So, I decided to install Fires' Pawn as Furnace's temporary replacement (after converting him to my side, of course), but I also thought it worth following up on Cornelius. I then rescued Furnace, but haven't yet reinstated her as a board member. I'm still able to follow Cornelius' path, though... sort of. I did the Investigating at Evenlode, and then the document decryption at Balmoral. But is there anything else I can do now? I don't want him on the board, is the only way to progress to convene the board and talk to him then? What happens if I help Furnace out first, does this storyline just kinda dead-end?
