@Mr_Eaten, Did you hear anything back from the Vake by any chance?

Yes. The Vake knows your name now.

I wonder if @Mr_Eaten will actually grant my request, even in a subverted way, or if he'll wriggle out of it because he said "Name it and it is yours"; strictly speaking I can't name it, because the name is what I asked for.

Well, not sure if I'm now indebted to Mr. Eaten or not...

I recieved two DM's.

First from Mr. Eaten.

Quote:
Listen.


Second from EchoBazaar.

Quote:

I then found under my Story section

Quote:
Hearing Things...or are you? 1-Late at night, you hear sounds like washing flapping in the wind, in the endless night above the streets of Fallen London. Like the click of claws on stone.


Ha, I sure hope I don't owe Mr. Eaten a tattoo for that Razz

If you're asking for an item, Eaten tends to pay up first (though like most sunuvabitch genies, in the worst possible way). Then you equip the item and head into K&C, getting the Peckish quality, which unlocks a couple of things. And with those, you start a new quest to find Eaten's true name.

Ooohhhh, there's an actual in-game quest for it?

I think I found this Mr. Eaten quest:
Quote:
In your dreams, you hear a voice echoing hollowly each night

Why are you drawn to the Forgotten Quarter? What is it you expect to find here? This choice is locked for now.

To unlock, you need a Scholar of the Correspondence 1, Unaccountably Peckish 1, Nightmares 5, seeking Mr Eaten's Name 2.


Am I right?

From what I understand, Unaccountably Peckish is the quality that you obtain when you ask Mr. Eaten for a favor, get your item, and subsequently lose it in K&C. I haven't done so yet though, so someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

On another note, I made a slight attempt to ask Mr. Wines about Mr. Eaten, considering that he seemingly brought him up out of the blue. He responded rather tersely though, so I'm guessing that's a subject that he's not very fond of. Also, I'm sure you've all noticed this, but it seems like the Masters refer to each other as "it" instead of "him".

Many thanks to everybody who has accepted my requests for chess and listening to my vent about my nightmares. It's helped a lot!

Awww... I was hoping for specialized content, haha. Wishful thinking, I suppose Razz

Just had a conversation with Mr_Wines in which he hinted that I contact The Magazine Formerly Known as the London Magazine, but I haven't seen any cards or sidebars on that for a while. If you get one, could you please tweet it to me? Just put @Hotwing_rummm in the optional part. I'll repay with dinner or whatever.

On another note, is it just me or are there a lot of 'Surface' bronze-edged cards popping up?

I have noticed the same thing. Must be some of the new content they hinted about creating.

I'm pretty sure there's 4 new paths there, one for each stat.

Now that's one I haven't seen before!

Unaccountably Peckish is indeed the quality you get for having an item from Mr Eaten and winning in K&C. Nightmares is Nightmares, of course. Seeking Mr Eaten's Name is the quest you start to get by doing anything else which requires Unaccountably Peckish, for example the well.

I have no clue what Scholar of the Correspondence is though!

hmmm. The quality I gained from Mr. Eaten (possibly?) is Hearing Things, or Are You?. I never got the Peckish one though, do you think I'm still indebted to him/it?

When I got to stage four of my search for the Vake, I recieved this: (note, I recieved the Hearing Things quality prior to getting to stage four)

Quote:
The Naturalist is prepared to help you, and won't require a share in the reward, as long as you deliver its carcass for him to dissect. He has an idea for finding it. The Vake is cautious, but curious, and very watchful. If you can attract its interest, it should come. He'll need you to bring him some materials.


So I'm guessing I'm attracting it now Razz

Oh and Lex, thanks for listening to me bitch about my nightmares ;]

Two new possible character twitter accounts. I say "possible" because I'm not entirely sure if they're official, since no known official source has mentioned them. Nonetheless, they're more in-character than @thevake Razz

@ffgebrandt and @Mrs_Plenty.
