Two New Mysteries 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 two new cases to solve: the Case of the Sealed Vault, and the Case of the Glasshouse War.
- In the Case of the Sealed Vault, join the Honey-Addled Detective in a locked-room mystery. The Sojourning Envoy, visiting from the Surface, has been attacked in the safe rooms beneath Baseborn & Fowlingpiece – while the doors were locked.
- In the Case of the Glasshouse War, help the Urchin Detective prevent an all-out conflict between the Regiment and the Fisher-Kings. Somebody has shattered the Fisher-Kings' glasshouse, and there is only one urchin gang in possession of a cannon...
The Case of the Sealed Vault is available for free, while the Case of the Glasshouse War costs 10 Fate.
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. But the reward for completing a given case for the first time is more substantial.
