Through my voyage west, i've came across a need to hire back a certain monetary expert again, without the means to do so. I've heard there's an abundance of these later on, thus my humble request of assistance in collecting 50 of those.

My profile, shall you consider supporting this endeavor. https://www.fallenlondon.com/profile/cumblaster69

Hi, this is Alexis-chan! A few months ago, I commissioned a friend to draw (and edit) an MV for Firmament Chapter 6 as a birthday gift for Alexis-chan's 55th birthday (No, of course it's not me in person. The OP always mixes up my self-references with my own FLPC. Although Alexis-chan's birthday is August 22nd, and I completely missed it, I can still get it out before the Firmament epilogue 🤤). I finally got the friend to send over the finished draft edit 😉 (Once again, thanks to Saloyor... Actually, Alexis-chan's official face comes from Saloyor-chan's hands. She's Alexis-chan's mother-artist 🥺)

✨⚠️✨ · The Tatterdemalion of the Alexis-chan universe has five native fingers, not four. · The appearance settings of the Other Duchess, Whitsun, St Margaret's Day, and Beltane come from the Alexis-chan universe. (Sorry, I kneel. I play Type-Moon games. Joan of Arc has to have braids!)

No matter what, I always feel that Go Go Ghost Ship (ゴーゴーゆうれいせん) fits the Firmament story perfectly. It started because on January 1st of this year, Alexis-chan happened to reach the Firmament Chapter 6 plot where Mary kills her stepmother Margaret, and was greatly shocked. "Good heavens, you're showing me this on New Year's? 😭" No matter what, I absolutely love June and Tatter arguing. Oh, you two cute things! So Alexis-chan loves Chapter 6 very, very much (By the way, Alexis-chan also super loves Chapter 9, and will consider commissioning an MV for The Rat Is Dead (ラットが死んだ) next year with tons and tons of cute Tatter content in it!! Tatter, he's so cute! 😭) At the time, did nobody think "I'm a ghost, yes, I know it's so, / And so I wonder if it's true that you can't see me, too?" fits Maximilian super well? So I commissioned this MV. Don't you think "As an android with spinning springs, / I have a voice and a head, but they're empty both." also fits the Illuminated Shepherd of the Alexis-chan universe super well? This hollow man was filled by the Immanent.

Chapter 9 spoilers ↓

I feel down at every little thing, So I think that all I need is just to have your love..." also fits Tatter super well, doesn't it? Of course, Cessate ← Transform. Alexis-chan went with the ending where Storm dies. One thing I find especially cute is... the text condemning Tatter at the court is so cute..

An error of love. Or of duty.

A heart to break

Reveal Tatterdemalion's crimes

Has it not been enough? To show you how to fall from the heights of the Moon? Has he not, in every way, charted all the ways you might fall to him? That he might fall to you? A kiss, dance, a dream. He has loved you, as much as a thing like he can love. In all things, look to the flaming heart.

Tatterdemalion does not speak, but the sigils that surround him grow a white, white heat. They are almost like wings, but the look he gives you is a fall in itself. He will not look at you thus again. Tears fall from the Eye: judgement. Perhaps it is justice, of a kind. ↑ Oh! Love! Is! So! Troublesome!

By the way, a quick question: how big do you all think the Vulgate is? If possible, I'd like some text describing all their specific appearances? Because Alexis-chan plans to modify some scenes and add a train crashing into the Vulgate. Good question, how big are they?

I have made my way through firmament all the way to procession and i need a history scarred and ragged, i have not been able to figure out how to grt that, is anyone able to assist?

Apropos of nothing: imagining Fallen London had an aftermarket bolted-on achievements system made for it (think RetroAchievements), which ones can you imagine being there?

Out of the top of my hat:

• Club 55: Get your "Connected:" qualities for all factions to level 55.
• Have It All: You have Worm, Cider, and Knighthood all at the same time.
• Ghost of Future Past: Visit all possible Futures in Irem.
• Kind to Ravens: Have all Raven Advisor varieties and all Raven agents too.
• Modern Sisyphus: Max out all qualities associated with a specific Dream.
• Name of the Game: Achieve all possible Distinctions in Mr. Heart's Game.

But I am old and dull. Can you imagine something better?

I want to do the light fingers ambition (i‘m a big horror fan) but I also want to be a monster hunter, the main stats for light fingers are shadowy and persuasive and monster hunters main stats are dangerous and watchful, will I be fine or should I go for my second ambition choice of nemesis?

gentlemen, ladies, and all other distinguished citizens of the neath, I have, for reasons most unwise, found myself in desperate need of a great many searing enigmas, and have as such found, what I believe to be, the most efficient grind for them possible, with perhaps the sole exception of buying and offering orphans to tigers, (or use of fate)

this process is quite complicated, available to mid-to-late game players who have started the Great Hellbound Railway, with multiple distinct parts, so if anyone has any way to improve any part of it (which don't require echoes or fate), than let me know.

part 1: The enigmas themselves:

contrary to most guides, we'll start with the end step, and then work backwards to see how we build up to it, for this grind our enigmas will be sourced from the University's department of Infernal Rarefactions, accessed via the following storylet and options:

Shadowy Dealings at the University --> Visit the Professor Denuntiatus of Infernal Rarefactions --> Manufacture Searing Enigmas.

This requires you to have access to the university (see here for gaining access to it), and costs 1 AP, 25 Uncanny Incunabulum and 20 CP of Connected: Benthic, to produce a variable number of Searing Enigmas, this also requires passing a Broad 200 watchful challenge (failure provides only 1 enigma) and higher watchful raises the maximum number of Searing Enigmas produced, so maximal watchful gains and equipment is recommended. see here for further information.

part 2: Uncanny Incunabulum (the most complex part of the grind)

part 2A: Newspaper publishing

To achieve the above steps, we will need to source Uncanny Incunabulum, to do this we will be using the newspaper grind, this will require having access to a newspaper (see here) for both starting a newspaper and further information on the newspaper grind itself) you will also need at least 1 of: Jericho Locks station, or a Hell-Scarred Gondolier, (see here) and here for information on each)

this will cost 1 whirring contraption, and 13 AP, during this process, choose as many of the following options as you are able:

The predator beneath, A travelogue of the Hinterlands [req: Jericho Locks station], An in-depth report on the Fourth City, Interview the Manager of the Royal Bethlehem, The Hell-Scarred Gondolier [req: The Hell-Scarred Gondolier], Something unlikely about the Home Secretary, Letters from Downside, An interview with a colourful character, Spirit photography.

if you lack 1 of the two required qualities, you will also need to to choose Do you have insufficient balderdash,

Either way, the important part is that get to the last step of the process with at least 104 outlandish copy, enabling you to choose The finest kind of madness, granting 4 Extraordinary Implications and 118 Journals of Infamy.

Journals of Infamy can be converted into Extraordinary Implications at a 50->10 ratio for 1 AP and 5 CP of Connected: Benthic, (as a bonus, this will also variably provide 100 glim, or, rarely, 2 Storm-Threnodies, see here)

Extraordinary Implications can be converted into Uncanny Incunabulum at a 25->5 ratio for 1 AP and 20 CP of Connected: Benthic, (as a bonus, this will also variably provide 200 Nevercold Brass Sliver, or, rarely, 1 Nodule of Pulsating Amber, see here)

As a further bonus, both publishing a newspaper and converting Extraordinary Implications produce making waves (5 CP from publishing, a highly variable amount from converting, see prev link)

part 2B: Whirring Contraptions

publishing papers requires Whirring Contraptions, these can be obtained through Searching out a Missing Woman at Wilmot's End, by finishing with The carpet bag, see here for accessing Wilmot's End, and here) for further information on grinding Whirring Contraptions) this gives 2 Whirring Contraptions for 11 AP, presuming you have high enough watchful and/or persuasive to pass all checks.

part 3: Connected: Benthic

Journal conversion, Implication conversion, and Incunabulum conversion, all require varying quantities of Connected: Benthic, to source this, we begin with Hunting Bees in Old Newgate, found at the university, starting this process costs 1 AP, we will want high watchful, dangerous, and Mithridacy.

One of Set an ambush or Sow carnage will always be available, depending on which side your on, these give 25 bees and will be our usual action, occasionally either Betray both sides or Commune with the bees will be available, these grant 31 and 33 bees respectively, and should be taken when they appear (assuming you can pass their checks) all of these option cost 1 AP each (see here) for further information).

Once a large enough quantity of bees are obtained, choose Send a small amount of Bees to Hell, to exchange 50 bees for 3 Muscaria Brandy, and convert all remaining bees into Foxfire Candle Stubs at 1->10 ratio for 1 AP.

Foxfire Candle Stubs can be converted into Flasks of Abominable Salts at a 1000->105 ratio, for 1 AP.

Using an Endowment of a University Fellowship, we can spend 15 Flasks of Abominable Salts and 3 AP to gain 75 CP of Connected: Benthic. (note: the Endowment of a University Fellowship can only be obtained by purchasing it from the Bazaar, however I still consider this an echo-less grind since its a one time purchase rather than a continuous need gain and spend echoes).

Addendum: The rat market

The rat market is available on Friday->Sunday, its demands change each weak, and it can accept various high value items, at no AP cost, for large quantities of rat shillings, which can be spent, at no AP cost, on tales of terror, at a 7->1 ratio, the rat market requires a once per week 3 AP cost to enter(see here) for further information).

tales of terror can be substituted for Journals of Infamy, converting to Extraordinary Implications almost identically, the primary difference being that it costs Connected: Summerset instead of Connected: Benthic.

Connected: Summerset can be acquired in an essentially identical manner as Benthic.

depending on the rat markets demand and your own inventory, this can very well be worth it.

Final AP cost analysis: conservative guesstimates ahead

The exact amount of Searing Enigmas generated at the end step is somewhat random, but lets say it averages about 4 for sake of analysis.

this whole process costs 45 CP of Connected: Benthic, (assuming you don't use the rat market) it costs 8 AP to produce 1000 Foxfire Candle Stubs, (though this becomes more efficient the fewer cycles of Bee Hunting you do, as 4 AP is spent per cycle just to enable and finish this cycle) + 1 AP to make that into 105 Flasks of Abominable Salts, which is enough for 525 CP of Connected: Benthic, slightly complicated by the fact that you can't gain Connected: Benthic this way while above 19 levels of it, though its not actually caped there, so the math should still work out, that adds 21 AP cost, bringing our current total to 30.

30 AP for 525 CP, which is enough for 11.6666... full cycles of conversion, we'll call that 11 and add 11 AP to our total for our end step, bringing us to 41 AP cost for 11 cycles.

To achieve 11 full cycles, we need 275 Uncanny Incunabulum, which requires 1375 Extraordinary Implications.

15 AP gives very rougly, 24.6 Extraordinary Implications, adding about 838.414634146 AP per 11 cycles, (again very roughly).

quickly adding in 5.5 AP per cycle to account for whirring contraptions grinding, and we get a total of 939.914634146 AP per 11 cycles.

939.914634146/11/11 brings us to 85.4467849224 per 1 cycle, 85.4467849224/4 brings us to an extremely rough 21.3616962306 per 1 Enigma, for conservation's sake lets call that 22 AP/1.

Now, this math is highly approximate, and almost assuredly I have made some glaringly obvious mistake that will embarrass me once pointed out.

its probably better to just buy orphans and give them to tigers, I haven't checked the math on that yet, however I am proud to have put this effort into this little guide, no matter how useless it actually is, and if anyone out there cares enough about this stuff as I decided to, please fell free to add corrections to my awful math, or edits to my janky methods.

I think this is my first 77 stat

There is not anything interesting hidden in the hurlers, and thus i’m not investigating it. I have not found the need for a discordant missive, and do not need one sent to me.

This is who i am, thank you for not helping me out.

genuinely why cant I marry this man 💔💔 why cant he be my spouse

and now the only place I can meet him is in exile :((((

First come first serve

I just had a thought most curious during my commute. When you think about it, aren’t there the most intriguing parallels between the Moon and Stone?

Consider it.

The Moon was made into what it is today when it, as a part of the earth, expressed a desire to be emit light all its own. Our sun, Sol, took that wish and twisted it, making the Moon come apart from the earth and making it into a great mirror to reflect Sol’s light. Now, with its wish supposedly fulfilled, the Moon bears nothing but spite and regret, tugging on the Creditor, the part of itself that was left behind, and intentionally distorting the Sun’s light, changing it from what is to what could have been.

Stone stands tall, a mountain of light hidden deep within the earth, down in the Neath. She is a part of the earth, at least now as she is, and yet even as she remains, well, Stone, she emits light that bursts forth from her and her alone. Her wish, unheard by Sol, is to split from the earth and take flight. She is almost innocent, seemingly ignorant of the callousness held by the stars she would see herself between. She bears little else but love and sorrow, both seemingly directed not in full but in large portion… to us, humans, beings that should be beneath the notice of one so high as her.

The Moon was a part of earth who wished to make light, and was cast into the stars, its wish granted and regretted. Now it casts light that is merely a spiteful echo of another’s light, and wishes to return to earth. Stone is a part of earth who does make light, and wishes to fly among the stars, her wish still nothing more than desire. Now she casts love filled light all her own, and wishes to depart from the earth. Is there not sad, beautiful irony amongst the two’s parallels? I don’t know. Twas merely a thought. But in Fallen London, it seems simple thoughts can often become so, so much more.

This counter goes up when I add something. It will be added to the section further down.

Gladiolus and phalanges Bone Brothers and Scaphoid Sisters, the time has come when the Zoomania and Fashion of the bone market have changed. That intro was fun when I first added it to the template but after 20 weeks it's wearing a little thin, like your skeleton if you don't maintain muscle mass as you age!

One week I copied and pasted the wrong link and then didn't check Reddit again until the Monday evening! If that ever happens again, all of the possible weeks are available on the Bonedex so you can always find options there!

Any Fish week is good, even Amalgamy fish, which is the worst of the three. Enthusiast in skulls and Leggy Diplomat are both pretty worthless. Weirdly, I was almost psychic again, I was in the canals but I was chartering to the Cedarwood, not Persephone.

Bone Market

https://www.reddit.com/r/fallenlondon/comments/1oikqdq/total_rework_bone_market_recipes_281025_amalgous/

There will be new Draconic Spine options and a fish week is the best week to use them!

If you are relatively new to the bone market, this guide explains Zoomania(Skeleton Species that gets extra value in any given week) and what the requirements are for each type of skeleton:

Kittens!

If you don't have a parabolan kitten, post "[your character name] wants a kitty" in the comments and I or someone else will send you one.

Missives - Notability - First City Coins

If you need a Fire-Proofed or Discordant Missive, to get your notability back up to 1 or some first city coins, post "[Your Character Name] needs…" (You can just say the thing but my preference is for more amusing things like, to learn not to play with fire, nothing, recognised and sweetie money.)

As always, if you see any mistakes, have any suggestions, spot something I might have missed or just want to say hello, leave a comment on here, or on the guide or post in question! Feel free to ask femur information if anything is confusing, by asking you help the guides improve and the whole community.

September ES - spoiler free Review(any spoilers are tagged)

Story - The Poetry of God

Lore - University, Ministry, Red Science

Rating - 3/5

Unique Practical Rewards - None

Review - A very cool little story, it never dragged or felt grindy and the characters were quirky and fun. It was not mind blowing lore but still some new ideas about how things work and what is possible.

Acabo de empezar en Fallen London aunque vengo del Sunless sea y ahora del Sunless skies, necesito y acepto con gusto contactos que quieran un compañero vigilante y honrado

A tribute to the opening steps of an unaccountable storyline.

UPD: Ugh, apparently at least two more Raven agents were discovered since this release... You know what? I will not update the preset. Nevermore! ^{...I'll see myself out.}

What changed?

• Seeing that everyone and their Aunt are breeding Ravens nowadays, I have decided to add a new preset that groups all of the Advisors (and their ULTIMATE FORM) into one convenient place. Yes, the name is a pun. No regrets.
• A bug was fixed that prevented you from unequipping anything from that special slot. We apologize for the inconvenience!

Enjoy!

Greetings, savoury comrades. This week, we have four (4) (IV) (2x2) demands. New this week, we have: Ruinous demand, buying Mortifications of a Great Power, Dreadful Surmises, and Distillations of Retribution; Inscrutable demand, buying Uncanny Incunabula, Chimerical Archives and Cartographer's Hoards; Calculating Demand, buying Vital Intelligence, paired Queen/Epaulette Mates, and Corresponding Sounders. Departing this week, we have: Intricate demand, buying Crackling Devices and Unlawful Devices.

Disclaimers:

• Some grinds may involve sourcing other materials, like Esteem of the Guild to charter a barge at Jericho Locks, Backstory for a Balmoral Cover Identity, or items to burn in Law-Forging. I will leave that to you, because there are too many options and they're too contingent on your own progress.
• All action counts are minimums, assuming endgame stats. If you do not have endgame stats, it may take longer.

My recommended grinds up front: * LB Industries (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/L._B._Industries_(Guide)) for 4th City Echoes, as well as stat training without menaces. * Law-Forging (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Law-Furnace_(Guide)) for Crackling Devices. * Moonlit Revenge for a Distillation of Retribution, some Hinterland Prosperity to cash out for Vital Intelligence, and other loot for other weeks. * Tracklayer's City (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/The_City_of_the_Tracklayers_(Guide)), cashing out Hinterland Prosperity for Vital Intelligence. * Khaganian Intrigue (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Khaganian_Intrigue_(Guide)) for Mortifications of a Great Power, Vital Intelligence, Corresponding Sounders, and Paired Mates. * Law-Hunting in the Enclave of Hell (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Law-Hunting_(Guide)) for a Causal Law and Mortifications of a Greater Power. * For variety's sake, Moulin Heist (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Money-Making/Sources#The_Heists_of_the_Wellspring_(complex)) for Chimerical Archives; Risen Burgundy (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Risen_Burgundy_(Guide)) for Chimerical Archives and Mortifications of a Great Power.

Cheap options, without leaving London:

• LB Industries (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/L._B._Industries_(Guide)) can provide 4th City Echoes, which are always sellable at the Rat Market, for 5+ actions each (11+ actions for 2 Echoes). This also comes with no menaces, making it a good way to level up stats.
• The new Secrets of Hearth and Home Intelligencier Agent Plot can give 2-3 of various goods depending on your current lodging; Storm-Threnodies if you have a Suite at the Royal Beth, Uncanny Incunabula if you're in a Spire-Emporium of the Bazaar, or Unlawful Devices from a Sanctum at the Brass Embassy.
• Crackling Devices can be had from LB Industries (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/L._B._Industries_(Guide)) for 23+ actions.
• Mortification of a Great Power can be had for 18 Exploits in Hearts' Game (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Hearts%27_Game_(Guide)).
• Mortification of a Great Power can be obtained from the Sunken Embassy (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/The_Sunken_Embassy_(Guide)) for 18+ actions.
• Dreadful Surmise can be obtained from the University Laboratory (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/University_Laboratory_(Guide)) for 2700 research by studying the Prelapsarian history of the Red Science and concluding it by translating the alphabet of hungers, reading the streets, or simply publishing your findings.
• You can make a Cartographer's Hoard in the University Laboratory (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/University_Laboratory_(Guide)) for 2700 research, either explicitly creating a hoard or studying the Prelapsarian history of the Red Science and concluding it by Dreaming of the Fourth City.
• Uncanny Incunabula can be made from upconverting Mysteries items, including Journals of Infamy from running a newspaper (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Publishing_a_Newspaper_(Guide)).
• Vital Intelligence can be obtained from the University, by Hunting Bees in Old Newgate (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Hunting_Bees_in_Old_Newgate_(Guide)), for 6+ actions each.
• Vital Intelligence can also be gotten by making a Heist (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/On_a_Heist_(Guide)) against the Circumspect Envoy's Townhouse, stealing either the scrolls about Vesture or the book on the Rosers, and delivering them to London's Ambassador. The Vesture scrolls are a better deal, since they give 2 Intelligence, but you may need the Presbyterate Passphrases or Favor in High Places you get from the Rosers book.
• Vital Intelligence and Uncanny Incunabula are rewards for some Professional Activities (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Professional_Activities_(Guide)#Rewards); this is not very efficient or available to every T3 profession, but it stays within London.
• Crackling Devices can be had from LB Industries (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/L._B._Industries_(Guide)) for 23+ actions.
• Crackling Devices can be had from Law-Forging (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Law-Furnace_(Guide)) for 6250 Actus Reus, which takes 16+ actions without burning items.

Better options afield:

• Mortification of a Great Power

  • Khaganian Intrigues (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Khaganian_Intrigue_(Guide)); 1 Mortification is the reward for recruiting an Aristocrat, Naval Officer, or Soldier, which takes 15 actions. However, who is available to recruit depends on Airs of the Khanate, so you might want to either cycle Airs or engage in other intrigues.
  • The Burgundian Beneficence 10-action carousel in Risen Burgundy (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Risen_Burgundy_(Guide)). Beware that this depends on card availability, and conflicts with the Against Time and Kings carousel you can use to get other goods.
  • Barristering at the Evenlode (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Barristering_at_Evenlode_(Guide)) for the Gondoliers; costs 20 Preserved Surface Blooms, gives 1 Mortification per 6-action grind, plus other rewards if you make the final Mithridacy check, as well as Making Waves if you choose to "Grandstand!".
  • Ending a Second City Vengeance campaign in Parabolan War (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Parabolan_War_(Guide)) by Enforcing your Demands can get you 3; I can't recommend this as a grind, but it is a neat activity.
  • Law-Hunting in the Enclave of Hell (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Law-Hunting_(Guide)) for a Causal Law gives 1 Mortification of a Greater Power, plus an Identity Uncovered.

• Dreadful Surmise

  • Making an advanced Cover Identity (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Cover_Identities_(Guide)) in your Balmoral Cabinet Noir and selling it to the Nonspecific Academic.

• Distillation of Retribution

  • Possible from milking your Hellworm (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Examine_its_contents_27), but a 1 in 33 chance.
  • Alchemy at Station VIII (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Alchemy_at_Station_VIII_(Guide)), with some 'Exhilaration from Achieving Justice', which costs 6 Bazaar Permits, 6 Blackmail Material, 6 Comprehensive Bribes, 5 Legal Documents, and 1 Parabolan Orange-Apple. This can synergize with other grinds, like Balmoral Painting for Bazaar Permits and Blackmail Material, and Barristering at the Evenlode for Bribes and Legal Documents, but there are too many options for me to give specific directions.

• Uncanny Incunabula

  • Oneiropomping (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Oneiropomp_(Guide)) for the Honey-Addled Detective, with an Intensity of 7+.
  • Calling in 4 Dock Favours at Jericho Locks (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Call_in_Favours_at_Jericho_Locks) gets 2 Incunabula and 2 Knobs of Scintillack.
  • Also in Jericho Locks, chartering a barge to the Eversmoulder (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Canal_Cruising_in_Jericho_Locks_(Guide)) can get 2-3 Incunabula, plus a Primaeval Hint and ~18 Moves in the Great Game.
  • Correcting a Verse of Counter-Creed in Burrow-Infra-Mump can convert 1 Verse of Counter-Creed to 1 Incunabulum and 1 Sworn Statement.
  • Cracking open a crate from the Khanate at Wolfstack Docks has a 1 in 10 chance of giving 3 Incunabula.

• Chimerical Archive

  • Moulin/Parabola/Heist (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Money-Making/Sources#The_Heists_of_the_Wellspring_(complex))- Once you get Para-Archaeologist up to 8, you can take an expedition to the Wellspring of Moulin, and get 4 Flasks of Waswood Wellspring Water. You can then go back to your Parabolan Base-Camp, and Search Parabola for the location of a particular treasure. You can then go back to the Flit and undertake a heist against the Hiding Place of a Particular Item to get a Chimerical Archive.
  • Handy trick for greater profit: You can take an expedition to get Flasks at any time, so if you reach the cave shortly before Viric Fades, you can get 4 Flasks, and then after Viric Fades bathe in the waters and get 4 more, for a total of 8 Flasks on 1 expedition.
  • Also in Moulin, you can Acquire a collection of books; converting 5x12.5E items to one 62.5E item doesn't seem profitable to me, but maybe you can source those items easily.
  • The 10-action Against Time and Kings carousel in Risen Burgundy (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Risen_Burgundy_(Guide)). Beware that this depends on card availability, and conflicts with the Burgundian Beneficence carousel you can use to get other items.
  • (E: Thanks to /u/divideby00) 1 per run to The Stacks (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/The_Stacks_(Guide)) after Encyclopedia Nicatoridae. Also gives Mysteries of the Elder Continent and Nicatorean Relics, which can be used in writing Moulin Monographs.

• Cartographer's Hoard

  • You can assemble one (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Put_together_a_Cartographer%27s_Hoard), either from a Salt Steppe Atlas or "A Return to Terra Firma" in Wolfstack Docks; requires 1 Salt Steppe Atlas, 5 Puzzling Maps, 25 Partial Maps, 5 Vitreous Almanacs, 25 Glass Gazettes, and 25 Zee Legs.

• Vital Intelligence

  • Tracklayer's City (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/The_City_of_the_Tracklayers_(Guide)#Cashing_Out_Hinterland_Prosperity) if you've completed the GHR; spend 1050 Hinterland Prosperity on the card "Imports and Exports" to get 1 Vital Intelligence. The price is reduced by Hinterland Efficiency, and is further reduced by 50 if the TLC is outside Balmoral, so at minimum this costs 700 HP. This synergizes conveniently with other Hinterlands activities that give HP in addition to the reward, such as Barristering at the Evenlode or Moulin Expeditions.
  • Deciphering mail (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Deciphering_(Guide)) in Balmoral with a Cabinet Noir; has a 40% chance of being Blackmail Material instead, though.
  • Khaganian Intrigue (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Khaganian_Intrigue_(Guide)); collecting the Intercepted Cablegrams you need for intrigues also provides 1 Vital Intelligence, and some opportunities for intrigue once you have 20 Strength of Your Network give 1-6 VI per 12-action intrigue.

• Corresponding Sounder

  • Khaganian Intrigue (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Khaganian_Intrigue_(Guide)); can only be obtained through a 77-action intrigue. This can be accelerated by up to 30 actions if you have the correct items for your Intrigue setup, but that is not reliable or cost-efficient.

• Paired Mates

  • The Chessboard (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/The_Chessboard_(Guide)) is the only really reliable source for Mates; everything else relies on favours, cards, or chance. Use other methods, then finish pairs here.
  • Khaganian Intrigue (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Khaganian_Intrigue_(Guide)); Tapping a Telegraph Cable gives either a Queen or an Epaulette Mate in addition to the Cablegrams and Vital Intelligence.
  • Assemble a dossier (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Assemble_a_dossier) at the conclusion of Machinations of the Masters gives 1 Epaulette Mate, 1 Vital Intelligence, and 1 Blackmail Material. Only available if you chose No Gods, No Masters.
  • Calling in 4 Great Game Favours at Jericho Locks (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Call_in_Favours_at_Jericho_Locks) gives 1 Queen Mate as well as 2 Vienna Openings.

• Unlawful Devices

  • Expeditions into the Moulin Wastes to the Upper Layer (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Moulin_Expeditions_(Guide)), 1 per expedition. Depending on how far you choose to go, this may take 20 actions per Device.
  • With some luck, you can get up to 4 from the High Sancta (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/The_High_Sancta_(Guide)). This is restricted to once per Time, the Healer, and the options available for you to pick from are randomly selected, so it's a poor grind for anything in particular, but it's still quite profitable.
  • Calling in 4 Revolutionary Favours at Jericho Locks (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Call_in_Favours_at_Jericho_Locks) gets 2 Unlawful Devices, plus 2 Bombazine Scraps.

• Crackling Devices

  • 1 per run to The Stacks (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/The_Stacks_(Guide)) after The Book of Proper Speech. The Ratwork Mechanisms you also get can be used or sold in Risen Burgundy or Queeneater's Castle.
  • 1 from Against Time and Kings carousel in Risen Burgundy (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Risen_Burgundy_(Guide)). Beware that this depends on card availability, and conflicts with the Burgundian Beneficence carousel you can use to get other items.
  • Khaganian Intrigue (https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Khaganian_Intrigue_(Guide)); 1 from recruiting a Repentant Thief, from commissioning a Crackling Device for 60 Khaganian Coinage and 3000 Nevercold Brass, or from buying one at Midnight Market for 130 Khaganian Coinage.
    • This synergizes with the Bone Market because Carved Balls of Stygian Ivory from the Author of Gothic Tales can be sold at the Midnight Market, and the Trifling Diplomat pays for skeletons in Khaganian Coinage.

In addition to the usual dataset update, I also fixed a small bug that sometimes duplicated quirk information already mentioned in the branch text (kudos to /u/emily_aversartrix for reporting this!)

If you want to support further development on this and other extensions... Well, there is a Ko-Fi for that.

Enjoy!
