His body is missing and, he may have access to the food that can't be recovered, so it might be viable to use magic to look for him.

Even if he had food, and any food in the wagon would probably have perished by now even if it survived the fall and the rocks and could be extracted from underneath said rocks, he doesn't have any water. At all.

He's dead. What magic would you even suggest to look for him with?

Isn't he that Gotrek, the slayer that won't die in a alternate timeline.

It's reasonable to assume Mathilde already used her Magesight in the search if it was going to help. (Would it? I'm not entirely usre).

As it happens, he never got that far. Here, he was just a very skilled engineer. Someone else will have to wield Grimnir's Axe, if indeed it is ever found at all.

We went over this already. Different Gotrek, he is not a slayer and doesn't have the axe and we already looked for him and we saw the rolls saying he's dead.

Dont start this up again.

As far as mathy is considered he is very dead, she does not know the 'other' Gotrek, so why would she think he is more likely to survive?

As far as the quest goes he is dead unless Boney brings him back.
 
The really impressive thing is that, from the Council and co's perspective, Mathilde will have come up with that fifteen foot long scroll of conspiracy theories explaining "wut the fuk" in like, five minutes flat.

This is gonna be glorious.

"Is this normal?" they ask the other Wizards.
"For a Grey Wizard? The only surprising thing is that she hasn't come up with one pinning it on Celestials. I guess she likes Hubert, " they answer.

28 Learning is a hell of a drug. Also having a bunch of voices from another universe in her head, or however we manifest properly.

Also, they're probably slightly hardened to our crazy ideas when we came up with a solution to suddenly not having enough food really easily.

As I mentioned before, whereas I totally believe him to be dead, for decades almost all genres of fiction has been reinforcing the trope "Never give someone/something dead until you see his/her/its corpse" so a lot of people are going to speculate that he may have been saved somehow, even if the roll says that he died.

one day mathilde will actually consciously hear us through some means or another, and on that day she will question everything she knows.
 
Things that killed Gotrek:

  • A series of unfortunate events
  • The Plotter
  • Ranald
  • Engineering Radicalism
  • Engineering Conservatism
  • Rocks
  • Gravity
  • A Shoddy Mountain
  • To Everyone's Surprise, Gork


(But whatever it was, he's definitely dead.)

So, we basically still have 2 weeks of food stored in the steam-wagons, as we ate the cows first. So when we make our way back, we can buy more cows.

First thing after reaching civilization, order some potato salad, chicken pie, apple cider and some ranald damned fruits.

They lead an active lifestyle so cholestrol and blood pressure are not supposed to be a problem.

I bet they would require some laxative though...
 
This idea that he's just missing and is finding grimnir's axe is a forlorn and desperate hope. I'd be willing to accept it if boneyM goes there, but it is absolutely not likely.
