Hurlers

Good day all, would greatly appreciate if I might receive a discordant missive.

I too would appreciate a discordant missive if anyone could send me one. Happy to reciprocate with letters of all sorts.

Migrating this post so it doesn’t get buried:

For those seeking Discordant missives: I’m happy to send them to anyone and in any quantity. In return, I’d like to receive any and all skill-boosting letter types: bad word, coded instructions, case notes, better word, or scone recipes. Send me a calling card and introduce yourself if you’re interested in trading letters.

Looking for a missive. Will trade most types of social actions in exchange.

Edit: I’ve gotten my discordant missive but will gladly give out discordant missives for any other types. If anyone here is a correspondent, then I would gladly receive a flame-proof missive in exchange for any other type of missive. I can send any type of missive except disquieting missives, coded instructions, flame-proof missives (obviously, or I wouldn’t be asking for them), or hungry letters.

Also, how do I keep raising my steward quality? I’ve meditated with the anchoress and studied every principle, even the 0th principle, but I’m still only halfway to level 6.

Does “meditating with the Anchoress on Discordant Law” has an option with no law active, like Caprine Vagabond?

Need me some Flame-Proof Missives, I’ve got to the point where I need 15 SotC, and this seems like a more resource light way of arc welding my eyeball goo to my skull.

Gotta say, for all the materials and actions you have to pour into this… the discordant laws with their associated ripple cards go a long way towards making up for it. Assuming you play them for free on zero actions, the average earnings are pretty fantastic, especially considering you keep drawing them in perpetuity as long as you keep a law in place. It’ll still take a while to turn a profit on the whole venture, but… we should eventually get there, and then some.

I apparently misused my discordant missive, and as such need a new one.
if anyone is so inclined, I’d be happy to return the favor once my SoTD reaches 5.

That cannot be arranged, just don’t send me your calling card ;P

I’ve broken seals 5, 6 and 7, but I’ve just can’t seem to get number 8 into my head.

Should I be miscounting the stones in the castle or somewhere else?

Either method should do for you, in castle probably easier?

Agh, I’m stuck. I’ve read this whole thread and as far as I can tell, I’ve followed all the advice for others stuck at this point and I Just. Can’t. Get it.

I’ve completed seals 2-8 and I’m trying to get 1. I’ve meditated on the lower principles and used up the Impossible Theorem, meditated with the Anchoress and died (twice! I thought maybe that would help somehow), gone back to the Hurlers, left the Hurlers to see if that sets the count for the Lower Circle to 0, refreshed my page, gone back to the Castle and looked everywhere for new options, and nothing is doing it. Any additional guidance on how on earth I get the Number That’s Not In My Head to 1??

The thing you did twice? You need to do it three times.

Yeah, it’s important to notice when you’re actually repeating the same thing and when it’s different each time you do it.

OH! Thank you! I noticed the wording was different the second time, but never thought that meant a third was needed. Thanks so much!

Can someone echo the result of returning the note to Lapidary?

Bit late to the party, but having…

[spoiler]Second Seal to Eight Seal at 2, Crystalline Knowledge 10, Sunken 4, but Risen only at 3 means I missed…what exactly?

Lower Circle inside the Adulterine Castle is fine, but considering the Upper Circle only lets me do miscounts of 1 to 3. Finished the Attar trip, the one with the Doubled Skull and the Night Whisper move. But something is missing.

Any ideas?[/spoiler]

You are missing one of the numbers, which seems to be 1. Meeting the Anchoress with the complete Lower circle will allow you to remove counting the Lower Circle and set it to 0, which then makes it possible to get Number That’s Not In Your Head of 1 and then unlock the First Seal with Nightmares of 1 the same way you’ve done the others.

  1. Enter the Upper castle through any seal one more time - it’ll set Risen to 4. Won’t help, but for the sake of completeness.
  2. Go to Anchoress - she can set circles to 0. I assume the cat already killed you twice.

Thank you both! Looks like re-entering through the lake was a good idea (instead of slipping from Parabola), now we´re making progress…
