Since playing Flint I have had the "A ticket to Apis Meet" storylet in Wolfstack Docks. So it seems I can go back there if I want, but is there any point? Is there anything to actually do there? Hoard Knob of Scintillack or Carved Ball of Stygian Ivory!!! Or read something that you may have missed. The lore there is pretty heavy and I'm left with multiple questions from finishing Flint and SMEN.

They were a pretty common thing by the 1890s, or at least they weren't any longer something to marvel at (there were cities in Africa with entirely electric-lit streets by the 1880s). I ponder more why the fact the Khanate has them is pointed out at all. Does that mean London doesn't have them, for some peculiar reason? That would be a bigger question to me. edited by Plynkes on 10/3/2018

Does dying in Fallen London give me some kind of permanent consequence/menace quality of some sort? I heard that dying in-game will prevent my character from going up to the surface. Should a rare event like that happen to the future I want to be ready for it-but at the same time theres features locked behind dying (constable renown item & something about paramount presence needing some boatman quality)?

There's no known quality that tracks died. The Boatman's Opponent quality for playing chess with the Boatman is only attainable if you die, so it's a marker, but you can die and revive without any chess.

There are a few lore bits that imply that simply being in the neath long enough prevents you from going back to the surface. Your character is stuck here until you get a cider (at least, if the sidebar snippits can be trusted and that actually works).

How do I raise Notability? The wiki says I can arrange to meet him in the Attend to Matters of Society card, but I don't see that option.
Your Lodgings -> Attend to Matters of Society! -> Use your influence to invite Slowcake's Amanuensis for a visit.
You need at least 1 Notability and enough Making Waves to move from your current Notability to the next level of Notability to play this option. If you lack either, the Amanuensis action will appear near the bottom of the action list. If you don't see it at all under Attend to Matters of Society! then send a bug report.
You can also wait for the Amanuensis card to show up in your deck, if you are a POSI it will show up eventually. edited by Lady Sapho Byron on 10/5/2018
