Last we saw of the stag, Harvesmuir, he was hurt but attended to by the Sisters of the Thorn. Then he was apparently taken off the field. He's probably alright.
Bloodglade was either dead or dying last we saw her. It would be a blow to Laurelorn if she is actually dead.

To be entirely honest, i don't think this will make it to rumor mill at all. Wood elves are not ones for sharing, and it happened entirely outside of view. But reading the epilogue will be very cool, yes.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Then I realized there is one outlier: Mena and her Ulricans. They only took part in what happened in Laurelorn, but they still did. Hundreds of boisterous warriors that boast of their deeds and prowess.

Thats actually fair, but to be honest, they were only there for the less impressive bits, unlike the one we blasted off of Orion.

Wow. First of all, thank you for the incredible story you've woven from what the dice made of a simple diplomatic meeting. Second, thanks for splitting it apart - due to stressful and busy RL it took me a week each for Lovely Laurelorn chapters 8 and 9 alone. I'm looking forward to (slowly) reading the rest and eventually catching up with the quest.
I've noted grammar and spelling fixes for chapters 8 and 9 below:
(As it's currently written, "here" applies to the whole sentence)

As you already use "In truth" a few sentences before, and this one has a repetition of 'truth', I'd suggest to use "Indeed".

Well, yes, but i was mostly talking about Freddy. Tashas accomplishments are her own.

Since the conversation seems to be leaning toward post-arc stuff, I want to remind everyone I want to send Eldyra and Sandrina copies of Evangeline Hertwig's account of Karak Ungor.
Sandrina is a story-teller and has expressed remorse and a sense of loss about the collapse of Elf-Dwarf relations, going so far as to try some Bugman's Best to try and get a sense of what it was like then. So, she would probably enjoy having a new epic tale to tell and probably wouldn't dismiss it out of hand just because it's a primarily Dwarf tale.
Eldyra is a young lady squire who indubitably loves epic tales of heroics and did not shy aware fromdrinking shotgunning Dwarven brews (though admittedly that second part probably has more to do with respect for Freddy than tolerance for Dwarfs). She may not be as interested in the historical account in its entirety, but she would probably enjoy perusing it for epic fights and stuff. She might also learn the potential consequences of heroics (like when Freddy jumped down a squig's throat). (As @Doomed Wombat pointed out, furthering this theoretical lesson would be redundant after her practical experience.)
Not to mention, it would probably help either of them should they ever need to diplomatize with some Dwarfs.

I think she learned the potential consequences of heroics quite nicely when she tried to 1v2 a pair of divine avatars and almost died hard.
That being said I do find the idea of a now independent and solo adventuring Eldyra trying to negotiate with some dawi, getting frustrated and just ****ing smashing some Bugman's to their surprise.
Then explaining she has a standing order with the brewery after picking up the taste from an old friend.

I'd say I want inner empire stuff, but I can already see Gunthar barging in. And I wouldn't put it past the dice to screw us over if we ever decide to give him the brawl he wants.
After everything, it would ruin my SOD something fierce to lose to that guy.

mmm question in general, but has it ever been answered if the payment Aurellion's house makes for the stair of eternity (4000 gold a turn) is a substantial hit to their coffers?
Cause to us umies it's a lotta gold.
The three possibilities I see is that either they're so rich they don't care, the prestige they get from paying it more than makes up for the loss or three subsidies from the phoenix court on account of wanting and needing the fulcrum.

Aurelion straight up said it catapulted her family in status and it singlehandedly rose the Opinion of Patriarch of her family to 7/10. So i would say its pretty damn important.
Our Net income per year is roughly 17k gold, and Ostland is one of the poorer provinces of the Empire, despite growing. And i rather doubt even the richest Empire province can rival the poorest Ulthuani one, except perhaps the shattered remains of Nagarythe. So i doubt its anything more than noticeable but not all that bothersome expediture. So i guess first two apply, no idea bout the third.

I do wonder if we will get any elf/wood elf titles given the mess I would not be opposed to a 'the beast' title.
If we can gain even 1/100th of the titles of the lowest of tomb kings I can go out a happy man.

Personally, I don't really care about potential rewards, I just want to hear about Laurelorn more often. I loved their appearances in the quest, and if we could just get like Laurelorn rumor mills, let alone Asrai rumor mills, I'd count this whole trip worth it on our end.
Most of these I corrected, others I think fit okay enough, might just be a difference of lexicon/personal dialect stuff though. Appreciate it!

Ostland was one of the poorer provinces in the Empire. This is quite evidently no longer the case.
I said this a while ago, but here's textual evidence to support my case.

I actually caught those references too, but unlike our navy and stuff, there is no useful Economy meter on info pages, instead encapsulating our status as "slowly growing" without any mention of base state. Didn't want to overshoot our status. Still, this would mean we are upper average probably, and my point of Ulthuan poorest > Empire richest still stands.

I was only arguing in regards to the Ostland part. I have no dispute with the rest of your argument.

True, Ostland as a whole was quite poor in beginning of quest to point that it was referred to as 'Hochland's little brother' since the tiny province had more wealth income than it.
Thankfully we have increased the average wealth of Ostland a great deal over the years through our increased industry and trade. Sure we are nothing compared to richer southern provinces, but Ostland is certainly not shit poor anymore. How much of that wealth trickles down from major noble/merchant families is the bigger question.
I imagine outside of major cities our smaller settlements are quite poor compared to peers in other provinces.

Eh, that might be the case if Ostland's taxes were especially high. But they aren't, they're actually lower than they probably should be, so I'm inclined to believe that Ostland as a whole has gotten significantly wealthier.
Other way around. Hochland is referred to as Ostland's little brother, not the reverse. As for our wealth compared to the south, I'm pretty sure we're at least above Stirland at this point.
It also can be the case if a lot of income goes directly to the treasury of the Elector-Count, like Eternity Stairs Rent and sales from the weapon and alcohol state monopolies.
