I did but then Mathilde went on her Dwarfcation and so the changes haven't really been demonstrated. When Mathilde can take advantage of the new system it will be fully explained, but the short version is if you want to increase a trait, also pick the skill she'll be cultivating to enable that increase. I believe the example I used was learning Dwarven War Yodelling to increase Diplomacy.

Just wait until she starts using the Coin Protector face. Then she'll be both bad at diplomacy and famous for wrecking evil face and being a god favorite.
On second thought maybe it's a good idea to always use a generic grey magister Doppelganger when using that face. Popular PR without the risks of being invited to important parties (except ofc the grey college will know).

Add invisibility spell learning to the list. Proper spell which does not drop on action could be priceless for assassinations/getting the hell out.
Also, might get around to learning how to Advanced Greatsword because QM clarified it'd push us into tabletop WS5 from WS4. And that's...quite killy.
Mathilde existing does that anyway.

One thing I think which is far more significant is the Chaos Dwarfs plus Kragg. They are so significant of a bad thing that uh, well I don't think we'll still have our hearing after he gets done yelling.

I've got 99 quests, I've finished one
Would the learned traits only provide bonuses to things in their purview, or would the stat boost apply to everything? For instance, if we learned Undead Lore to boost our Learning, would it only apply to identifying and fighting Undead, or would it apply to casting Ulgu spells as well?

as it should have
Speaking of properly compartmentalized spoiler information, that reminds me, might you now reveal to us what was up with former Patriarch Hexensohn and his little misadventure at Drakenhof? Did he show up due to a very good reinforcement roll, or a very bad one? Did Patriarch Algard ever get any answers out of Matriarch Elspeth on the subject?

I mean, yeah it sucks we got possessed by Mork, but as they can clearly tell, we're perfectly fine. The fact that we fed his energy to our God is just icing on the cake that is Matilada's stance of 'Fuck Mork and also Gork'.
As for the Chaos Dwarf Thing? Honestly, I would like to learn that IC, and I do think its important for the dwarves to know that the Black Orcs are a Tzeentchian Plot to divide the Greenskin Gods.

It is impossible to stop shadow from doing its own things, as the fact that shadows act on its own is arcane mark. But is it not impossible to consciously control how is behaves.

Learning Undead Lore would grant you the Undead Lore skill and also come with +1 Learning on the side, which would be universal to all Learning applications.
I can't imagine how it would be relevant to be honest. What are they supossed to do, send a letter to their mad kin to stop with the sorcerous experimentation?

Nah, he already converted the chips from green to grey, I don't think their source affected him overly much.
Not that we have any idea whatsoever though, it's some Deep Theological Lore Mathilde'd need some decade of nerding out on religion to even start making decent guesses about.
Well...yes. That's more important than Mathilde doing Stupid Umgi Wizard Reckless Things again (that's just day starting with T in dwarven eyes).
But we IC have no clue dwarves are so, so, so infuriated and ashamed of Chaos Dwarfs. Kragg/Belegar are probably as good of IC way for Mathilde to grasp depth of the issue as she is going to get....
well
Well, Belegar alone would be better for that specific thing, but he'd be utterly fucking confused by Mork/Ranald part of the story, while Kragg can get what's happening way better.
Plus Kragg, by virtue of being 1000 years old, likely knows more about all of it.
So I think we need both, even if we will need to use Seed to restore our hearing after Kragg is done grumbling.
I can't find a reference to magic nto manifesting until the teens. Realms of Sorcery refers to ten year old apprentices as if that's normal.
I would hope you can influence its behaviour like a particularly dangerous and exotic wild animal. It might never become truly tame, but that doesn't mean you can't get it to mostly behave as you need it to.
Kragg will. Belegar may not.
Is... is this actually a thing we can learn? Because if so I really want to just for the looks we'd get if we busted it out.

We've told the people what we wanted to tell them, I don't see a need to elaborate. King Belegar has said it best, that the things we do won't be part of songs, but we'll have saved countless lives. I don't see how Kragg or King Belegar can use the information we provide, and I have no desire to chance a straining of relations regarding communicating about the Chaos Dwarves and being possessed by Mork for a while. I just don't see what we would gain, but I do see what we would risk with this option.

good luck explaining to teenagers that they have to be careful and are not invulnerable

No, but it would help to know to prioritize the Black Orcs even more then they normally do, and I would like to learn that story IC as I said. I think it would be interesting, and I trust we have enough Dwarf Rep, that Belegar isn't going to be pissed that we're asking him about it when we learned about the Chaos Dwarves existence because of a Greenskin Vision.
Plus there's that nice Dwarf Favor boost from knowing we helped our God take Mork to the cleaners.
A very bad one. Not everyone believes the Van Hal family redemption story.
Then they decided to try to sort out some other business while they were in the neighbourhood, and whoops. The nature of that side business is still under the aegis of wheels in motion.
