Well, the portal that exists from mid to late summer 1222 to mid to late summer of 1223 is to Harco, which is a pretty useful place to have a portal: crossroad of the Order and all.
Someone might be able to negotiate a better deal...
I also have not disclosed how much vis was netted from having the portal. Mons Electi collected 35 pawns of vis. This covered the cost for the specialists to cast the spell plus 5 pawns. Total cost for the ritual was 60 pawns equivalent, 30 pawns for the ritual and 30 pawns to House Mercere to cast it.
Korvin up to date. I did not have Viscaria time for LR Do i need to fit it into 1227?

Abagail is mostly there. Just missing the season that Viscaria wanted to use her. Any place that Korvin is giving her a virtur he is also giving her a flaw that he has. He will be using the Deficient Perdo flaw when he gives her the Mercurian virtue.

Theraphosa's building bridges, she can go with someone.
How about reserving 1228.1 for her?
Looks like I'm going to need help in the lab developing the CrTe Moon duration spells. Can I borrow BOTH apprentices in 1224.3 or 1225.2? I do not actually have the numbers for any of these yet. Need to double check if learning the existing spells is worth the extra season or not.
Dammit, how could I forget!? While all this is going on, Theraphosa and Viscaria also go, VERY QUIETLY looking for a necromancer with compatible political outlook.
No, his LR failed in 1227.4. It will happen in 1228 sometime when we get to it. He needs to have it before 1228.4, though or risk an aging roll without the benefit of having one.
Update the Chart and all will become clear to you.
Also, I don't mean to tell you how to raise your apprentice, but given that 90% of the library's Arts Summae are Quality 14+, if you're a Source Quality 15 for teaching, then I'd be spending that time teaching her skills like Penetration, Finesse or Concentration and letting her read about the Arts.

Peregrine and I have voted to spend our remaining 15 specialist points on a Linguist/Teacher. Com+3, Teaching 6, Languages 6. Where did you get your stats for the Com 2/Teach 5 Greek instructor? Do you want these two people to be the same guy?
I had nominally joked that the Linguist should turn out to be a Welshman related to Daffyd and Catrin.
