Perhaps. You should go to Middenheim and you can figure such things out.
I'd say that if we go to Middenheim that we should try to time it to when we're trying to learn Battle Magic level Ghur spells, so we can make use of our proximity to the Flame of Ulric for bonuses to our studies.
Preferably when we also have a job offer on the line given that it means paying lodgings again since we won't be staying at the Bull's Keep while there.
