It’s the only other member of your crew with an interest in fish.
You need to complete the Poissonnier’s storyline; his upgraded version will happily stay with the Fathom King.
The Nacreous Survivor can be used as well.

[quote=Fredrik Pettersen]Aha, so this "Tree of Ages"-monster is unrelated? Thanks for the tip, heading to Irem immediately!
No, that’s not correct - the Fathomking got very upset when I tried to give him the Icarus in Black (the weapon built by the tittering artificer in Iron Republic that fires demon hunters). His said "We are most displeased" or words to that effect.
Also, I don’t really want to give him the Memento Mori, because that means the Tireless Mechanics questline is impossible (no Memento Mori, no Endless Dawn).[/quote]
I gave him the serpentine, he was happy with that. Dont lose the impeller!
Okay, let’s get a master-list going, shall we?
BRING ME…
[spoiler]THE HEART OF A LEGEND
known options:
-Mt Nomad (works, with major downside)
-Tree of Ages (?)
A LIGHT FROM THE SKY
known options:
-Sunlight
-?
A WILLING GUEST, TO STAY WITH ME FOREVER
known options:
-Nacreous Outcast (?)/Survivor
-Bandaged Chef-Paramount (?)
WITNESS OF AN ELDEST’S END
known options:
-the First Curator
-the Principles
THE FRUIT OF AN ETERNAL TREE
known options:
-from Irem
-from the Uttershroom
A MIRACLE OF TECHNOLOGY
known options:
-The Serpentine
-Memento Mori
-Fulgent Impeller
A few further spoilers, to discuss a few things discussed earlier in this thread that are outdated / wrong.
ETERNAL FRUIT
-Solacefruit are not from an eternal tree.
-As is usually the case, getting something from Irem tends to be fast but expensive, and getting things from the Uttershroom is relatively cheap but takes a lot of zailing.
-Blemmigans are NOT the fruit of the Uttershroom. Nor is a Ray-Drenched Cinder. Something else, however, is.
-The Uttershroom is NOT the only source of Cosmogone. However, the other source will take a lot of monkey business.
-With proper propagation, you can get a second reward from the Uttershroom. Not sure about a third.
A MIRACLE OF TECHNOLOGY
-The Fulgent Impeller can now be built without selling the Memento Mori to a very specific buyer. It’s still bloody expensive, though.
-A captain who had the Memento Mori can pass it on via the Rival legacy - even if they’d sold or otherwise gotten rid of it before retiring. This also means that a captain who inherits a Memento Mori can build a second, and use the spare here or sell it.
-Under certain circumstances, you CAN re-buy the Serpentine.[/spoiler]
Couple questions, too!
-Can anyone actually confirm that they have fought and killed the Tree of Ages, got a ‘heart’ from it, and used it for the Heart of a Legend? Or is this just speculated? Personally, I’ve never had a chance to fight the bloody thing.
(mild spoilers for officer quests)
-Are there any other officers who’d willingly go to the Fathomking - say, one who wants to die or retire to exile? I’ll work on checking that myself, but in the meantime, can anyone confirm/deny?
For a light from the sky, try a mountain sherd
It works, and he really loves it.

I can confirm that neither the sigil ridden navigator nor the presbetyrate adventuress will stay.
Very frustrating bug associated with this ambition and a philosopher past. I returned to London with the necessary endgame, erm, materials and went through the forced story options. Yay! I win. While choosing my successor, the Gazeteer suddenly pops up with the endgame story options active again. Because I had already completed it, I no longer had the necessary materials. I could not close the Gazeteer (it’s a forced interaction that cannot be avoided). All I could do was choose the non-win option, at which point the game saved and dumped me back to London with the "retire" ambition now activated. Such a bummer. Such a HUGE bummer.
thanks for letting me know the other option - now for the bonus question… where do i find our bandaged cook? the jonah story wasn’t opened for me in my current run thru. in the past, he’s still popped up at vanderbilt, but this time round i can’t seem to find him anywhere. i’m wondering if there are some conditions to finding him that i stumbled across by accident before and am missing now. any ideas?
Try a visit to Demeaux with some terror.
Homer - hahaha, I had the same thing. Very amusing. I got it by taking my father as the officer with my legacy.
Harbourlady, I think the funging company, tea with the factor, or it will pop on a few of the “explore venderbight” options.
indeed it did! thanks for the tip - my captain is now hopeful that finding her fathers bones is a possible reality instead of the vague dream she’s been feeling just outside of her grasp.
