[X] Display the Signet. You are Myrmidia's daughter, and whatever else these Knights are, they are faithful and true. Claim your heritage, and with it the support of a network near unparalleled in scope and resources. A position of influence is safer by far than cooperation in ignorance, and will encourage answers to many more questions.

Push comes to shove we are going to need help and guards too with the powers we chose, and on the other hand we work best with resources to make stuff.
 
[X] Better Part of Valour. This is not the time to commit to a new course, not from a position of such ignorance. That you are favoured by Myrmidia is undeniable, but shelter is enough, you do not need the Knights' patronage beyond that. Not until you have the answers necessary to make an informed decision on your future.

I would love to play it open, I really would.

But I think we chose the wrong build for that. No supernatural leadership, charisma, skill in war or anything. Not even physical abilities to survive all the people who might want to kill the leader of a pro-civilisation organisation in this world.
And we don't have the backround to aquire these skills naturally.

So keeping our head down and trying to make use of our great crafting abilities, rather than trying to direct a war in the shadows of the Empire seems sensible.

The thing is all the bad people we should really worry about, like chaos and the Skaven have means of finding us that do not count on using their eyes to see or their ears to hear. Odds are Valeria would do a better job hiding from her protectors that her enemies.

Let us work together to make the world a better place.

True, but we can only craft up to the quality our building materials allow us. Dwarfs have access to two things that set them apart.
Gromril and Runes, both which are guarded zealously. So Dwarfs will be very touchy about us delving deeper into their art.

I think a Gold Wizard will be useful. They have the power to forge complex alloys, manufacture magical artifacts and perform advanced Chemistry. The Gold Order even discovered the Periodic table and are aware that elements are split into many more fundamental building blocks than previously imagined.

But that would mean possibly getting involved in Magic College politics, which can be troublesome on its own.

Gromril is super rare and in short short supply like only the High King of the Dwarfs can afford it. An entire Dwarf hold would be lucky to have a single bit of Gromril. And runes are also super rare Dwarfs don't have the numbers to stick them on their inventions.

Ironbreakers all wear full suits of enchanted Gromril armor.
"Dwarf Ironbreakers are amongst the most heavily armoured warriors fielded by the armies of the Dwarfs. Clad from head to toe with full suits of magnificent Gromril armour and Rune weapons"

Units of Hammerers normally carry Gromril hammers to battle.
"The symbol of the bond between a Lord and his Hammerers is the weapons they carry. Each is given a heavy, but perfectly balanced, great hammer, which is often made of gromril."

Dwarfs reinforced the gates of Karak Eight Peaks with Gromril.
"The powerful but portable warpfire thrower was capable of melting and punching through the Gromril-reinforced gates of the hold"

The Dwarfs coated a capital ship with Gromril Plates in Barak Varr.
"The self-loading, pump-action cannons of the Thunder bear magical runes of destruction upon their barrels, and its metre thick gromril-plated hull is so durable that even an iceberg cannot breach it."​

The Cathedral of Sigmar in Nuln has Double Doors bound in Gromril donated by the Dwarfs.
"Double doors, bound in gromril donated by the Dwarfs, allow access into the inner sanctums of the temple."

The Dwarfs built a submarine with Gromril tentacles, the invention of Tordrek Hackhart.
"Through the inky depths of the northern seas, rising through the turmoil to throttle its unwary prey with tentacles of barbed gromril."

In the story doom of Kavzar the temple of the city that will one day become Skavenblight used Gromril as a building material.
"A hundred years soon came and went At last the mighty temple stood Made of Gromril, jade and marble And all agreed that it was good And up above it stretched the tower Reaching an unearthly height."

Heck even the distant Norsca Dwarfs had divisions of Ironbreakers, and they could not be further away from the High Kings of Karaz a Karak.

That was a nice conversation. Uncertain, tentative, but sincere.

Let's lean into it.

Alright, I'll call the vote there. It looks like showing the signet wins by a landslide, so you're confirming your status as Myrmidia's daughter to this covert network of agents and operatives who worship her. Good stuff.

The next update will include a broader view of what the Knights of Magritta are and why they're divided, but I'd be interested in hearing if anyone has ideas for what they might like to pursue following that - the next plot arc will be going home to speak to Valeria's father, because she kind of can't leave that for too long, but if people can use their craftsmanship and artistry to get a foot in the metaphorical door (with assistance from the faithful) what kind of stuff would they be interested in seeing/doing with that access?

It's more of a long term goal, but I kind of want to besiege Skavenblight with the intent of restoring the lost city of Tylos.
