The Masters are now known to be quite separate powers in fact Mr. Fires himself may want to delay the coming of the 6th city... Do you think he might suffer Mr. Eaten's fate?

Meanwhile, in the depths of the Bazaar, the Masters wonder among themselves whether our characters are actually the same person.

I beg to differ. When asking Mr. Wines why it made Black Wings Absinthe, he describes it as "a favor to a friend and colleague." Minor spoilers ahead
The Vake uses Black Wings Absinthe to know who is hunting it.
So, it appears to me that they at least know one another, if the Masters are Vakes wearing hoods.

All the Masters could not necessarily be the same creatures or even recruited around the same time... The Vake could even be a Mr Hearts for example.

With regards to black wing absinth, there is a reference to it in the rare success for transforming thirty bombazine into puzzle damask. From my journal: " Who's he talking to?"
Is that Mr Wines' valet?? You keep to the shadows until he's gone. '...yes, yer honour. I've got the stockings here. Twenty pairs, all just like your guv likes 'em. Mr Veils sends 'em wiv his compliments. And he'd like me to say that the last batch of Black Wings was a bit poor. Would a bit more blood help the brew along?'

Yes, but anyone can adopt a mannerism. We can't be sure who any given Master is. Without wanting to spoil Fate-locked content, there's at least one "Mr" who speaks and acts differently at different times. I'm not saying that any or all of the Masters we know aren't real, but we know so little about them - and this storyline has been all about the flaws in their façade.
