice, but I want it to be fancy.

Court Wizard and Loremaster of Karak Eight Peaks has been moved to former titles, but Mathilde retains the generic "Loremaster" title.

I also just realised that Johann's situation is also ripe for a misunderstanding. Kadoh thought Mathilde was a Loremaster because she could summon a sword and seemed to be a warrior, so seeing a Metal Mage who is obviously blind, I think Kadoh might fall under the impression that humans also have Vaul Priest lookalikes. As far as I understand it, the Elves have a bunch of smiths who blind themselves to bring themselves closer to Vaul as an initiation ritual, and I assume they're mostly Chamon focused.

Johann becomes even more of a polytheist?
 
So I have a question that has been kinda bugging me for while but it may actually be relevant for the future if we try to recruit the hedge wizards. Has any reason ever been given for why Teclis didn't fold the hedgewizards into the grey order the same way he did for other existing magical traditions and other orders? Either in cannon on quest cannon.

He did, he just didn't get all of them.

He did. Some of the strongest and most prominent Hedgefolk moved over to the Colleges, and that screwed over the ones who remained and refused to join. They started going into hiding and losing any prominence they have, and likely building resentment towards the colleges.

A fair number of these people live in insular communities. The Ostlander Hedgefolk refuse to let the other Hedgefolk help them out because they don't venerate their patron goddess Haletha as much as they do, so they're dying out after a lot of them were wiped out by a Necromancer in the Forest of Shadows.

I see, that would explain why the hedgefolk we want to recruit have secrets we don't, they were insular groups with their own secrets that the hedgefolk who became the grey order never had. The secrets of the main hedgefolk are now just grey order secrets. Thank you for the explanation.

I do wonder if the same happened with other mystical traditions too, small groups of druids/alchemists/others who refused to join up, I imagine they were a lot easier for the empire and it's new colleges to hunt down and either force to join or wipe out due to the other winds being less good at stealth than ulgu.

No this is from DL:

The Ostland Hedgefolk were almost entirely wiped out in a skirmish with a necromancer in the Forest of Shadows, and the few survivors refused (and, as far as you know, still refuse) any assistance in restoring their numbers as the 'foreign' Hedgefolk were not dedicated to their patron Goddess Halétha, which all but guarantees that the Hedgefolk will go extinct in Ostland within a generation or two.
