{{Fruit Festival}}
{{Wiki Note|Fruits of the Zee was completely reworked in 2023 (1899 (3)). For the version of the festival in previous years, see [[Fruits of the Zee Festival (Guide) (Old)]].}}

The Fruits of the Zee is an annual festival taking place in the first weeks of September on [[Mutton Island]]. The main focus is diving for treasures and exchanging those for rewards, but it's also an opportunity to see some sights, obtain unique items, and discover your [[:Category:Destiny|Destiny]].

== Getting to the Festival ==
First head to {{IL|Wolfstack Docks}}. If you do not have Wolfstack unlocked, you can [[Pay the urchin in secrets]] with {{IL|Moon-Pearl|10 x}}s on [[Visit the Fruits of the Zee festival!]] to take you there.

From Wolfstack Docks, if you do not yet have a ship of your own, you may [[Catch a ferry to the Fruits of the Zee festival]] for {{Il|Moon-Pearl|10 x}} and 5 Actions to get to Mutton Island. From Mutton Island you can [[Catch the ferry back to London]] to return at any time. 

If you have a [[Ship]] already, the ferry will not take you. Fortunately taking your own ship is faster.

Upon arrival, play through the options on [[Mutton Island, Barren]] to find out why the festival is not underway. This unlocks the festival storylets, including [[A Fruits of the Zee Primer]].

==Going Diving (Week 1)==

The main activity of the first week is building up {{IL|Fivefold Devotion}}, which lets you dive for treasure to trade in the next week.

===[[Supplication on the Shore]]===

Before you can dive for treasure you first need to build up {{IL|Fivefold Devotion}}. A minimum of 5 is required in order to go diving, but more lets you dive deeper and longer, obtaining better treasures. The maximum Devotion you can have 11, which is enough to guarantee you can reach the very bottom.

Each option on [[Supplication on the Shore]] gives 4 CP of Devotion, and some economy resources which scale off Base Watchful, paying between 0.5 and 4.0 Echoes worth per action. As {{IL|Fivefold Devotion}} is a pyramidal quality, reaching the minimum level of 5 takes 15 CP and 4 actions, and reaching the maximum level of 11 takes 66 CP and 17 actions.

===Wreck-Diving===
{{FotZ Economy|category=no}}
After obtaining at least 5 {{IL|Fivefold Devotion}} you can dive from [[The Fishing Boats, Empty]]. When diving you draw from a deck of cards, which let you either pick a treasure, or if nothing strikes your fancy, attempt to dive deeper. Succeed and you'll descend a level, while failure will end your dive and provide some Menace increases. Diving itself only takes 2 actions, 1 to leave the boat, and 1 to claim your treasure. Diving deeper is free.

On average, the lower you go, the more valuable the treasure you can obtain. Reaching the bottom reveals a special storylet, [[Her Fivefold Symmetry]], which foregoes an item reward for the Accomplishment {{IL|Discovered: the Pentamerous Bride}}. The Bride can be visited up to five times, each time raising the hidden quality {{IL|Audiences with the Bride}} which affects the text for each visit. No other uses for any level of {{IL|Audiences with the Bride|appearance=Audiences}} have been discovered yet, but the Discovered quality opens the opportunity for [[Ask about the mind at the bottom of the trench|unique text]] and a [[Accept a briny gift|unique item]] from the King-in-Coral during Week 2.

Treasures comes in three types: 
#Pure economy treasure, which can only be traded for {{IL|Thalassic Favour}}
#Items from Fruits past, duplicates of which can also be traded for {{IL|Thalassic Favour}}
#Treasures that you can trade for new items in the second week

You can only claim an item reward from one card per dive. Diving deeper gives a greater reward when claiming {{IL|Thalassic Favour}}, which appears to be obtained most efficiently by diving deeper with more {{IL|Fivefold Devotion}}. When diving for equipment items or coral for equipment trades, it is likely best to begin with 5 {{IL|Fivefold Devotion}} until you have obtained all desired items at the starting depth, as diving deeper may not help you to obtain these.

====Strategy====
<!-- OLD STRATEGY NOTE
If you're specifically looking for something at Depth 5 (e.g. {{IL|Scrimshander Carving Knife}}) and thus will bypass 300 Favour items at Depths 3-4, you'll see a greater return going for Devotion 10's better odds of getting to Depth 5. However, this would likely be a late-week option, as earlier you might find what you're seeking with an optimal Devotion 9 dive, and simply striking out on 300 favour items at Depths 3-4.
-->
Whether you're looking for echoes in general or Thalassic Favour specifically, the strategy while diving is always the same. However, the amount of {{IL|Fivefold Devotion}} to aim for depends on your goal. For grinding echoes, it's best to raise devotion to 10 as long as the actions spent building devotion are giving you at least {{e}}1.27 per action. If you're getting less than this or if you're only looking to grind Thalassic Favour specifically, you should build devotion to 9 instead.

Then, while diving, the optimal strategy is to keep diving until you find a card worth 300 Thalassic Favour or more, or you reach the bottom, at which point you take the highest-valued card. The cards to look out for are:
*{{IL|Full Fathom Five}} 1 - Just dive deeper.
*{{IL|Full Fathom Five}} 2 - Just dive deeper.
*{{IL|Full Fathom Five}} 3 - Take in this order:
**[[Well-Disguised Trinkets]] (300 Favour, 30% chance)
**Otherwise Dive Deeper.
*{{IL|Full Fathom Five}} 4 - Take in this order:
**[[A Cabin-Fragment]] or [[Easy Pickings]] or [[Well-Disguised Trinkets]] (300 Favour, 71% chance)
**Otherwise Dive Deeper
*{{IL|Full Fathom Five}} 5 - Take in this order:
**[[A Cabin-Fragment]] or [[A Shattered Prow]] (400 Favour, 53% chance)
**[[Easy Pickings]] or [[Well-Disguised Trinkets]] (300 Favour, 30% chance)
**[[Tangled in the Rigging]] (200 Favour, 8% chance)
**[[Unlucky Prisoner]] (175 Favour, 5% chance)

For completeness, the tables below list average Thalassic Favour, (TF), Thalassic Favour per action (TFPA), echoes and EPA for various strategies and devotions. The strategies are either diving to a specific depth (labelled 1 - 5) and taking the best option there, or diving deeper until you find a card worth a certain minimal value (labelled "Take 200" and "Take 300"). All numbers assume menaces will be cleared at 3 CP per action after the event and the echo values assume that each action to generate devotion gains you its maximum of {{e}}4 of items ([[Construct toy boats to scuttle on the reef]] or [[Gather flotsam for the King-in-Coral]] or [[Assist in the preparation of a well-rite]], with a base stat of 201+), and that each point of Thalassic Favour is worth {{e}}0.1. The highest values per action are outlined in bold in each table, corresponding to the strategy described above.

*{{IL|A Scrimshander Carving Knife}} allows you to [[Carve away some evidence of age]], removing {{IL|Skeleton: Antiquity}}

==Week 2 (Trading)==
The main activity in the second week of is trading in your treasures to buy items.

First, you'll have to progress through the story for the Festival to properly begin in game. Once your [[A Fruitless Harvest]] quality is high enough, three storylets will initially unlock: [[The Fruits of the Zee Festival, Restored!]], [[The Fruit Market]], and [[Fruits for the Starved]].

===An Audience with the King-in-Coral===
While attending the restored festival, you can [[Seek out the King-in-Coral]] to meet the Fathomking, unlocking an additional festival storylet. In [[An Audience with the King-in-Coral]] you can trade in the various corals available while diving, breaking them open to get a random variant of the corresponding item. If you visited the {{IL|Discovered: the Pentamerous Bride|Appearance=Pentamerous Bride}}, you can also get the {{IL|Weeping Litter-Cyst}}, a new Transport item.

Here you can also spend {{FontFate}} for the [[The King-in-Coral's Hoard|various items]] available at the Festival over the years. Many of these items are also available for free via diving, trading {{IL|Thalassic Favour}}, or breaking open coral. Others, primarily older items with fewer uses, are only available here. See the [[Fruits of the Zee Festival (Guide)/Item Comparison|Item Comparison]] page for item analysis.

===The Fruit Market=== 
In the Fruit Market, you can trade in your treasures gained from diving for {{IL|Thalassic Favour}} with the locals. You can then spend the {{IL|Thalassic Favour}} on a variety of equipment items. See the [[Fruits of the Zee Festival (Guide)/Item Comparison|Item Comparison]] page for item analysis.

====Treasure-Trading====
Trading treasures will give you {{IL|Thalassic Favour}}, used to buy items from the other stalls. You cannot trade away your final piece of each equipment, but saving items is not recommended: Treasures and duplicate equipment items will vanish once the event ends.

The tables below show how much Favour each piece of treasure and equipment is worth.

====Wrecked Shipment====
If you claim a wrecked shipment, you will get a random item based on {{IL|Sights at the Festival}}, as listed in the table below. As the {{IL|Sights at the Festival}} changes upon purchasing, you cannot manipulate the results by doing other festival activities. Without considering rare successes, on average this should get you {{e}}9.4 for 95 favour, or ~ {{e}}0.10/favour, double what you will get if you let them expire, but slightly less than what you get from purchasing {{IL|Sample of Lacreous Affection}}, {{IL|Vestige of a Starlit Reverie}}, {{IL|Oneiric Pearl}} and {{IL|Baited Riddle}}, which are guaranteed {{e}}0.1 per favour (see table above). Rare rewards, as well as the potential to sell {{IL|Uncanny Incunabulum}} and {{IL|Storm-Threnody}} at the rat market can increase the value of the shipments above this, if you're feeling lucky.

====The Green-Gilled Shipwright's Lot====
If you have a Ship, you can purchase any of the Festival Ships here in exchange for your current ship and {{IL|Thalassic Favour}}. Players with {{IL|The Cladery Heart}} must first store it in dock for their other ship.

The exact cost varies from 500 - 1920 {{IL|Thalassic Favour}}, depending on what class of ship you owned before and what class of ship you are trying to purchase. The {{IL|Rusty Tramp Steamer}} is least valuable and receives the smallest discount, while the {{IL|Swift Zee-Clipper}} receives a moderate discount. The {{IL|Zubmarine}}, {{IL|Majestic Pleasure Yacht}}, and all Festival ships receive the highest discount, bringing every Festival ship's price down to 500 Favour.

The table below lists the ships available for purchase and their closest Non-Festival counterparts.

===Destiny===
As with most festivals, you have the opportunity to reset your current destiny for free. You can only do it for free once per festival, otherwise it will cost fate. The storylet for this is [[Accept an invitation from the Drownies: Reprise]]

===Sights of the Festival===
Outside of spending {{IL|Thalassic Favour}}, you can also take the time to see the sights of the festival. The rewards of these items scale with your modified stats. This likely never exceeds 4 EPA.

==Menaces==
While on Mutton Island, {{IL|Wounds}} and {{IL|Nightmares}} will not send you to {{IL|a slow boat passing a dark beach on a silent river}}, {{IL|the Mirror-Marches}}, or {{IL|A state of some confusion}}. These storylets will autofire as soon as you return to London. In the second week,  {{IL|Wounds}} 8 and {{IL|Nightmares}} 8 instead trigger [[Over-Indulgence]] and [[An Unusual Interlude]] respectively. These drop your {{IL|Dangerous}} + {{IL|Shadowy}} and {{IL|Watchful}} + {{IL|Persuasive}} respectively, by CP equal to their base level, and send you back to London.

==How much Thalassic Favour do I need?==
Ships cost no more than {{IL|Thalassic Favour|2000 x}}, less if you have a ship to trade in.
Items previously available for free in previous years of the festival will not cost more than {{IL|Thalassic Favour|2000 x}} in total.

Several new items do not require any {{IL|Thalassic Favour}}. The four types of coral found while diving can be traded for unique items; each type trades for one of three equivalent equipment items. In addition, diving to the bottom and gaining the Accomplishment {{IL|Discovered: the Pentamerous Bride}} unlocks a special item in the second week.

==Alternative Source of Thalassic Favour==
The below method still works in 2024, however {{IL|Skull in Coral|Appearance=Skulls in Coral}} will be limited to 10 turn ins, rendering it of limited efficacy.

An alternative source of Favour is {{IL|Jericho Locks}}, where you can cruise the canals [[Canal Cruising in Jericho Locks (Guide)|(Guide)]] in order to get {{IL|Skull in Coral|Appearance=Skulls in Coral}} to trade in for Favour.

For 37.5{{e}} of items and 3.5 actions, you can [[Charter a barge to the Persephone|visit the Persephone]] for an average of {{IL|Skull in Coral|Appearance=Skulls in Coral|1.5 x}}, plus 21.25{{e}} of {{IL|Unprovenanced Artefact}}s and some {{IL|Fin Bones, Collected}} and {{IL|Moonlight Scales}}. As skulls are worth 125 Favour each, this yields a total of 53.57 Favour/Action, a return of 11.54 Favour/{{e}}.

{{IL|Crooked-Cross}}es can also do this more cheaply at the cost of speed, spending 30{{e}} and 5 actions.

Notably, this grind can be combined with diving by using a specific option to raise {{IL|Fivefold Devotion}}. [[Gather flotsam for the King-in-Coral]] gives {{IL|Memory of Distant Shores|Appearance=Memories of Distant Shores}}, which can be turned in 40 at a time along with {{IL|Sworn Statement|2 x}}. Alternatively, the memories can be converted into {{IL|Collated Research}} and turned in 10 at a time.

==End of the Festival==
At the end of the festival, any Treasures you still have beyond one copy of each piece of equipment and your {{IL|Skull in Coral|Appearance=Skulls in Coral}} will be be converted into {{IL|Memory of Distant Shores}} at a rate of 10 {{IL|Thalassic Favour}} to 1 Memory, giving Thalassic Favour a value of 0.05{{e}}.
