Patch Notes

The Lore wiki migrated as well! The Fifth City Wiki. The Fandom version of that one is still active.

OK I think I figured it out, I skimmed instead of read and that never works around here. The patch notes name the Lore Wiki specifically, whose fandom version hasn’t been deep-6’d yet. The Help page links to both wikis several times, but I saw a gameplay link first and stopped skimming.

offered the chance to immediately restart a Plot

Where is this option? I don’t think I’ve ever seen it!

it only comes up for the recursive plots—infiltrating and pushing the limits of morphology

Ah, darn, thanks. I was hoping it meant I’d missed a quick “just go back out on the same plot” button for any plot.

Week Ending 4th September 2026

  • ‘Perhaps not’ is no longer an option to leave the ‘Prepare Your Heist’ storylet.
  • Firmament
    • Fixed mismatch between requirements and costs in ‘Attempt to duplicate and shrink Procession’s vast ribs’.
    • You can now break down a skeleton made with a Draconic Spine.
    • To prevent sequencing issues, the Chthonosophy cap raises can now be performed in either order.
    • Tweaked erroneously set additive checks in 'The Thunder Gathers’ and ‘Redder Favour’.
    • Tightened up some branch requirements in ‘Redder Favour’.
    • It is now no longer possible to open the Roof map while in the Temple of Procession (since you can’t fly until you return to your moorings anyway).
    • Leaving Procession via Parabolan means correctly removes temporary resources.
    • Due to entirely reasonable complaints, vast quantities of Sausage About Which No One Complains are no longer required to ‘Dine with your Officers’.
    • Added a little extra instructional text to guide players to the Bonefolder after an unhappy first exit from the Marrow.
    • Made the reasoning behind certain officers being unavailable in ‘A Last Chance’ clearer & more visible.
    • Summer – that scamp! – will no longer reappear in a handful of places if she is absent from the crew.

The irony. Must the item change description?

Week Ending 11th September 2026

  • When you ‘observe the end of a season’ in Hearts’ Game, the quality ‘Hearts’ Game: A Brief Pause’ is now reset to 0 along with the rest.
  • The branch titled merely ‘Compromising Document’ has been reworded to ‘Weave in eyebrow-raising information’ at ‘The Writer’s Desk: Rework!’
  • Agents now consistently rely on their own Accoutrements when performing skill checks.
  • The Plot ‘An Opportunity for Dissection’ can now give out a much larger (but variable) amount of Monstrous Anatomy.
  • ‘Leaving Mutton Island’ has been retitled ‘Put to Zee!’ to match the departure storylets for other islands on the Unterzee.
  • Updated the ‘Favour in High Places’ instructional text to clarify that ‘A Polite Invitation’ is found via the Opportunity Deck.
  • Firmament
    • Speaking to Summer will no longer prevent you from speaking to St Valentine’s Day, and vice versa, in ‘The View from the Gallery’.
    • Cards from the Mirror-Marches no longer appear in Storm’s Eye.
    • When you are searching for the ‘Annals of Lost Stars’ in the Stacks, removed a stray mention of the Shepherd if he is not on the crew.
    • The Corpse Miscreated is less profitable. It’s the White’s fault. It never ends well.
    • ‘Consider your ship, and perhaps how you might obtain another’ is now locked after you obtain ‘A Crew, Honoured For Services Beyond the Call of Valour’.
