Definitely this one. I'm headed to Thanksgiving Dinner and will think deeper and vote for more when I return, but definitely this one.

the spells to craft thing sound extremely useful to us, for several projects and in general. we could try to apply those methods to Seidr as well, and it might help with Norse armor project

Note for helping decide on votes:

According to Professor Google, maarahvas is an archaic and poetic term for the Estonian people, mostly used today by neopagans. Given the context I expect that it's a term for Estonian cultivators.




Anyway, onto my vote.

Fundamentally unless we're trying to become a hybrid Estonian cultivator, I think how their cultivators gain power may not be super relevant beyond the broadest strokes. It would not be super relevant to us (for example) to know every in and out of what gives Zeal if what we're actually looking for is how to copy Norse Armour - but a broader framework of how Zeal relates to other things in Carolingian Cultivation would be. Techniques are probably more valuable to us.

My thought here is that the techniques are obviously shiny, and the mythic origins of Estonian cultivation and metaphysical fundamentals hopefully give us a context in which to put this.

Mystery box (their Inner Cultivation maybe?), shiny crafting stuff that may work or give us ideas, and how to kill the gits if we get in another fight.
 
I'll just give you nine free question vouchers that you can use to find out any information you want about the Baltic's details.
What is the largest port city the Estonians know of in the East Baltic?

Do they have any strong demand for Norse goods that they'd be willing to pay the gold instead of iron price for?

Are there any particularly noteworthy sea monsters that plague the East Baltic?

Who are the strangest people they know of that live in the region?
 
Those question tokens are nice. Might be worth burning one or two in Uppsala for what we can buy and then where we can sell it for most profit overall, after dumping off our clay.

I think one question for what we can buy that will sell best in Denmark might be the way to go...we need to go back to Denmark anyway due to Johannes and we don't want to take forever. One question on that subject seems right, though.

Something like "Of the available commodities in Uppsala right now, which would sell for the most in Denmark, as compared to its price in Uppsala?"

It looks like he was pleasantly surprised by this bargain. Good to know!

Well I mean a secret shared is no longer a secret, meaning you now own less secrets.
Less of an issue for those who don't deal in secrets in the first place. As a seeress we both buy and sell them.
 
With this we will have learned more from people trying/have tried to kill us than our own friends.
