[X] Stand your ground
Guys, Guys, Guys ! If a Waystone is tampered it can accumulate magic that mostly transform into dhar, right ?I think Stand Your Ground is fine for now. Yeah, something could pop out of the ground and try to eat us.
But we could call the cavalry away from the Expedition and then have it pounce there. One of the options is rushing back as fast as we can, after all, so it's eminently a possibility in Mathilde's mind.
I don't want to cry wolf and then have the wolf eat up the cows when everyone was busy defending the sheep.
That's an interesting idea, but if this were the case, you'd expect to still be seeing Karak Vlag and all the people and structures of it, right? Just, now being made entirely out of stone. You know, walls and gates of stone. Random stone people everywhere. Instead, even things like the mined out areas have been filled in with stone?I thought it was confirmation of the "everything in Vlag got turned to stone" theory, with the 'playing silly buggers with us' being about the Dwarfs and their whole stone/magic thing.
That only affects constructs made of Dhar. Raw Dhar isn't being strangled into a firm structure, so it's not vulnerable to a progressive collapse.Guys, Guys, Guys ! If a Waystone is tampered it can accumulate magic that mostly transform into dhar, right ?
Let's use the Second Secret of Dhar on the mountain !
Or the field was set up after he left - the amount of dhar/chaos-stuff may have made his perception screwy, and before the dhar faded/chaos-stuff receded, the entity working down there threw up the meme-field.Stone is an excellent insulator of magic.
Yes, I think we caught a deception so subtle that only a Grey Wizard magister would catch it. Teclis may be far above Mathilde as a mage... but he's not a professional paranoid!
I recommend standing our ground. Acting normal give the memetic field more opportunities to mindfuck us.It's a pity the Night Prowler side of the Coin only works in towns, it would have been handy to help with Act Normal.

I mean, I'm not sure it's all that subtle, but you're not wrong, Teclis isn't a professional paranoiac. He's a professional teacher/murder-hobo.Stone is an excellent insulator of magic.

That's a fair point. I wonder if we'll get told. Or work it out, even if it's just the thread, not Mathy. Still, one thing is for sure, magic be weird yo.That's an interesting idea, but if this were the case, you'd expect to still be seeing Karak Vlag and all the people and structures of it, right?

Presumably Run Like Hell would have the same benefit. I think I like our odds better fighting whatever's here with the entire expedition at our backs, and not just the quick response forces. Particularly the magical help.I recommend standing our ground. Acting normal give the memetic field more opportunities to mindfuck us.
Hmm, that seems reasonable...[X] Stand your ground
Personally I don't think we need to worry to much, there are miles of stone between us and the issue and stone is an excellent insulator of magic. As long as we have backup we should be fine.
AHHH, the Leech is affecting the thread too! Run, flee for your lives, your mind is not your own!!!there are miles of stone between us and the issue and stone is an excellent insulator of magic
