With the kind of payload they've got saved up, even if we perfectly counterspell the actual spellwork just the leftover dhar from the shattered spell is still going to be enough to kill everybody.

I guess we pray the Karaz Ankor network can handle having a power surge of this size dumped into it.

The batteries are charging, but presumably still low after so much time draining the reserves

It's not just the batteries, it's having 185 years of power rammed through the network all at once. It's got to go somewhere, and I doubt there's going to be a "vent magic into upper atmosphere" button.

If anyone would have a function like that, it'd probably be the dwarves.
That is the canon(ish) answer.
its A mini warp realm of endless dwarf suffering.

Hi theres this thing called the great vortex it does one better by venting the magic into space.
They have standard scout horn signals. Can't explain in detail, but Threat + Magical + Send Dragon should be a decent warning to round up wagons, and break out the counterspellers to stand ready.

Absent Karak Vlag unexpectedly reappearing, the network isn't going to be getting anything. Karak Vlag was the intermediate point between Karag Dum and the rest of the network; Karag Dum sent all its magical waystone juice to Karak Vlag, and then Karak Vlag's waystones were responsible for forwarding that to the rest of the network. Without the ritual, the power from Karag Dum will just get dumped into the stone instead of being used for a ritual.
The minimum amount of time, though it will usually not take longer than that unless Mathilde is both magically exhausted and in a very low-magic area.
No and no. A lot of bare rock means a lot of overlapping echoes, and Deathfang is not a taxi.

Tell that to the Dwarves that declared a Grudge against a mountain.

IIRC that was a psychological scapegoat.

"Well, I've got nothing."
Okay, this line right here has me wondering if the power going into this might not be fueling some effect aimed at Karag Dum.

Speaking of, that Rune makes fighting Dragomas theoretically possible: his big move is a transformation spell, so, assuming we don't get killed in the first pass, we might be able to cheese the win by locking out Amber's bevy of self-buffs. This is assuming a great deal and not at all a good idea, but it is there.

That rune works against spells targeted at Mathilde. It won't do anything to his transformation.
Which is good, because that would seriously weaken a pretty strong asset of the Colleges and Empire. Relearning that spell wouldn't be easy, and mastering it as he probably has would be even harder.
I have some interest in fighting Dragonas... but none in taking his job.
Maybe he'll agree to spar.

The sword rune for shutting down magical buffs might work though.

That's what I meant. I thought it was clear that I was referring to the rune that had just been discussed.
Kragg's master rune would present a problem, though: generally considered poor form to cut your predecessor in half. Doesn't exactly have a stun setting.
Not impossible, but probably not from what we've seen. The dragon stone we bought needs to add some magic to have the user turn back, and if that is dispelled, then they just stay a dragon. There's no reason to think Dragomas' transformation works differently, since the drawback, "caught in an alien body and slowly losing their mind", isn't an issue for the Ambers. They can turn back on their own, and they've got the training to not lose their mind.
I think you underestimate how though a dragon is. And it does have a sparring setting.

1. I don't see why Transformation of Kadon would be uniquely immune to dispelling.
2. The worry is that the sword would dispell the transformation and then go on to carve through his human body. Depends on the order of operations the runes work under.
Because we've seen how it works. We bought a battle altar enchanted with the Transformation, and what I described is how it works. Go check out that part of the thread if you want the details (it's in response to Belegar asking us to find a counter to Cython. You'll have to go through some other discussion, because the idea only gets momentum after a fair bit).

They're suggesting that the spell is a permanent effect.
Dragomas is human > Dragomas casts his spell > Dragomas is now a dragon > Spell is complete and there's nothing to dispel.
Dragomas is a Dragon > Dragomas casts his spell > Dragomas is once more a human > Spell is complete, there's nothing to dispel.
