I forget (or rather did not really know):
In spoiler tags, please, what ARE genuine Rubbery Lumps made of?
I gazed into the Mirrors at Mrs Plenty’s Carnival in order to get to Parabola, and get the 40 Renown Great Game item. I have Memories of light aplenty on me. Why was I sent into a place of some confusion instead?
I did go there last time, through Parabola, for the Bohemian item, but is there a reason I was automatically sent there now?

There are two different mirrors; Dream’s Mirror sends you to A State of Some Confusion, and the Mahogany-Framed Mirror sends you to the Mirror-Marches.
I always end up forgetting and sending myself to the wrong place too!
Maybe you looked through the wrong mirror. There is one that sends you to Parabola and another that sends you to a place of some confusion.
Oh God. Thank you, guys.

{It’s either people, Rubbery Men(doubtful), or just Sea Monsters but with Proper Well-Water.}

Mm…
Can’t remember where you got that first guess, but… makes sense! At least for a folk legend.
Though I hardly think there are enough ingredients in Mutton Island for that.
[spoiler]There’s no well afaik in the Carnival, so the key ingredient isn’t that, I don’t think.
My guess is that they’re Lorn Flukes on Mutton Island and Rubbery Men at the carnival.[/spoiler]
Side note: Wells don’t work on islands. The water you draw will be saline due to the close proximity to the salt water that surrounds it. It can be a problem near shorelines too. So I dunno how Mutton Island’s well would be remotely palatable, unless all those weird rituals actually do something to the water.
It’s not the rituals…
Ask yourself, why the rituals? Or, more accurately… for whose benefit or appeasement are the rituals?
Maybe Mr Eaten ate all the salt and left the water.
He’s not Mr. Drinken after all.

If I to remember correctly, the lumps at the carnival aren’t as good as the "original". As in, it is only an imitation of the fine, true Rubbery Lumps found on Mutton Island.
Thanks for the side note!

What’s going on that the Neath doesn’t have tides? If it’s only a mile underground, the moon should still have its effect.
Or is gravity a Law…I suppose it’s probably a law.
(But no one ever has trouble with their gravity in the Neath.)
What is the best source of Sudden Insights (for goat card)? And what to do with ever growing stockpiles of Storm-Threnodys and Bazaar Permits?
The Urchins card has suddenly started providing Insights for silk.
I’d save Storm-Threnodys, because when you need them you really need them. Permits you can probably sell.
>>>The Urchins card has suddenly started providing Insights for silk.
One Sudden Insight per action. With negative EpA. Its worse than chess playing.
>>>I’d save Storm-Threnodys, because when you need them you really need them.
For what exactly? Got 66 for now.

I get all my sudden insights from a combination of chess with alts, the Great Game/Church conflict card, and The Web card from the Nadir.
Once Christmas rolls around you can get a mountain of them from christmas cards. Just request the Tentacles card from other people.

I know I’ve been burning through a fair amount of them increasing Scholar of the Correspondence.
That’s aeolian screams I think, not storm threnodies.
What’s the matter with certifiable scraps? those seem incredibly hard to come by (relickers at 1 per action, 4-slot lodgings card at 3 per action - and for the best items one needs 3200? I’d assume this is some sort of lategame grind, except that it’s not grindable at all, because all sources are luck-based on cards…?

It’s a longterm goal you passively work towards as you play the game. Takes a while, but you’ll get there.
