You obtain "Something awaits you" Qualities while sailing through the Zee for a set period of time. This quality can be used to obtain storylets. Watch your journal, because when you obtain "Something Awaits You", a message will show up on your log. Some storylets will consume this quality, while others will not. How which storylets are picked is not yet well understood. Theory: There are many different types of SAY. When you get a message, the game rolls for which type of SAY you get, with different messages for each.

Messages are not unique, but can overlap each other. You can only have 1 x "Something Awaits You" at a time, however. If you have SAY, it will show up in your journal.

Also, this explains why you can't do hunters keep or mutton island and get your terror reduced to 50 at FL. You actually need to spend time away from the area to get it.

Some storylets have unique constraints on their usage. You cannot, for example, string two Port Cecil: Chess Games in a row.

When you dock, the game rolls for whatever Storylet you get. Some are rarer than others. Others are very common. In additions, rewards can vary.

Fallen London should just reduce the terror to 50 whenever you get into port, having it depend on "Something awaits you" messes up your mutton island or hunter's keep rotations.
