This is the use of memory:
For liberation - not less of love but expanding
Of love beyond desire, and so liberation
From the future as well as the past. Thus, love of a country
Begins as an attachment to our own field of action
And comes to find that action of little importance
Though never indifferent. History may be servitude,
History may be freedom. See, now they vanish,
The faces and places, with the self which, as it could, loved them,
To become renewed, transfigured, in another pattern.
Sin is Behovely, but
All shall be well, and
All manner of thing shall be well.

I have another question. Does anyone know what yearly events and holidays there are in the Neath and when they start and end?

The events and holidays. Most last around two weeks except the one just coming up. Exact dates are difficult as they change
Sackmas - The Advent Calendar (starts 1 December ends 25 December) - [time sensitive access codes via social media] and later in December Lacre (Neathy snow) falls weekly with Time the Healer and then the Twelve Days of Sackmas cards. Leading to the opening of Penstock's Wicket in January.
The Feast of the Exceptional Rose (February around Valentine's Day)
The Mayoral Election (June or July I don't remember exactly when)
The Fruits of the Zee Festival (August)
Hallowmas (end of October)

Sorry RL means I am not a very active player at the moment. No social actions unless you are prepared to wait and definitely no sparring or other mult-action things.
No Calling Cards or boxed cats please. Will take dupes on the affluent photographers. Other social invitations welcome. Parabolan Kittens usually available, send me an in-game social action saying you want one and I will get one to you as soon as possible.

If I remember rightly, the option comes up to ask a friend for one during the Cave of the Nadir quest itself. Don't know if there is way to exchange them outside of the quest.

If I am recalling correctly there are no quirk changes there. Menace cures, MW, memories of light and romantic items. I think. But you may wish to wait till someone with a fresher memory confirms.

I'm happy to accept most social actions except for lethal sparring and loitering suspiciously. Please challenge my plant! Currently not accepting calling cards.

Not sure how much I'm allowed to say, due to Fate-spoiler rules, but even though I already had a Ray-drenched Thingammybob, I didn't want to give it up and so went down the Fate route. Turns out that if you do that you get a little something extra for your trouble. Something normally only available at Sackmas.
Just sayin', in case you were considering that option.

If you have Renown: Revolutionaries 25, you can also just spend 7 Favours for a Cinder. You can only do this once, though.

Yes. I haven't been there, so I can't say for certain, but my understanding is that from an echo perspective it's unimpressive, from a lore perspective it's a lot of fun, and I have no knowledge one way or another about hedonism.
Well, no. That's not quite true. I know it's the only way to acquire certain... enhancement. Which, regardless of its effect on Hedonism, demonstrates a great deal of hedonism.

More of a random thought than anything, but what if 'all will be well' should actually be 'all will be Well?'

Let's just say that the phrase's inclusion in Fallen London probably has relatively little to do with Julian of Norwich.
(Now that said, didn't Eliot use that quote in one of his Quartets? Given the degree that Fallen London has trawled Eliot for quotes, it's entirely possible that that is the path by which the saying made its way into the game. Not that that means much; the in-game uses of such quotations [e.g. the dream qualities] are fairly independent of their origins.)

The Bazaar likes to pretend it didn't technically break its contract with Mr Eaten. Using different meanings of words is definitely legal. Definitely.

Now I'm imagining a reckoning that involves everything being underwater. ALL will be Well.

I still have two of these lingering multi-step social actions invitations that can be neither refused nor accepted. Anyone else still experiences this problem? I'm not sure if fbg is still fixing this so I should just patiently wait for the invitations to disappear, or assume they finished fixing the general problem and just overlooked these?

Either way, it's probably best to contact support just in case.
