New Lords: Check Old Magic Requirements Before Spending

before you spend on an older magic, open the exact ability and check every listed requirement, not just its cost... I learned in Oldhaven that a missing prerequisite can make a tidy plan worthless. Write down the required research and level, then compare them with your own account.

if one requirement is still short, hold the resources and work on that first. Don’t assume the previous magic unlocks the next one; confirm the next entry’s own list before you commit. That small check saves a newcomer from spending toward a door that is still shut...
