Well, with the wondrous deal on the Sanctum at the Wicket right now coupled with the prospect of having those two Devils permanently removed from my opportunity deck, the idea of selling my soul has never been more tempting. I've checked the forums, but I cannot find any even somewhat recent topics regarding how one would go about finding their lost soul.
Could anyone here give me the avenues through which I could regain my soul, should I decide to sell it? I've heard rumors it can be regained through bundles of oddities, through use of Fate, and by something relating to the Carnival. Any insight on the recent state of things with regards to soul reclamation? Merry Sacksmas, all!

I've sold and regained my soul twice, and sold it again without regaining it (yet).
Once I got it back through a bundle of oddities (I think it was at zee), and once I paid fate.
The fate option takes a surprisingly long time, but you'll get there in the end. Just know it's not an instantaneous thing. You have to wait on cards for several different steps, IIRC. Though it was a long time ago, so I may be remembering wrong.
No, you're right, Myrto. It happened, when I paid Fate to buy my main's soul back (twice!) that I got the necessary cards quickly (within a few deck refills of when I bought it), but if you have to deal with the RNG for any reason mileage varies greatly.

A Surprise Package can contain your soul, correct? So if you wanted to sell your soul, but have a good shot of getting it back right after, you could stockpile presents from an unsigned message, and wait until selling your soul to open them all.
Considering that the chances of getting your soul back are 1/1000, you'll need to open a lot of them. I've been exchanging surprise packages with Myrto and ICountFrom0 for months and haven't seen my soul in any of those yet. I ended up getting it back multiple times from the one's public card instead.

I clicked one's public today, saw some new text I'd never seen before, and thought "oh sweet!". Then I hovered over the icon and it said "Opening a Bundle of Oddities 100".

Getting your soul back from a package is as rare as getting a blemmigan, so save some tears and don't open packages to get your soul back(because you will probably cry alot if you get your cheap soul over a cool blemmigan).
So is the starvling cat. The 200 result is shown as distinct anyways, and any number from 1 to 1000 is exactly as likely as the other. Don't fall prey to whatever the fallacy is that claims luck is transferable. It's a long shot, but no more than a blemmigan, and it's better than the other 200 result.

I've had it happen on one of my alts (albeit some time ago). You just get the "Something Eclectic" bundle instead if you have your soul and you roll a 200.

Wiwo. Almost certainly not a squid in a cunningly tailored suit. Surely.
 Care for some cider? Here's how to ask me for some. Strange pranks strongly preferred.
Care to pet a Heptagoat? Too bad. It doesn't do anything (probably).
I'm a Correspondent and would be delighted to lecture at your orphanage.
