Station Unlocked | First Paragraph |
---|---|
(None) | You sit at your desk and read secrets taken from the correspondences of princes. |
Unknown | You sit at your desk and read a detailed analysis of smuggling and shipping between the Surface and the Neath, so far as your spies can tell. |
Jericho Locks - Magistracy of the Evenlode | You sit at your desk and read news from your Surface spies in Venice: they can find no evidence that the Gondoliers of Jericho can claim a true descent from there. |
Balmoral | You sit at your desk and read your Surface spies' opinion of your new acquaintances at Balmoral. |
Station VIII | You sit at your desk and read an acute analysis of political affairs in South America, and a few lines on Cuba as well; they are more and more a part of the Game. |
Burrow-Infra-Mump | You sit at your desk and read an assessment of the principal religious powers on the Surface, and how they might react to doings in Burrow, should they come to hear of it. One of your agents went so far as to ask […] The response is certainly wordy. |
Moulin | You sit at your desk and read an account – somewhat patched together – of the First City prior to its fall. It was once famed for its position at the crossroads of trade. |
The Hurlers - Marigold | You sit at your desk and read collated secrets from the desks of princes and industrialists, cabinets and committees. |

Airs | Second Paragraph |
---|---|
3 - 19 | You received a note from the Foreign Office today, asking whether you'd like to dress up as the Vake for a celebration to be held on their roof. Apparently it is a tradition. |
22 - 39 | The Gazette reports that an archaeological expedition has uncovered a disused Fourth City workshop in the Forgotten Quarter, which appears to have been 'recently squatted by industrial interlopers'. |
41 - 58 | The Gazette prints an open letter of complaint to Thyrsus Wines, on the grounds that the Black Wings Absinthe purchased from that establishment has gone off, and that it no longer has the flavour to which the drinker had become accustomed. |
62 - 79 | A report in the Gazette: Mr Veils' shops and warehouses are believed to be under new management. The results are generally deemed disappointing. |
86 - 88 | Last night you heard a rumour that Mr Veils had been seen walking in the city, but, on inspection, it turned out to be a Rubbery Man in robes. |
90 - 100 | The Gazette reports on an accident in one of Mr Fires' workshops, which left a number of workers with serious burns. |
