Belegar is not uzed to mhornzhuf, he doesn't know we can look for survivors.

So...? That doesn't mean we shouldn't follow orders and do it.Belegar is not uzed to mhornzhuf, he doesn't know we can look for survivors.
Ah, I misinterpreted your previous post as arguing for something other than survivor search. Sorry.So...? That doesn't mean we shouldn't follow orders and do it.
If we can find him or even find his body and bring him back that is quite a bit of dwarf favor right there.As the Okral lists its grievances, primarily the apparent death of the leader of Karaz-a-Karak's Metalsmiths Guild
Apply the same text as the Seed of Regrowth.Can we even safely use substance of shadow on dwarves? It won't turn them to stone will it?
I'm envisioning that we use it to find survivors and then dwarfs rescue them.Can we even safely use substance of shadow on dwarves? It won't turn them to stone will it?
Again, Belegar gave the priorities. Survivors first. Then answers.
Pretty sure they need prolonged exposure to magic for that process to start. It might be unpleasant, but being uncomfortable is better than drowning.Can we even safely use substance of shadow on dwarves? It won't turn them to stone will it?
My understanding is that it's not healthy, but unhealthy beats dead anyday.
No worries, I understand.Ah, I misinterpreted your previous post as arguing for something other than survivor search. Sorry.
That's what Substance Of Shadow is for.Belegar has more people who can help with that. We can't breathe underwater, and we're poorly suited to search and rescue.
Chaos dwarf mages takes years to decades to turn to stone.My understanding is that it's not healthy, but unhealthy beats dead anyday.
... @BoneyM question. the whole searching the ship thing, that Mathilde does. Is this "use Substance of Shadow to go through the wall" and then search normally when we're inside, presumably doing the same thing for every wall we come across, or is it, like, we would need to stay Substanced the entire time we're inside? Because, uh, if the problem is making an entrance couldn't we let Belegar borrow Branalhune to cut holes through the walls? Any water that's in there would come spilling out, and I doubt people would be left alive in those parts anyways... Unless there's some reason another person can't use Branalhune if we're letting them? I mean, it is called Way Opener...
Belegar has his own quite nice runed axe thank you very much.... @BoneyM question. the whole searching the ship thing, that Mathilde does.

"Barak Varr's reinforcements should arrive by dawn," Belegar says as the gyrocarriage begins its descent. "Our first priority is to make sure that nothing further happens to them. Second is answers. Third is vengeance. Understood?"
Moratorium still has 8 minutes.Boss set the priority, so
[x] Use Substance of Shadow to check the wrecked passenger ship for survivors
Oh, okay. I misread that and thought it was, like, halfway onto the bank or something. IF it's mostly underwater... yeah, I don't really think we should go looking for survivors right now. Like, this is a dwarven ship. If anything survived well enough for there to be survivors, those survivors are going to last for longer than a day. And the entire area's being fortified already. They can wait. tracking, can't.Only the tip of the funnel is above water. Cutting holes in the hull would rather defeat the purpose. Also SoS is as much to not get monched by the skull piranhas as it is to get through the hull.
So...? That doesn't mean we shouldn't follow orders and do it.
