That's not how it works, summons are minions if Velvet tells them not to invite anypony past the Blank Door they don't kill anypony.
Some collateral damage yes, a carpet of dead ponies no.
Just an airdrop attack that only involves Celestia.
Also, deliberately sabotaging Velvet in order...
Because Velvet isn't a magical researcher and is a busy mare with stuff to do and just noticed that it had the stuff (Winter) that Eclipse/Celestia was looking for?
Even if the find the curse it's not like they have equivalent artifacts so they'll probably use it anyway.
Besides it wouldn't...
It kinda depends on how much they know of the lores and how much they know that we know of the lores.
Basically it's Velvet's 'How did you get here?' trait being put into effect
The Bureau does have the lores (not sure how much Celestia/Eclipse knows about that though), Cadence has the basics...
I also forgot probable medicine costs (quickly add that in) but yeah befriending our Forge Name first is probably better given our financial state.
I kinda want to gift the Winter artifact to Celestia/Eclipse, might even get some bits from them as reimbursement or at least use it as an excuse...

I fail to understand how you fail to understand that it's both.
We need to do are best to succeed on both expeditions.
Which means instead of going in half fast and probably failing anyways on both expeditions wasting a ton of ap and bits just prioritize one must succeed expedition at a...
Right wrong ritual, is actually 30 bits cheaper then I thought.
Still just misses the amount we'll probably need though.
???
Where's Biedde coming from?
I suggested that we'll probably need to send Baldomare.
Your underestimating the difficulty of the expedition here by a lot.
Because...
We don't have the bits for a long expedition for multiple Names given your instance on wasting any chance of us gaining bits all the time.
We'd need at least 360 bits for a long expedition to go after a level 7 book. Baldomare, Axe and Mareinette at very least.
Which runs counter to our...
For we know the Dept collection could contain hints to the unbound Name. (Very likely if they were a former cultist)
Hell it might even be Windy.
Whatever is involved though Copper thought it was worthwhile which means it's probably pretty valuable.
Look, given Celestia's Celestianess...
Just send our Shattered Risen, Jade and Comet as the leaders.
They're short expeditions afterall.
Axe is still free if her AP is needed on the Forge Reagent expedition.
Besides we don't have bits or the ap for any long expeditions at the moment.
Also Filthy Rich and Servants can cover our...
I was thinking for the gang assault expedition.
Biedde's good at intimidation and if there's a fight he can handle it.
Keep in mind we've seen Risen commit prep before though.
I wish that were possible or at least dumping it on Velvet's trusted friend Mareinette but I heavily doubt we're allowed to do that.
I'm pretty sure this is more like our deal with Comet. Not something we're allowed to cheat on.
Huh, so it is.
It's probably still less trust then just teaching the rituals but at least it's something.
Still probably the second least trusting of all option though.
Anyways, I still don't think we have the ap to spare for this sort of thing.
Sigh, I always though if we were going to be...
As far as I'm aware though instructions and training are not really included in the Freedom option though?
Tools gives training, Inspiration gives instruction, Influence gives responsibility and Freedom gives, well, freedom. Only Freedom involves not teaching Soft anything new or preparing her...
