I've heard that SMEN had some of the best writing in Fallen London. specifically at the Altered Carnival. Now, I won't pretend that still holds true some four years later, but I'm curious as to what lays along that peculiar path of madness?
Any former seekers wish to share their bounty of damnable secrets?

Why does everyone always say he was "the only one". At least 5 people went there, myself included. Look up the Mr Eaten after party thread and get educated about how seeking really ended Talkes.
I can put my four copies of Mr Eaten's calling card on my profile mantle if it would help. There, they are up now.

I wouldn't say it necessarily had (some of) the best writing; there's far too much writing in Fallen London for me to even be able to come up with a top five or ten bits. Most disturbing writing is a whole different matter though...
Precisely why it sounds so interesting. Even if not the best, the most disturbing is still a feat. Fallen London has it's occasional creepy moments, but (perhaps because I've not yet worked through as much as all y'all have, perhaps because I haven't done any of the Fate Locked stories yet barring this month's EF content) it hasn't yet properly quenched my thirst for horror. The SMEN content, from what I've read, gives tantalizing sips though.

Shame on me for my ignorance, I shall spread it no more.
