    Wanda isn't a royal. She's barbarian Heir (and, briefly, Overlady) to a destroyed non-royal side. Her father and ruler was, like Stanley, Overlord, not King.
    Play your character, not your alignment.

    I wonder exactly how difficult it is to cast one out-of-discipline spell over another. That is, how difficult it would be to cast Turnamancy (shares its element, Motion, with Croakamancy, but is on the Erf axis instead of Croakamancy's Fate) over, say, Changemancy (element of Matter, Fate axis). Given Wanda's comments about Dollamancy (Fate axis, uses only the element of Motion) and assuming that spells of disciplines too far removed from the base discipline are only available after many turns of solid study (i.e. orders of magnitude longer than Wanda had time for in her entire life up to this point) means that Turnamancy is as difficult for Wanda as Dollamancy, if not more difficult. So, we look for something "closer to home", as it were. Shockmancy shares all its elements with Croakamancy (the only other choice being Retconjuration, useless for obvious reasons), and with a sufficient blast could easily knock Branch off the tower parapet, to die as a proper villain should.

    Calling it now.

    20 Schmuckers says Wanda uses Shockmancy to assassinate Dame Branch, with a raise to 50 if Jillian spills the beans about Temple first.

    In my posts, smilies generally correspond to my expression at the time. As an example, means "huh?" and "Hmm..". Also, "Landis" is fine.

    Easy solution: come back later, and read both storys when they are finished
    I agree, but the main story is barely moving forward. The action with Jetstone is okay, but it's been a year and Parson still hasn't walked through that damn portal!

    I understand that there are high hopes he'll make it through two strips from now, on the 100th strip.

    I like how Jack got them into the city, and kept them veiled while they ended turn and waited until Olive sent all her troops out to scout so there were no defences left. :)
