EXCEPTIONAL STORY: FLINT PART I, KNIFE OR CANDLE Messages in this topic - RSS

My friends, I have an embarrassing question... can anyone educate me regarding the significance of the Knapt? That is, why were we to retrieve it in the first place?

[spoiler]I kept it in the final choice, because I subconsciously assumed it must be of some importance, but the fact that my character seems most pleased about the fact that they have remained armed along with the "sinister" response from the bishop imply that I've probably been a bit inadvertently naughty. Oh well. I'm most pleased with the "reward" you get for this choice out of the three.[/spoiler]

Sara, you got two of one from one, and one of two from the other.


Whoops, missed this response. Thank you for the correction! Now that you mention it I do remember getting two of them, not just one.

Aww man, I accidentally missed questioning about Bishop's family since I didn't realize I would lose my chance if I asked something else :'D(I had forgotten I already asked everything)

I guess no way to reset storyline until its available for everyone?(or before part 2?) <_< I kinda regret my choices :'D

There's no way to reset it yet, but here is the text you missed.

The 2 echo grind was patched by the powers that be, so it now costs 2 actions.
Thanks to that, I've now gone ahead and completed the story, looking at the quality requirements for Part 2, I've noticed that "A Quiet Woman" is one of the valid deputies. Does anyone know who that is, or how you get it? I certainly don't remember it as an option.

I'm pretty confident that it is something available to you if you complete the Knapt half of the story in a particular way before choosing your deputy. Specifically:


[spoiler]
If you save the Bishop's sister from the factory I think she becomes the quiet woman.
[/spoiler]


Annoyingly, I made my choice very slightly before that point. Still kicking myself, slightly.

She's known as the Seared Snuffer on your companions as done per the spoilered text. We'll be able to confirm this other title in about 10 days when part 2 goes live.

Darn, I read halfway down page 5 and spent quite a while calculating out whether there's any better way to get the Mysteries of the Elder Continent. If it was still one action to convert them to Passphrases, doing 21 loops of the sequence metasynthie devised would have been slightly more profitable. The first 20 loops each accumulate 25 Relics of the Third City extra, so at the 21st loop you would end up with 500 Relics ready and save around 45 actions. As far as I can tell that would have brought the overall profitability up from 1.75 to 1.76 EPA.

Sadly balance reigns supreme.

[spoiler]I saved the Bishop's sister and then went to select a deputy and the Quiet Woman was not an option. Perhaps there's another requirement? Or you need to rescue her before selecting any crew.[/spoiler]

The quiet woman is not the [spoiler]quiet deviless (FNORD!) [/spoiler] either. At least, not in the recruitment storylet.
Or maybe there will be another choice in part 2.

And could it be related to wax-wind?
Probably not https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candle_snuffer though.

Did anyone get any Rare Successes on attacking [spoiler]the Patroness[/spoiler]? The standard fail/success results really don't seem to warrant such a high difficulty!

They like the wax. According to a certain passage uncovered when researching a certain idol, they sometimes break open beehives, like honey badgers.

What does the bishop give you if you escape with the Knapt?

So, anyone else excited for tomorrow’s arrival of Flint Part II? I’m feeling it’s going to be epic, in both size and ambition. I was particularly excited by the comments that it will be the biggest piece of new content Fallen London has seen and Alexis’s admission that, paraphrase, he went nuts, unparaphrase.

Also, on one of the enduring mysteries from Flint Part I, I wondered if
[spoiler] the Quiet Woman deputy may only become available later on in the adventure, perhaps after your present deputy has copped it. I hope not – I don’t want to lose my Music-Hall Singer in the Elder Continent![/spoiler]

Since search isn't so great, I'll just ask. I haven't headed south yet, but was wondering if you still need to worry about Making Waves if you do. I'd hate to lose notability while out of continent.
