I could have sworn there was some comparison to bees in regards to the We.

Regardless, @picklepikkl made a good point about the loyalties of the weaver fellow. The spider fellow is working with something far too different, and he is potentially biased.
 
You're not able to bask in the news you've become known to the Emperor himself, as you've suddenly realized where you've seen this woman before. "A pleasure to meet you!" says the woman who was once known as Countess Gabriella von Bundebad brightly, closing the gap between you before you can react and taking your hands in hers. "I'm sure we've so much in common!" And hidden by her hands, she folds one finger over another in the sign of the Gambler, and with a tiny sliver of divine attention that leaves you feeling giddy, an always-familiar presence gives confirmation.

"The pleasure is mine, your Majesties," you say faintly.

As you try to wrap your head around the magnitude of the plot Ranald appears to have expended his divine bounty upon,
Guys. We helped do this. All that Divine Power Ranald Mugged from Gork and Mork? He spent it getting one of his followers made into the fucking Empress.
 
[X] Kragg the Grim, who you could likely convince to start gloating.
This is mandatory.
[X] Karak Hirn, to satisfy your curiousity about Prince Ulthar.
Not a high priority, but I'm curious.
[X] Empress 'Heidi', to see if you can snatch a private moment to speak honestly with her.
This is also mandatory. I wonder how that quest felt when Ranald suddenly got a power boost from the same wizard that broke the conspiracy (which I suspect put her in charge of that place in the first place, but perhaps sole based on similar looks, so she's probably not too broken up about it).
[X] Write-In: Regimand, so you and you're father figure can be smug together.
What can I say? Smug for the smugness.
[X]Write-In: Panoramia, because you appreciate her starry-eyed wonder and never got to do the big sister thing with your actual siblings
Admittedly, we don't know Mathilde has siblings, but it's a safe bet given she's a peasant. Now, whether any of those are still alive? @MoneyB can bop me if it's assuming too much.

[X] A bathtub, an even better place for reading.
It's just such a power move, turning a dragon skull into a bathtub.
[X] Loremaster: Expert on beekeeping
Seems to be the one most helpful for their social structure.
May luck be with you
This would normally be kinda generic, but coming from a 25 Piety Ranaldite...

Wow, good turn.

What do you even talk about first? A very good Roswita and Matilde scene is just blown out of the water by the revelation of the Empress. Ulthar keeping an ear to the ground back in K8P. Wizards crushing it across the board.

The final days of Frederick Van Hal, Vlad's confirmed 'best mortal' and BFF. I'm kind of amazed that at no point during that conversion from genius to genius lunatic did Vlad step in and turn him. I guess he was an experiment in the end, but clearly Vlad is the kind of pet owner to get crazy attached.

what

WHAT
 
It really highlights just how much of an embarrassment modern necromancers and all unfinished Liber Mortis copies are, considering on what kind of note the actual book ends, and with Vampiric co-author finishing it half a step away from outright saying a firm "No. Don't." to the reader.

Looking at the prevailing votes, I have to laugh at the prior insistence that we had to invest actions in the EIC so that we stayed in touch with the Empire and people in it, as otherwise we'd be abandoning it. And now the prevailing vote is to spend five out of six social slots to spend time with Imperial humans after spending almost all the turn main actions on interacting with Imperial humans or being in the Empire.

We're never going to get to know the other councillors at this rate, or ever talk on-screen to a human that's not from the Empire.

Yeah, two of these are mandatory for me, Ulthar is nice to have, I got no strong opinions on all other options, too busy being satisfied with everything.

Lol. I thought the Gray's killed her for being related to the weird vampire/chaos cult thing.
IT IS DECREED, that this declaration will be in effect from this day until the last Vampire is driven from the Empire's borders.
Gracious. The Royal Fuck Off bomb has been deployed.

Guys? Is Mathilde the villain of someone elses campaign?
Like Roswita quest will eventually track the thief of the Liber Mortis to us and confront us in our tower on a mountain sitting in a dragon skull?
- Seriously, write in anyone, and if you like, the reason for your visit or the event you wish to witness.
[X] Spend time with Babby Dragon at the zoo. Because Dragon.
There does seem to be a trajectory forming that ends with Mathilde having a room that's basically the virtual armoury scene from the Matrix except with magical items.
Retrospectively:
Do you think that establishing a precedent that hidden dimensions can be used by the Gray College for purposes as trivial as keeping a desk clear will accelerate this trajectory.
