The hinterlands of Hell are abandoned. The lights of Balmoral are out. Moulin is aflame, the Hurlers are smouldering, ice melting into a new lake that already threatens to flood the Tracklayers' city. Steam rises from the water where the sunlight falls. How long does any of this have?

Firmament Chapter Eight has arrived! Travel deep into the Apocrypha to chase the fire that has haunted your dreams. Explore the Antipelago in search of answers long overdue. Who wears a mask that looks like a friend? And what is concealed in the tangle of your own history?

Firmament is Fallen London’s current major expansion, a main story arc that’s free to all players. It begins once you have progressed the Railway as far as Ealing Gardens, although requires more progress in the Railway as chapters progress.

As part of this chapter, you’ll unlock permanent access to a new location: Stonegift. Traverse the heights of the balmy clifftops in search of quartz, converse with ancient lizards and trace the source of the guilt that lingers amidst the light.

Continue the story of Firmament from ‘Firmament: The Stacks Leaking’, in Queeneater's Castle. If you’ve not yet begun Firmament, look for a card in London named ‘The Fire in the Looking Glass.’
