[X] Tell Her About Natasha And The Others, Now: Different options, yes. More opportunities. The danger is clear, but if Natasha, Roland, Jaques, Oskana , and the Pegasus can get better protection and supplies by doing so, it should be worth it, right?

Was bouncing around Side Stories and came across this entry.
With an entire Black Ark overrun by Imperial forces, odds are good that a decent stash of Syrup will be found aboard.
The stuff takes years to solidify (which it does much like Honey) and its pretty simple to melt back into a fluid. One of the many looted treasures to be recovered from the Ark methinks.

Kessel should take the throne from the black ark. Not to act as his throne necessarily, just as a conversation piece for when he has guests around

Yes. Skulls have many appearances and signify things in the Empire, they aren't the sole property of Khorne.

Man, no wonder Magnus is seen as the 2nd best Emperor ever. Literally half of the Empire's lifespan has been spent in disunity and chaos without a single overarching Emperor, and now that Magnus is in charge everybody has to adjust to the first Emperor of a united Empire in over a thousand years. Welding back the squabbling provinces who've been separated for over a millenium is probably one of the greatesr feats of diplomacy ever seen in Warhammer.

Perfect opportunity for a vampire Empress, very much isn't but damn. The name and the Plate gown just add to the "Tell me your a vampire without telling me your a vampire" aesthetic. Fuck if you had told me That was an Olivia Voldaren expy, I would not have doubted it.

Not so amazing in my opinion. Ostland has been one of the poorest provinces of the Empire historically, and one of the big front lines against Chaos and other threats. Not to mention the crap Zacharias has pulled over the centuries. Ostland just didn't have the resources or status to promote a claim and make anyone take it seriously.
Which is what makes Freddy so amazing as well. In-quest, he's likely the first Elector Count of Ostland who has a strong chance of getting elected Emperor in the event of Magnus' passing, were he to stand for it.

Seriously doubt that Freddy would stand for election, but I would not be surprised if a descendant of his becomes Emperor/Empress in the future if Ostland's upward trajectory continues.

Any other provinces besides Ostland never produce an Emperor/Empress?
Okay, for real going to bed after this:
Just because there weren't the official Magic Colleges doesn't mean that it was impossible to get horrifically powerful magic users in the employ of the Empire. Random towns could even rent out powerful protections to sorcerers and the like, see the Witch Hunter Emperor's response to that - but there are also known magical schools opened up in the Empire prior. Like the one in Middenland, and also Ottilia I opened up a magical institution in an effort to shore up her own military power against the Elected Emperors. Yes, they were almost universally more deranged, more prone to accidents, more likely to die/explode/get cursed/be somewhat unstable/be of varying or lesser in power/summon daemons/etc. than the more strictly instructed Wizards of the later Magic Colleges, but they did exist. Some of them were quite powerful indeed, too. And yes, the Hedge Folk and Druids and Elementalists were a pretty longstanding tradition.
One of the most powerful of whom was Fozzrik, creator of the famous Fozzrik's Flying Fortress.
He was one of the most powerful wizards of all time, and he didn't have any schooling. Same for ol' Kadon, yeah? Greatest two-legged wielder of Ghur, ever, creator of the Scrolls of Binding, whose power are respected even by Teclis himself as they eclipsed even elven mages.
----
Also, Nordland got a shot at an Emperor and boy did that not go great, didn't get another before Magnus showed up and became Emperor, and Ostermark didn't break out into the League of Ostermark as its own province independent of Talabecland until, what, the 1900s? Something like that IIRC. Sleepy now. Night.
