Oh ho!
It is an easter egg.
To make a Clay Man, when making an account and asked to choose your gender - go to the lines above, there's a dash at the end of one of them. Click on the dash.
And then you can make a Clay Man!
...and the Clay Man stuff is vaguely depressing.

I am feeling utterly naive, but how on earth do I find the Shuttered Palace? I have completed Heart's Ambition through to the end of talking with the Topsy King in The Flit but I cannot find my way to the Shuttered Palace!

There should be an option and instructions on how to unlock it through your Lodgings - I believe it costs a certain amount of wine? Go to your lodgings, and check the 'Open a way to other parts of the City' section.

I feel a bit ridiculous now for not seeing that. Thank you for the help!

I did complete the Struggling Artist's storylet, but I hear if you're of mysterious and indistinct gender, you can complete both.
Does anyone know when that storylet pops up?
At the same level as the Struggling Artist one, but it's at the very bottom of the page IIRC. My character's a woman, and was able to complete both storylets.

So. What's this about Seeking Mr. Eatens name?

Interesting development... I picked up a mysterious benefactor while I was crazy.

Can anyone tell me if they have An Agent of the Cheesemonger at above 15? If so, do you remember how you unlocked the card for 16? If not, ah well, I suppose I'll wait for new content.

I've capped Agent of the Cheesemonger at 15. Last time I heard from her, I was trying to divine a bit about her past using my charm, but that failed. It said she appeared to be crying. Not a word since.
Anyway.
I've maxed out my stats once more and gone through all the new content like a wood chipper. I'm now interested in Seeking Mr. Eaten's Name. Those who have begun have probably explained it before and will likely roll their glassies at my neophytic inquiry, but how does one begin? I'm at Unaccountably Peckish level 3 and have started the Death by Water recurring dreams (at level 3 currently). Is it gained through K & C? I gleaned the general idea from previous posts but wasn't sure if that's the only way it's accomplished.

New card at the University!
"Shadowy dealings at the University"
I just barely noticed this one. Positive I hadn't seen it before. The professor of anatomy wants 5 (!) leathery human hearts. I only have the one from my last meeting with Jack of Smiles. Thoughts?

You can meet him more than once. I have three leathery human hearts.
Just play the "defend the Clay Men against Jack-of-Smiles" storylet again.

Damn. My level is too high, even with every bit of Dangerous quality lowering item I can get my hands on.

Even if you wear a ridiculous hat?

Ridiculous Hat, Bottled Oblivion, anything. I'm at level 100 on every stat. I didn't know you would need multiple hearts to get any good out of them. Been a loooong time since Ladybones.
