Okay, got to ask, two crits, one being a NAT 100 and all we got was gold? No trait nor an income?

We were originally going to get at most 600 gold
Getting near 20000 seems like quite the reward.

Nice
Also nice
Very nice!
Damn! Well we're pretty set on gold for a bit, and the internal trade amongst our people is a nice bonus
Very nice, I think we have every Lore aside from Life and Death covered now (Shadow and Fire double covered)
Awesome! Hopefully that reduces the DC for revealing ourselves to them a good bit
Also nice. Our people are in a much better situation now: They're decently trained to protect themselves, have well built villages to live in, much more food to eat, and have trade going to give them more money to spend
Awesome! That'll make upgrading our forces and learning magic way easier!
Ooh, very nice
That DC reduction is quite welcome, and the two traits are even better!
A good start, now to further encourage that rebellion
Excellent, now to use that blackmail to encourage infighting
Very nice, those bonuses will be quite handy when we go to war.
Holy shit! We just doubled our Personal Combat if we fight with a sword
Now to get some sweet gear to compliment our crazy awesome skills
Nice, nice. Eye lasers and what sounds like a debuff spell are a good addition to our magical arsenal.
I'm thinking that we start training Shadow along with Light next turn, since we've got 3 Vampire spells, 2 Light, and 0 Shadow.
And maybe train one of our less awesome stats.
And increased internal trade ontop of that is very nice.

No. I think it's better to concentrate on Light & Vampire spells balancing both to max. This way it'd be easier to source for gear.

Oh, how so? Easier to acquire gear with either....Wind attribute or whatever in Mousilion?

I mean be concentrating on 1 Wind it might be easier to lower the DCs searching for materials/gear with higher mastery.
Mousilion being Mousilion would be stupidly easy to get Vampire/Undead gear.

Ahh, I got you. And it's the two Winds that our human mages don't have as well.

Curse of Years is way more than a debuff spell; unless it's dispelled or the caster fails to roll a single success out of 10 dice + extra dice for every success, it will keep aging the target until they turn to dust.
Curse of Years has a casting value of 6. If successfully cast, pick 1 enemy unit within 18" of the caster that is visible to them and roll 10 dice. For each 6, that unit suffers 1 mortal wound and you can roll an extra dice. For each 5+ on these extra dice, the target suffers 1 mortal wound and you can roll another dice. Now, for each 4+, the target suffers 1 mortal wound and you can roll another dice. Keep rolling dice in this way, inflicting mortal wounds and reducing the roll needed to cause them by 1 each time, until either no wounds are inflicted or the target unit is destroyed. A roll of 1 always fails to inflict a mortal wound.
