It's very likely that Dwarven Runes are able to do this, it's just that it hadn't been considered a priority before for whatever reason. Now it's considered a vulnerability so I can see it being something worked on over the next few years.

Hah, all things considered, that paper we just tossed out is going to go on the list of Great ones, huh? What amounts to being a full establishment of the mechanism of greenskin magic--and how best to dismantle it--is of incredible strategic value to the Empire, and as it involves a fundamental breakdown of the other side rather than specific countermeasures, it's viable for literally every kind of caster there is, huh?

Nah, the rolls for "who attacks while karagril assault is happening"
The rolls for karag Yar to attack us had a huge bonus

It's a trust thing, I think. Or a lack of trust thing.
You are aiming too low. Given that the City of Pillars is Clan Mors most powerful and renowned fortress, if Gnawdwell still lives after the fighting in Skavenblight ended, he will be here. Just imagine the secrets we could gain from a former member of the Council of Thirteen!
He's even easily bribable, since he should already be very elderly at this point, and according to the wiki he maintains his life by the use of Skyre doping elixirs. Which he won't have access to when imprisoned. We could dangle the services of the Jade college to prolong his life in front of his whiskered nose...
Remember, Hybris is a cowards word.

I assume this is from the perspective of the dwarves.

That's not what they said, at all. Dwarves just don't react well to magic internally.

Belegar let us make a doom mountain that in the wrong hands could've wiped out the entire East Valley before Gazul got involved.

If using hysh to cleanse water makes the water poison to dwarfs, then why wouldn't using ghyran to grow food make that food poison to dwarfs?

Stuff messing with the water is likely to be a touchy subject, given that's how Eight Peaks fell in the first place.

Given Belegar's reaction to the doom mountain I'm pretty sure that the method of Eight Peaks' fall would make him like the idea.

Does this mean that a Wizard can Counter-Spell without knowing Dispel?
For Dwarves, yes.
The Jade Magic encouraging growth will likely fade well before any Dwarf eats it, if only due to processing, but any influx of Magic into a Dwarf that's not Rune Approved will likely turn bits of them into stone.

The dog we got was a very small dog and the skaven is quite large. I don't think it's going to be an issue and if Mathilde thought it would be an issue she wouldn't have done it.
K8P was a well established hold before it fell, wouldn't it not having rune based water purifiers imply that they aren't a thing dwarves can do?
That's the thing though, unless something goest terribly wrong (I'm looking at you, Sunscryer), basically any spell that isn't pemanent should be leaving magical energies in it's target in such a way that is sticks there.
Like, you take the "pipe section of Cleansing Glow" and put it in the sun for a few hours, and it absorbs Hysh, then in use, it makes that hysh do the work of cleaning; at which point it should immediately flow off towards the nearest bright place, or even into the waystone network, if it's that much: what I'm saying is, none should stay anywhere near the water, because if it's pooling like that Dhar isn't far behind.

Lotsa things pulling at me now that there aren't any BIG MOMENTS (aside from Kragg who is basically a lock-in I imagine 
)
[x] King Belegar, as he arranges for Clan Ironspike to rejoin their ancestral home from Karak Hirn.
[x] Gunnars, to see if you can pierce his terse nature.
[x] Gretel, who's apparently spending her newly-earned wealth to make herself at home.
[x] Max, during the few breaks in the silence as the two of you worked on Queekish in the Room of Serenity.
[x] Elder Hluodwica, as the Halflings prepare for their first proper harvest festival in this new home.
[x] Francesco Caravello, proud leader of the Undumgi and possible future Thane.
[x] Sir Ruprecht Wulfhart, as the new home of the Winter Wolves takes shape.
[x] Karak Hirn, to satisfy your curiousity about Prince Ulthar.
[x] Kasmir, to see how he's keeping himself busy in Sylvania.
[x] Anton, to see how his firearm factory is going.
[x] Wilhelmina, to see how she's going when she's not a terrifying financial juggernaut.
[x] The Amber College, to see how your donation of Lustrian eggs is going.
[x] Kragg, who's begun to be seen around the Karak once more, indicating he might be finishing his study of the rune-axe you and Johann found.
[x] Check in on your fief in Stirland.
[x] Yes, have one social interaction be initiated by someone other than Mathilde.

As far as i am aware Dispel is for breaking enchantments and ongoing magic spells, counterspelling is for interfering with magic in the moment it is cast. Dispel destroys a skeleton a necromancer raised, counterspelling prevents him from raising more. Seems like two different things to me.

Well, does anyone remember what he actually looks like?
So does he smell like smoke or is his hair made up of smoke?
Seriously though, does he have any or does he hide them so well that we can't tell?

I think it also has to do with K8P past history with water additives. Being that the skaven dumped warpstone into their supply.

They might have not thought about it? Did K8P fall before or after the earth-shaking, skaven crawling in from the cracks bit happened?

Or that the Skaven managed to either bypass or destroy them somehow.

There are a bunch of religious implications with runes. My guess is that if the dwarfs could have but didn't because they thought the purifiers they had would be enough.
