What's the easiest late-game way to snag some quick Maniac's Prayers?

Because I go through Manic Prayers relatively quickly due to Renown conversions, I buy Primordial Shrieks in bulks of 500 from the Bazaar and convert them into 105 Manic Prayers.

Holden - when I needed many of these, I changed my connected pet to the Tomb Colonist's version to increase my chances of getting favors. Grind for favors and exchange them for Primordial Shrieks in the Forgotten Corner. Given the decreased frequency of Tomb Colony favors compared to other factions, I did this concurrently with other goals.

Although it's less efficient, increasing your Scholar of the Correspondence at the University also gives 10 Maniac's Prayers each time. It's costly, but if you want to gun for that Courier's Footprint anyways, it may be worthwhile.

In the fate-locked conversation with the Wry Functionary, I seem to have gotten caught in a content cul-de-sac, where I can cycle between talking about romance, my work as a Crooked-Cross, and the Admiralty, but nothing else? Once in a blue moon the Airs of London let me switch topics to the Duchess, but only for one click, then it kicks me back to the work-romance-admiralty dead-end. Is there any way to break out and explore the massive list of other subjects I sometimes see on the mouse-over flags, or have I just screwed up this bit of content for good?

You can always quit seeking, right up until you're quite literally knocking at the door.
But can you return afterwards? Or should I just zero out my UP if I don't want to continue for a while?
You can return to Seeking afterwards, but if you use A Bad End, all your progress will be wiped. If you plan on coming back to seeking, I'd recommend doing what you said: zeroing out your UP and not touching it for however long you please.

I have visited the Iron Republic months ago and kept a journal as a memoir. Is there any reason to visit as a non Seeker again?

Well, since 777 is far too absurd for my tastes (as in, patently unachievable within a reasonable timeframe unless some exploit comes around), looks like I can free myself of this useless pursuit at least.

Not a quick answer really, but I use a second-level Labyrinth of Tigers carousel, each step of which may grant you a number of Shrieks to stash and convert then to Prayers.
Doing the math it's about a bit less efficient than just doing the Unfinished Business in Ladybones Road option, unfortunately.
