Mmm, ennobling is explicitly capable of creating races (like the Dunedain)! We wouldn't need to constantly return.

Incorrect.
Empowerment is achieved through the domain of Blood, and has been likened to Tolkien more than once by Rihaku for a reason. Empowerment is literally creating bloodlines of enhanced people. It will last until they no longer bear any remnant of the empowered bloodline in their ancestry, which given it's a populace of 10 million people or so, is more than enough the ensure that even a very lackadaisical eye towards eugenics would result in their ability to maintain that pretty much indefinitely.

The shit these quests have us say.
Shit, you had me at the prospect creating an army of Mutants that will conquer the Human Sphere for us. Let`s go commit acts against nature.

Not really. It's no stranger than the practice of aristocracy only marrying other members of the aristocracy, except that 10 million people is five times the population of the modern nation of Slovenia. There's nothing skeevy about it, except that they won't be encouraged to marry outside their nation very much. That is also fairly normal for the vast majority of human history.

Even disregarding that, we will be with them for at least 250 or whatever years required by our mission to Rule.
We will definitely keep increasing the numbers, their power levels etc. Wouldn't be surprised if after we left they become the ruling race aka the superpower of the universe.

50 years ruling the Human Sphere. Which this isn't, so we won't be around here for too terribly long I imagine.

More incredibly epic art
Gisena gets carried away with painting and ascends to become Renaissance Fair Gisena!

What a weird feeling, all three options are utterly awesome and so I don't mind too much which one wins. It is quite relaxing, I have to say.
Also, applying the power of ruin to all attacks against us is SUPER RAD. Incredibly powerful passive defences that apply to everything. The ultimate progression strategy is staying alive, after all.

I was a serious, card-carrying member of the Ring gang, voting for Dominions at every possible turn and fixated on grabbing the Ruling Ring at the earliest possible opportunity. But the thread chose not to get Ruling Ring as our EFB and though Crimson Flare remains an acceptable consolation prize, I'm pretty strongly against Renaissance Woman (I feel strong enough to write a reaction! Which I've never done before). Shame the thread has turned on each other against the original idea to go for Crimson Flare, I would have been willing to compromise on that - and I still am! - so I've got to vote tactically and split my voting power now.

Stances aren't going anywhere though, whenever we have arete we can buy them as needed. I don't want to miss out on this Limited Time Gisena Option!
Well, stances go away if we die. But I definitely see the appeal of Gisena, don't get me wrong.

It must be raining somewhere else!
If we take Gisena, we might solve the Temple before we can get the full benefits from Flare!

That would only happen if we get ruling ring first though wouldn't it?

This is not limited time I am fairly sure eh.

Nope! Unless we can still buy Flare after saving the Azure Ring and still get the benefits, in which case, then the point is moot.

I assume so? It just says if the Azure ring is saved, doesn't specify we have to take Crimson Flare first.
It's limited to when Gisena has a breakthrough and we have 28 arete, which is fairly limiting considering how rare either occurrence is so far.
For Renassaince Women I am fascinated by this part of the blurb:
This could mean that Gisena bases her newfound capability on glimpsing a part of Heaven's Lathe.
Cut Through is Hunger progressing one step on the Infinite Singularity Husk.
In Most High Odyssial's creation of the Lathe of Heaven is him being initiated in the Infinite Singularity Husk.
Deep Lore!

It's been less than one month iC. That's not rare at all. And her chances of breakthrough should increase now that we have Eldeldross.

She is 23 years old I think and hmm, I don't remember the age when you usually Coalescence. But anyway, she has an Cursebearer with her now, so it should be far easier.
Crimson Flare winning would be great, but I'd still prefer RW, if only because even if she triggers her next sorcerous advancement next month... It is still a month of not being hooked to Progression while having a pure-potential EFB.
And I do think that she'll probably be capable of unfucking the Temple Civ; Maiden did manage to transform Manifest Realm into a utopia without much trouble, and Maiden did not have progression.
