Or so a bird told us poor souls. Can we get a tiny official confirmation here? It will count as a Christmas miracle!

"Other advanced professions are also receiving a little love in the ambition updates."
I am extremely here for this.

To be clear, "advanced professions" almost certainly refers to the existing Tier 4 professions. Failbetter said a couple of weeks ago in a Q&A that they have no plans to add the next tier anytime soon.

All in all, the announcement has set us grinding and planning again.
I sincerely hope the Camp opens up a new area with its own little storylets - the opportunity, however limited, to explore Parabola. I was a bit dissapointed by how the Dilmun club required extensive grinds and in the end only opened four brief options to trade favor for goods. Useful as these might be, they are not story.
Of course Parabola has been explored in many ES so I guess there is plenty of content to use, however I am sure that arranging it in a new zee-like area is no small feat. Fingers crossed we get something substantial!

I think that with the exception of the Dream Quality, everything else is grindable. I had managed to acquire 100 Direful Reflections even without Arbor, but now it should be even easier. Of course, a direct grind would be even more welcome; I don't expect the culmination of the Ambitions to be easy, but I doubt they would make it so that it would take a year to experience the new content.

"We may change a great deal about the Base Camp option. It's been hanging around for years, and what we want it to do now has little to do with what we planned for it then."
I just realized that since all the Ambitions are pointing towards Parabola for the final chapter, chances are we'll all need a Parabolan Base Camp. 
What we planned for it then was probably the next profession tier above Glassman. What we want it to do now is probably going to be tied to the Ambitions.
It would be cool if the exact requirements differed slightly for each Ambition though. And Glassmen should get a discount or something.

Ah damnit, I had sold my supplies for it a while ago when I needed funds for my Übergoat, oh well, let's hope the new cost will be acquirable

Honeyaddict, Scarlet Saint, Paramount Presence
pleasure to meet you.
Has some ideas the Masters won't approve of like some items and establishing a Colony in Parabola.
I will accept most social interactions (not duping). I do enjoy role playing as well.
Have some possibly still active codes!
