You mean like we won our Magister duel by quickdrawing our gun?
If Dragomas won thanks to his Dragon Form, did he won or did Cathay?

I think you misunderstood me. What I was trying to say is that even if Dum has fallen or been subverted to Chaos, they could still have left the Waystone in tact because it doesn't grant them any additional power and the current occupants therefore might be amenable to play along with the Vlag scheme.
he did, because he can cast it.You mean like we won our Magister duel by quickdrawing our gun?

Mathy can not recreate the sword.
and Mathy had to retake that test, so that's a point to my argument.

It seems to me that this topic skirts closer to the topic we were asked not to discuss than the topic of whether quests with a trans main character transitioning through magic in an otherwise regressive world is feasible.
You are after all directly discussing the interaction between mind alteration and body alteration in relation to dysphoria.
If Kragg had taught us Runecraft and we then made the sword ourselves under his instructions, winning with it would definitely count as proof of our personal magical prowess.

Ridiculous. It disappears, and she brings it back into existence. What is that if not recreating it?
I disagree. Keeping the Waystone active most likely draws enough magic away from Dum that any chaotic inhabitant of the Karak could not make use of such features as easy manifestation of Daemons from their favored patron and shaping the terrain to their own liking. It's a serious disadvantage, making holding Dum less attractive than just grabbing any old piece of Chaos Waste. Certainly there are some Warlords who might do it anyways for reasons from wanting a somewhat stable base to Tzeentchian Just As Planned, but it seems relatively unlikely to me.
I mean, if you are the sort of lunatic who wishes to make a base in the Chaos Wastes, you probably want a base that is as easily accessible to your gods as possible.

Megumin arch-matriarch would be fun. I mean dangerous. To the city.
It would be an adorable doom tho.
Few things of note in last chapters:
Working to see more of it would be very good was to sharpen magesight and extend its scope past typical winds. Whatever is what repels winds, is not a wind itself. It is either soul-related, divine-related or rune-related. Whatever it really is, learning to perceive it fully would be of great help.
I think it's viable self-improvement action once we return to K8P.
It's nice to look back and see the long road to greatness Mathilde went through.
Now, this is fascinating. When Mathilde focuses strongly she can perceive influence that repels magic from dawi. Not as result of that, but influence itself. It's both interesting and important.

Ah, how Mathilde grew over time... on the beginning of quest the rolls like that were used keep her alive against single zombie or skeleton. Not this roll decides result of her charge against of host of demons.

We've actually seen - the College heads are too busy to leave the city for long. Its not a job to be envied.

Considering too that thanks to our magesight we just managed to see past a magical insulator... an upgrade to magesight might be on the tables once we finish this.
I only regret that we hadn't the actual time to see past Pall of Darkness.

My best guess is it's divine influence we're perceiving through Avatar.

Theoretically, sure, but in practice that would basically be staring at dwarves really hard to learn how their divine protections work. Not sure it would be allowed, and might look very creepy if we don't ask permission or explain what we're doing. Also it would be best to practice on Runesmiths and they're usually pretty busy.

wait ...
Does that sally port of Gazul have something to do with this?
I can't see how though. It'd be practically the opposite of the first guy's idea.
Maybe something in relation to there being a need to cycle dead dwarf souls through the realm of Gazul in order to make new dwarf souls? and right now most of the dwarf souls are stuck in the warp, failing to carry back whatever is needed for Gazul to manufacture new dwarf souls?

yes, a few more upgrades and we'll have the best magesight without qualifiers

I just realised that... Slaanesh thought that it was optimal to take the Waustone energy... and eat it.
you have completely murdered that joke 100 pages back.
I disagree. Is it the funniest thing on earth? No. Is it funny enough to merit a post? Yes.

I really don't see why there has to be some kind of metaphysical reason.
They did assault the Skaven city close to Altdorf though and Algard took time to come to K8P to install our own Tower of Doom. The Gold Magister Patriarch Feldman is currently leading the forces in Sylvania; the former head of the Amethysts also died fighting in Sylvania. That's just the stuff we know but it isn't like the College heads would only do their outings where Mathilde can see them.
Overall they College heads don't seem much more tied by their position in Altdorf than Mathilde is being as Karak Eight Peak's loremaster - she spends most of her time at her primary job related place/wizard tower but she also travels extensively, sometimes for long periods of time.
The fact that the Bretonnian process for moving up from the social rank of peasant is literally "become a Knight or die trying" in no way indicates that large numbers of peasants succeed in becoming Knights. I'm pretty sure that 'Knight Errant' is just one of those Bretonnian polite fictions springing from stories of peasants going out to do great deeds and getting Knighted for their achievements - in a less euphemeistic society they'd be called 'peasants with death wishes' or 'mercenaries' or the like, which would more accurately describe them as just another form of peasant (if one that's taken up violence as their profession rather than farming or baking or whatnot).
Similar to how in our world men-at-arms were often just as skilled/capable as actual knights but were called something differently because despite their fighting skills they didn't have the social rank or economic backing of actual knights.
