Throw in a few references to candles and wells and that could be any Northbound street-preacher.

Fallen London is already Jack-saturated, but I like the idea of "Jack-O-Green". Is that like the "Jack-in-the-Green" of various British festivals?

No idea about that, but
Holiday, without having the Earth

sounds like a promising bit of insanity.

Turning the lower part with eight legs and attaching them with string... I'm reminded of the Silk-Clad Expert...

Ah, and it seems that Mr Eaten, or whatever local branch of him that runs these forums, has dealt with the interloper. Now we can continue to spout lunatic theories in peace. Or pieces, as it may be.

A promising clue, given the Sunlight action options:

Yes, Clathermont, you will find her. You may regret it. If you keep her from me, you may regret it more.

Call it a wild guess, but I'd bet on this tweet to be the clue too.

There was a spammer with some very entertaining randomly-generated gibberish, some of which was almost relevant.

Hs anyone considered that mirror dreams may be involved? Or the mirror marches? Just a thought.

I have just returned from the mirror marches - nothing new there that I could see, unless it comes from a new opportunity card and I was just unlucky.

To New Newgate! Where people are kept from people, and...oh, I don't know.

Beneath the stolen river makes me think it could be Flute Street. Has anyone looked there?

If we're checking Flute Street we should probably check the route there as well.

I've done it since then and didn't notice anything. I did all the regular options available down in Flute Street. I could have missed a card on the way down or something, but I don't think it's down there.

Thanks for checking! I didn't think it'd be there, but it never hurts to try. Anybody know anything about a place across the Unterzee where everything is forgiven?

With only 11, and then in short order an additional 3, people getting the Mirrorcatch box, it stands to reason that rather than being some really odd thing to do or unique configuration of equipment, perhaps it is just something that has only recently become possible to do, in addition to being somewhat obscure.

How many people have tested any interactions between their new pets and their in game counterparts? Or maybe just an extra option on a rare card or early content location, unlikely to be frequented by those with Connected the Masters, and therefore without a River in a Box? Just throwing these out, although the first hypothesis might be a little too easy given the tiny percentage of people with one.

Possibilities for the place across the Unterzee where everything is forgiven:

- Mutton Island: If anything, Mutton Island is a place where old and terrible grudges are nursed.
- The Iron Republic: I don't think this is a place of anything of constancy, never mind forgiveness.
- Bullbone Island: It's devoid of human life. Probably not here.
- Corpsecage Island: Ditto.
- Grunting Fen: Ditto.
- Grunting Fen: Ditto.
- Hunter's Keep, the Sea of Voices, Polythreme: These are at least within the realm of possibility. I don't think any of them are specifically forgiving, but they're not obviously a bad fit either. Polythreme would fit with the mention of Clay Men yesterday, too.
- The Tomb-Colonies: I think this is the most likely possibility. You don't get to them via your own ship, but one possible way of getting yourself exiled makes reference to you getting on board a ship to go there. A rare opportunity card there, or one with specific requirements to show up, would stay hidden for quite a while (especially with everyone trying to stay away during the Feast to pick up Masquing).

I have my doubts that it's a rare opportunity card, though. nothing particularly cunning about being lucky

e: seems like a 15th person got a mirrorcatch box. i wonder what we're all collectively missing
or it's something to do with day 15 of the iron republic
i can't find the spreadsheet that detailed how to get to the various days, so i dunno

I just got a river in a box after becoming re-connected to the Masters, by the way, so if you haven't got one it's apparently still possible.

Though I note that it hasn't been confirmed, has it, that a river in a box is connected ot the Mirrorcatch box?
