If you want an actual answer...
Because if we stop now then everything is functional and it works great. On the other hand, further improvements might succeed, might fail, and on a crit-fail might actually end up damaging the structure already in place.
I'm risk-averse.

Mathildes MOP would have had a certain charm, though, don't you think?
There was a lot of rediscovering of 'old Latin roots' by young nobles and intellectuals new-come from France. Strange how French a lot of them sounded.
Being as Latin as posibile was a rather politically charged thing in those day, but that particular part of Romanian history does not really apply to Silvania so probably best to end the conversation here.
This seems like a Jade Wizard shaped problem.
Guess we will need to spend an action or two on inter-racial-relations after all.
This says some very horrible things about the Empire as a whole and its treatment of Battle Wizards.
Nice to see her worst fears have proven unfounded and that the Wizards are getting the job done.

I think you missread, making serious sieges impossible (at least above groud-level) was the goal and we made it.
I'm against sinking time, money and favor into trying for the flexibility to strike any attacker immediatly, we don't need the tower to be able to do that.

Do you want it done on company time? If yes then it's ongoing.

this is hilarious. Also probably going to help deal with her magic phobia a bit. She was expecting death and fire and horror, she got weird. It's hard to hate and fear someone who comes off as dorks. Oh sure the sights of entire armies of undead being consumed in apocalypses of various flavors is going to act as a counterbalance that, but I suspect it's still going to nuder her feelings towards magic towards being more rationale about the risks and rewards.
While I disapprove of our previous partial-credit, my disapproval is slightly lessened since we were actually there to direct the cannons and counterspell. I'm not entirely opposed to creating a secondary shared-credit collection, but I feel that the ones she killed herself deserve pride of place over the ones she pilfered.

You make a valid point, and I'm sorry my only rebuttal is a joke.
But what about the dwarven cultural assimilation memes?!?!
...
Kidding aside while you have a point, I want to aim as high as we can, since it could drastically reduce future deaths. Which means a lowered chance of Belegar getting even more depressed.

By the way, is this any canonical mark or curse?
It sounds like something Grey to me, but Sleep is a minor spell, so it's propably not completly out of reach for any wind.

I think @DragonParadox hit the nail in the head: yes, what he is doing right now isn't going to make things better within his lifetime.
But he shouldn't be looking at it from that perspective alone, he should be looking at what K8P signifies for the Karaz Ankor: Hope.
The blood spilled here isn't erasing grudges, it's buying a ticket to a brighter future.

The Slayer tradition is quite fucked up, and few things are more damaging to the Dwarven race. Doubting it is correct.
Skill and talent, thrown into the dumpster because it wasn't quite in the right shape.
Holy shit, Belegar.
These are problems. Dwarven society reproduces very slowly, and they aren't nearly filling out available space. Something to consider.
Onto much happier matters.
Oooooh my god, did not think we would be at her side holding her hand for this, wow.
Aaaaaaaand we just named the probable future Emperor. Incredible.
Roswita was prepared for terrifying, she was not prepared for Weird. Pretty hilarious. Not getting eased into this.

Right now, we can't stop seiges during a rainstorm, which could last arbitrarily long with help from magic. All we need is a way to banish clouds for an hour and we'd be good. Honestly, a second tower for a weather controlling mage (forget what colour that is) would do it.

Yeah I just noticed I got it backwards. Gonna edit it real quick.

We know that the treatment of Battle Wizards used to be quite bad. It has gotten better under Dragomas, who successfully pushed a transition from "they are terrifying weapons of mass destruction" to "they are people who have sacrificed their right to ever have lives of their own for the sake of the Empire"; they are viewed as noble martyrs by the political leadership, as far as I can tell, modulo the political leadership's individual opinions on magic and wizards. But that means that most of them remember being treated as nothing more than a weapon, and one that might well harm its wielder. So Roswita's position as "the leader on the spot," treating them like people who get thanked for doing a dangerous and difficult task, is deeply meaningful to the ones that predate Dragomas's tenure as Supreme Patriarch.

Roswita is some downtime away from realizing the deepest, most terrible truth about wizards: in the end, they are, one and all, dorks.

It turns out that headpats are the optimal kind of leadership, who knew? I for one feel inspired to help the empire more after recieving a headpat from Algard.

I'd like to point out that this argument would hold more weight if the word for 'mayor' in French wasn't 'maire', so yeah.There was a lot of rediscovering of 'old Latin roots' by young nobles and intellectuals new-come from France. Strange how French a lot of them sounded.

Also, yep, conversation should end here.
Hmm, it's definitely got more to do with his state of mind, but couldn't Belegar's lifespan theoretically extend past the rebirth, re-fall and re-"getting swallowed by the sun in several million years" of K8P.
It's interesting, I wonder what dwarfs in general think of those who seem to have Stubborned their way to immortality, in the period where it's obvious they are one, but aren't at the 'living ancestor' point of automatic reverence.
There must be a protocol for what happens if a sitting king does The Thing, surely? You'd have a bunch of stagnation issues otherwise.

There's also Thorgrim's theory that having too many unavenged grudges in the Dammaz Kron is spiritually corrosive for the dawi.

It's pretty tempting to pick up some Clear Sky items, but given the relatively small area they clear up it'd probably be more efficient to try and get a permanent enchantment attached to/ near the death beam, I just worry that the celestial juice wouldn't play nice with the tower as a whole.
I suppose if we get the item version we really only have to pop a hole in the cloud coverage to locate the sun and then another to get the tower angle correct for a sky swap.
