A New Mystery for the Candlefinder Society!

The Missing Candle is a reliably quiet pub in Veilgarden – the drinks are cheap, the food is... extant. These days it is best known as the meeting place of a very exclusive club – one that happens to include you.

The Candlefinder Society – the five greatest detectives in London – regularly meet to talk shop. Sometimes, you join forces to unravel the city’s most unusual mysteries. Today we're releasing another new case for you to solve: the Case of the Missing Moll.

Join the Banded Sleuth on a search for the Spall-Skinned Romantic's lost love: Molly, a performer at an old music-hall. The trail is cold; the evidence scant; the witnesses decidedly unhelpful. What intrigues move beneath the surface? Could this really be as simple as a single missing woman?

This case is available for free.

Getting Started

Candlefinder mysteries are episodic stories set in London, available from the midgame onwards. To unlock them:

  • Complete ‘A Name in Seven Secret Alphabets’ (raise that quality to 7)
  • Complete ‘A Name Whispered in Darkness’ (raise that quality to 7)
  • Raise your unmodified Watchful to 90 or more

If you meet those conditions, you can gain access to the Candlefinder Society by drawing a guaranteed card in London. Once started, cases must be finished before you can start another one or replay a past case. Cases can be replayed; Fate cases don’t cost anything to replay. The reward for completing a given case for the first time is more substantial.
