The interesting thing is that Inspiration 24 is 300CP, and 34 is 595CP. So before being banished, the 34-inspiration works give double the rewards of 24-inspiration works. I find it very curious that this isn't the case here - and it also means that it's not actually wasteful to write two 24-inspiration works for 4 Fine Piece even if you only need 3 FP points, since you'd have expended the same amount of actions on the 34-inspiration work anyway.

Using this fact, we can calculate that 150 24-inspiration works are needed to reach PL20 (sum from 3 to 12, multiplied by 2). Assuming 10 inspiration per action (please correct me if this isn't accurate once you get unbanished - I still haven't been banished in the first place), and without taking into account rare successes, that's 4,500 actions. Using the 15-inspiration option that messes with your quirks (again, assuming that doesn't change after you get banished), it's 3,000 actions.

So overall, about a month's grind or so.

Do the long works still give the items ("Copy of Your ...")?

I tried out Films and didn't get anything for that, so it seems reasonable to assume that there aren't any new ones. I imagine the old options will still provide the item souvenirs.

Fashion didn't give a keepsake either. I'm working on a poem now - I'll report back if there are any new options there!

That sounds quite absurd, far worse than any other grinding (cider excluded). Well, it's for end-game so if I'm cleared with other goals I'd be after this one.

There are two new options for both poem and novel works.

Is it basically good old Symphony @ The lead? Just as SotC:10 grind but much longer.

I hope in the end there is option to spend 400 000+ moon pearls on something. Or just swim in them.

Just finished my poem and there were actually three new options - a zailing poem, an Elder Continent poem, and a poem based on my artistic school (in this case, the Nocturnals). If all the schools are included, that's seven new poems!

Not so for Symphonies, at least - the only school related option I saw there was to not be associated with any of them.

Oh, I forgot about the school options. The poem a Nocturals option, the novel had the bazaar associated school for an option. The other schools don't have an option in these works.

Do the Celestials or Mycologenes show up in any other works?

Although I don't remember in which category, I have seen both an option for the Mycologenes and for having no School, so Celestials should be somewhere

Just finished one of the new novel options, and, well, it's appropriate that it was published in the Gazette, because I am seriously treading on Mr Huffam's toes with this kind of storytelling!
