For a second there I thought of Raymond Chandler but then saw this art of murder isn't simple...

I look forward to the "murder mystery" (and hoping your crew will be in it Nitebrite!)

Also, the themed story thing looks great. I can't wait to get started on Flint once Sackmas has passed.

Oh, man, that'd be great - I love The Set, and would adore to see more of them. (Sorry, NB - I sided with the Poet over the Modiste despite or perhaps because of the fact that she tattooed something obscene on my trousery area.)

I did the Flint story, but I fear I did the wrong thing by surrendering the item to the person who commissioned the trip. Is there any way to reacquire it?

You may not have actually lost it. You should still have the item you'll need to combine with the others for the big seasonal story reward(s). I seem to recall the text mentioning you giving what was asked for over, but the relevant/important item stays in your inventory.

Now playing Esméralda, Saevitia's former helmswoman and moralistic Campaigner; she looks like this.
I'm usually up for RP. Social actions are generally accepted; those with in-character RP invitations are most likely to be reciprocated.

@Manu Traveler: De Quincey died in '59, so not many years before London fell. His Society should still be around.
And interested parties may read the essay here: http://readbookonline.net/readOnLine/20972/ (it is, incidentally, hilarious)

How...gauche. Think Murder in the Rue Morgue before such brute visuals.

Maybe I'm missing something. Where do we "Begin Flint" before December 31st? I've looked all around London and cannot find the start of this exceptional story.

The "Art" of Murder?
Clearly the Bellicose Prince, the horse sized grub that he is, has turned to murder most foul!

More likely the Repentant Forger, overwhelmed by turpentine fumes and unruhe from stripping so many layers away from black canvases, has devolved into homicidal mania.
Which is apparently much less illicit than forgery in London these days...

I'm thinking it involves the Professor Denunciata making some surreptitious and unsolicited modifications to someone's Ratwork Velocipede.

Dangit, I just missed the cutoff time for subscription to begin the Flint story. This month's exceptional story wasn't too bad, but I do wonder what I'm missing.

D__n, hard luck. Flint is a really great Exceptional Story, especially with its ties to Sunless Sea.
