Also, doing the whole "introducing girlfriend to the family" thing with Regimand might also make Panoramia feel pressured to do the same, and IIRC that would be even more awkward.

Although wasn't there a thought at one point about introducing her to Anton, since Mathilde does kind of think of him as a brother and there was that whole thing about his Aunt being a Jade?

Mathilde wouldn't be introducing Panoramia to her biological parents. And Boney did reply on the Anton thing. Apparently he couldn't think of a proper social action so it was scrapped.
 
Technically, we did already facilitate their meeting in the Duckling Club social of Turn 31, the same turn as Mathilde's scenic hike date with Panoramia.
 
I know it will not win but we should go to the fief if only for the reason of picking up the money stored there from the many years we have not been there.
 
Personally, I am more than okay with never returning to the fief, because the arrangement we have there, to allow using the money collected from taxes on public projects and as an emergency fund for natural disasters, is vastly more preferable to me than the alternatives. Like, with her job and the time toll it takes on her, Mathilde can be two kinds of a feudal lord: a benevolent absentee one, or just an absentee one.
 
And it's been like 2 whole weeks so the trail is definitely ice cold
Late but if this is sarcastic I dont think it's that's unplausible for the trail to be legit cold. Mathilde expressly gave all the credit to the Longshanks so the few that do know of her involvement Alric has immediate access to really would not be interested in sharing. Maybe the Sigmarite witch hunters if he thinks to check in on them, but I don't see them being any more willing to share info.

Most people in the area he could question would probably go "The Taalite witchunters killed a Chaos cultist. Right that makes sense Go Team!" And sure Mathildes pursuit did go public but for all the jokes I don't think most citizens who see a literally howling lady in a witch hat with a giant sword think "Grey Order was here"

All of these social actions sound great, which is terrible, because I am filled with despair that we will ever take the followup actions that are hanging around our social list like bad pennies. They keep consistently finishing just outside the cutoff.

Honestly yeah... what's up with the organ vat. Or skaven tech tree
 
Thinking about it one thing I would be interested in seeing is less an action and more a place. If it is convenient to any of the actions we choose this turn it would be great if we could see the living space of the Project. I have a pretty fair sense of what Mathilde's home in K8P looks like but far less of a one on the Laurelorn front. What does elf luxury really look like and what do some of the other people who live there think of it?
 
Maybe we could talk to Johann about his arm? See what he thinks of it now it's fully functional and he's had a while to get used to it, and also see whether he has any plans for what to do with his old arm now he no longer needs it?

....

What kind of plans do you have with your severed arm? It's not like you can donate it. I doubt you can just attach it to an amputee and have it work fine.

Research it and how gilding has affected it compared to a normal arm? Recycle it for the gold? Stuff it and put it on display as a conversational piece?

You can only get 10% of the gold value from recycle body parts according to Realm of Sorcery (yes it's actually specified. Value is lost in the process). The combined cost of Hand and Arm gilding is 300 and 400 respectively for a total of 700 GC. That's a total value of 70 gold assuming the arm being frozen hasn't reduced its value (I assume gold doesn't lose value due to being frozen or anything like that).

I guess if he's really hurting for money. In regards to researching Gilding, I'm pretty sure his forefathers have already done far more research into that subject than he can possibly contribute.

I'm not sure anybody has studied their own severed arm as part of a research project into gilding. And money is money is money. :V

Regardless, my point was basically that there are options, not that those were the only ones.

No, but I'm sure there's plenty of people who've died from gilding and probably signed some sort of waiver allowing the Gold College to dissect their body after death. What the Morrites don't know they can't interfere with.
 
I know, but I doubt either of them acknowledge it. It's not like Mathilde can go up to him to go "you're my daaaad. Boogie woogie woogie".
Well now I know what my write in is going to be.

The connection that Johann has with the arm may mean that there are insights to be gleaned that simply aren't possible between a random gold wizard corpse and the latest person to get the bright idea of studying them. Even if there aren't, that itself could conceivably be useful information.
 
Considering the time scale, I'd be entirely fine with an Eike social action every turn. In universe, nice to see her twice a year to stay in touch and get to know her more. On a narrative level, she's going to be a pretty major character for the rest of the quest, so I definitely want plenty of word count before that point to further establish and develop her as a character.

Mandred should definitely also happen soon, been too long.
 
Tea with Heidi and a visit to our godson to describe the horribly convoluted plot that could have shaken the very foundations of the Empire and cast doubt on Gabriella's very identity… then end it with "And I took care of it".
"Last Weisshaupt-Andersen should be really dead this time"
"... Hello Mathilde."

To be fair, my own father would also take that poorly


So, rando question about The Father side of the coin: do we have any leads with Ranald's kids? Like, should we turn it to The Father when around Loec worshippers, if Loec could be said to be any such thing? Salyak temples? Giving up a +20 luck boost is hard to justify at any time.

We strongly suspect the goddess Halétha is one of them. She's the protector goddess of the Forest of Shadows (as in she protects people from the Forest and teaches them how to carve out a place for themselves in it to survive, as opposed to Taal and Rhya's live-in-harmony-with-nature thing) and worshipped by the Ostermark Hedgewise. We're hoping this'll allow us to have an easier recruiting them for the Waystone Project.

Salyak is another name for Shallya.

There's a fairly widespread theory that Pit of Shades was an attempt to create a liminal realm by brute force - cutting open the barrier between reality and the warp on one side and forcing a bunch of air into it. When that didn't work, the inevitable follow-up would have been 'okay, what happens if we did that in the direction of an enemy?'

Come to think of it, there's similar theories for a lot of the more destructive Battle Magics.
Except in the Bright College. They expect most of their big spells to burn or explode something and, lo and behold, it works just as intended.
