Voted best in category in the Users' Choice awards.
The elves on this side of the sea figured out how to make a capstone, storage, and a foundation in just one year. There is little reason to assume the elves on the other side can't do the same.

They did that while being poked by Mathilde, to be fair. We're like if a dog had a PhD; this development was done in dog years.
Our capacity to potentially stop breathing from old age at any moment brings a delightful urgency to the proceedings.

Hatalath also made the Waystone Rune component:
The only thing they couldn't reproduce themselves was the Leyline transmission mechanism, because the Grey Lords weren't trusted with the passphrases.

Here is my attempt at that. Very bare bones updates unfortunatly, it is quite late for me. Still hope you guys enjoy, this is a lot more upbeat than the Boris one so I could to the Alt!SV accounts thing.

The *Next update rolls around* punchline hit super well for me. The setup portions got me engrossed enough in the elven perspective that I could totally feel the whiplash.

IIRC Grungni has this outlook in Age of Sigmar.
Thinking of the Waystone project like the space programme, I wonder if we can reuse any of the components.
I can see the individual enchantment for a single Wind as part of the College Fascis being useful as a component in large scale enchantments like Collegiate Battle Altars and potentially Towers to help them gather their Wind to recharge.
Similarly the Waystone rune is interesting in that it seems to increase the magical conductivity of materials it's inscribed on, and so would help in a similar way as the College Fascis enchantment.
If we do use the reverse engineered storage ant some point and get the difficulty down to something that human enchanters can make, that would seem to substantially reduce the cost of large capacity magic batteries. That might make towers and battle altars cheaper to make and possibly more powerful.
The other three storage options seem roughly comparable. Runic batteries don't seem to have significant differences to material or conventional enchanted ones that are already available.
I can't see much use for the Foundation and Transmission enchantments outside Waystones.

Wanted to point out:
Hatalath isn't her uncle, her uncle is the guy that almost threw down with the Sorceress at the ball.
Fixed, thanks.

Pretty good overall, though I feel like you could have afforded a bit more detail. I would have added a bit about how she helped reclaim K8P and Karak Vlag, and how that's already two nexuses on her name, and--
...Actually... Hey, do you guys think Laurelorn had any nexuses they no longer control? My gut reaction would be no, given the amount of time and effort they've expended on making their forest a veritable fortress against enemies, and their amount of magical might at their disposal, but now that the thought has occurred to me, I feel like that's a worrying possibility.

Runic indictor is one of the cheaper options compared to Stone Flower. But I don't want that in kislev for the reason I outlined.
A small, wicked, part of me can't help but observe that the deal we made with House Tindomiel has a weakness. We granted them first right of refusal to build the waystones, but if they can't provide enough production, we're allowed to have someone else build them. Someone who doesn't want to make them shrines to Hekarti. If we settle on a design that's heavily limited in the number that can be made for one reason or another, then House Tindomiel will have to either unbottleneck production with their own resources, or allow us to build a second, simpler waystone design that isn't decorated with such a politically fraught goddess.
that makes me like both winning options even more

Can't wait the find out what mask she wears in the Empire. I will laugh like hyena if it turns out something like Verena or even more weird Shallaya.
Probably not but thought of it is funny.
This is what they said at the very beginning of the project:
I think this was taken to mean that they had some Golden Age infrastructure they could no longer power, but it could be related to being able to do something with a Nexus.
Now we're close to being able to bring some new Waystones online, we should ask what they meant...
The Runic Inductor and the Stone Flower both have the same negligible cost. They have different requirements to make, which means the rate of production may be different, but they cost the same.

Yeah, I imagine it'd get answered with the Laurelorn network action.
Is Stirland still economically in the ditch? I thought that between Wilhelmina's econ work, new factory and infusion of K8P veteran cash, it should be on the upward trajectory for at least some time.
