PrePub - Ascendance of a Bookworm

Rather than making the teleportation circle trigger for Ehrenfest citizens, I'd give it the same permission mechanic as the barrier of the bookroom itself. Georgine might still have a sort of sleeper agent or several within Ehrenfest, who escaped the purge, who can enter the foundation on her behalf, if destruction is really her goal, rather than subjugation. Those subordinates would still be Ehrenfest citizens and thus be able to not trigger the circle, if it's exception is keyed to Ehrenfest citizens in general. But I'm 99% sure she has none in the temple itself. If she had loyal people inside the temple, there would never have been a need to involve Gloria and instead of a diversionary assasination attempt and kidnapping, she could have swapped out the keys without anyone ever becoming aware that anything had happened at all in the first place.

Sylvester made it sound like anyone who entered the duchy wearing silver cloth would trigger the alarm the moment they took off that protection, or am I misinterpreting his words here? Prior to today I assumed that you'd only need to wear the cloth while passing through the barrier, but could take it off once you were inside and then continue on by highbeast or wearing garments that don't stand out.

Hmmm... I wonder if there is some way for Rozemyne to get the other parts of the Grutrissheit by temporarily taking Ferdinand's name and then returning it, after the transfer is done. Erwaermen said she needed to take Quinta's feystone to obtain the missing parts, but does that only apply to the feystone left behind by a dead mana wielder, or can a name-swearing feystone tap into that too? If she ended up doing this, it would explain the colour illustration, in which Ferdinand seemed in pain. With her supposedly still being dyed in his colours, I suspect Ferdinand wouldn't be in much physical pain from having his stone dyed and we know he has a considerable ability to hide his own physical discomfort... but such an event would doubtlessly dredge up some memories of his father and he might have his self control temporarily reduced by getting connected to Rozemyne, who we know to be very emotional when it comes to family.
