Getting Here[edit]

To get here, you must raise Stormy-Eyed to 19 and Having Recurring Dreams: What the Thunder Said to 15. This will make the storylet The Thunder Takes Me Away available anywhere in London.

HRD:WtTS can only be gained through the relevant dreams cards. See Dreams (Guide) for details. Once HRD:WtTS reaches 18 the first time, you can play the card Who is the Third That Walks Always Beside you? to gain Stormy-Eyed

Once you have Stormy-Eyed, the HRD:WtTS dream cards will have options that will raise it. Alternatively, you can grind it out at Mutton Island with I bid the wind speak once you have it. See Time Passing on Mutton Island (Guide) for full details, but it amounts to 0.76 CP/Action over 17 actions.

General[edit]

There's not too much to do in The Mind of a Long-Dead God, but most of it revolves around gaining Dangerous and Shadowy CP, or gaining Aeolian Scream while lowering your Stormy-Eyed. If you come here at exactly 19 Stormy-Eyed and you fail every action, it will take 38 actions to escape, generating 380 CP of stats in the process, or 38 screams.

Other Options[edit]

  • With Seeking Mr Eaten's Name 3, there is a foolish choice of But I am one of them on I Demand Appeasement! that lowers your stats and raises Nightmares.
  • If you wish to get out as fast as possible, I Will Ask a Friend for Help is a social action that will get -20CP Stormy-Eyed as long as you have at least Stormy-Eyed 6.
    • The fate option I will Pay the Price for 5 FATE will also quickly eject you with -50CP Stormy-Eyed, and also raise Dangerous and Shadowy by +35CP Each.
  • The Renown: Urchins 40 item can be found here in A Light to Bright the Dark.
