"Getting expansed has nothing to do with how much concentration you have."
I was addressing all three ways of getting yourself killed. Random (redheaded bastard), incinerated (concentration. only one that never happens anymore), grey expanse (PP for direction/paying attention to reshaping messages)
"it's just baffling that someone who went through that would consider a trip to Ratha these days to take a long time."
I didn't mean specifically a long time. I consider risk of death/loss of xp to have a time value. Both, to me, put it "out of the way".
I realize this has become tangential though, as I defend my view of "stupidly out of the way." which was hardly important to the point of the cantrip taking forever to get because of a large random factor.

Fortunately Flare (not to mention Face) is not actually required and you can have a long successful career as a Moon Mage without obtaining it if you think it is too out of the way.
If I remember correctly, having the first two cantrips in distant and dangerous locations was partly for the amusement of the GMs in seeing who would go through all the trouble of getting them.

Good o' Rigby quests
If its any consolation gating the face cantrip at level, with the changes to RF, and without any outside aid is probably a clear sign of determination on the mages part. Though I did it back in the skellie rib throwing days, I did become very good friends with a moon mage who took up the journey at the same time I did. Dragging his body through that particular desert was interesting to say the least.
I'm still extremely thankful for the bard who helped me open the front door to the mansion and the way to the shard for the AP quest.
