Way to stop Seeking

So my first alt was Seeking for a while, but then I grew too attached to his character and wanted to stop. I think it was an option on an opportunity card to do something like set a table and do something....I don't exactly remember. But I've Googled and scoured the forums and I can't find it anywhere. I'm kicking myself for not Echoing it. Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about or is this some weird Irrigo-induced memory and I actually just used A Bad End?

Main, Phiri Ulfur, the Cunning Shadow. Their heart belongs to a Pirate-Poet across the Zee.
Alt Vermillion Liminate, the Tragic Scholar.
Alt #2,Lady Jacqueline Blackwood, the Savage Beauty.
Alt #3, Veracity Taylor, the Dame of the Docks.
The Dogged Seeker, self explanatory.
I will accept any social actions on Fallen London(unless its a box of live rats. I already got rid of the d---ned things once and am not eager to repeat the endeavor).

At first, I thought that some of the Seeking qualities would screw a character over in terms of gameplay, namely cards that gunk up the deck.
Now that I know that the cards only get drawn when certain storylet options are used, I realize that I should have gotten into Seeking earlier.
The consequences are actually quite manageable gameplay-wise, and even some of the nasty things that Seekers can get (like the recent "Your Internal Organs") can be useful.
Why would you stop?
Besides, if you would put aside your fear of spoilers, you would know that there is something valuable to be gained at the end.

While I agree that seeking is not terribly painful if approached with patience and planning, it nonetheless is an expensive endeavour to do, and one of the few instances of the game where one can truly lose significant amounts of money/resources. There is not really anything to lose, mechanically, if one simply stops putting effort into furthering the story, but I can understand why someone would want to give it up for RP/Story reasons. Moreover, I applaud those who avoid spoilers and let things develop without knowing what's at the end.
