The Kickstarter's due to launch tomorrow at 11am GMT / noon BST. My palms are sweating a little.
Here are twelve of the destinations we have in mind....
THE EMPIRE OF HANDS where soul-stealing monkey-kings rule
THE SEA OF LILIES where toad-oracles roam the fungus pads
THE SALT LIONS where sphinxes wait
THE CHELONATE where the turtle-slayers founded their home
THE NEW KHANATE with its dreaming-khan and its war trimaran
THE SEA OF AUTUMNS where the mists watch
THE PORT OF WHITHER, gateway to the Pale Wastes and the North
ADAM'S WAY, the river that flows through the Presbyterate's heart
PORT CARNELIAN, first among London's colonies
MOUNT PALMERSTON where the Burnt City awaits its plunderers
GODFALL, where St Stalactite was first recognised
THE DAWN MACHINE, which [this entry removed by order of the Admiralty]
What would you most like to visit? This will help give us a steer - if we get funded - on which destinations might go into the early beta first...

I like that picture.
I am happy to confirm that the Ascetic Monkey, who set aside his throne and his soul and swore an oath of non-violence, is a likely Mascot option.
Those of you who've played the Heart's Desire ambition may also find yourself making connections at this point. We really do lay down clues a long time in advance.

Speaking of which, will there be some sort of Mariner's lounge, just like Temple Club? I really loved the atmosphere of that place
That would be awesome! I want a place where I can hang out and drink grog. It will take away the taste of my crew. *wipes mouth*

Do you have to tempt me like this?

"Well, with so many unfinished storylets in Fallen London ( I bet 77 First City coins that even FBG members forgot some of these currently IMPOSSIBLE! stories. )..."
I highly doubt that.
use fallenlondon
create view impossible_locked_content as
select s.name, b.name
from storylet s (nolock)
join storylet_branch b (nolock) on b.sb_id = s.sb_id
join branch_requirement br (nolock) on br.b_id = b.b_id
join quality q (nolock) on q.quality_id = br.quality_id
where q.name = 'Impossible!'
They're going to have something like this readily available. It may be facetiousness, bu it comes off like assuming incompetence, which could be interpreted as rather rude.

Thanks all for the feedback! This has been so useful I'm going to port it into a KS update.

That's only eleven destinations! You can't pull the wool over my eyes!
also I'm going to have to say The Port Of Whither, for probably obvious reasons.
NOOOOOOOORTH.
