From Fallen London Wiki
Hey lads, the text for spiralling regrets also warns you against it. Like the text here?
"You will pay with a little of the Will-Be rendered into the Might-Have-Been."

"For all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these: 'It might have been.' "
Could be coincidental but listen, I ain't taking chances and you shouldn't either
