Discordant Studies (Storylet)
This page contains information about the Deeper Discordant Studies, which are designated by FBG to require strict spoiler protection. Proceed below at your own risk. |
Game Instructions: This will unlock deeper options to study the Discordance. It is not necessary to complete the Great Hellbound Railway. If you pursue these studies, you will lose points in many skills, beginning with Mithridacy. You will not always be warned. Progress may be expensive. Some puzzles will require thinking outside what the text directly instructs you to do. The Stewards of the Discordance would say: Do not do this.
