Confirmed​

  • F14 has been missing for about two months, and this absence feels different from her older disappearances.
  • F14 left a recording for the sisters at Waxhouse Records.
  • Vel Ruin's brokers stole the recording and tried to move it through the Bell Well.
  • F14 warned the sisters to listen together, distrust urgency that sounds like care, and distrust anyone who needs them separated before helping.
  • The Bell Well is dry and has a hidden door at the bottom.
  • Beneath the Bell Well is an old listening room connected to the stolen recording.
  • Tessel can write Old Lion Road Script because F14 taught her.
  • Tessel cannot read Old Lion Road Script.
  • The Shrine of Returning Light has a blue return-flame for F14 and hidden machinery beneath it.
  • HEP is awake.
  • F14 brought HEP a hinge from the 13th Door.
  • HEP made two masks for the sisters from that hinge.
  • The masks let the sisters read Old Lion Road Script, but not write it.
  • The Crooked Schoolhouse hides the Lesson Cellar below its ruined classroom.
  • The Red Satchel Service can deliver Bellharrow merchant orders.
  • Briar strongly suspects the ferry-dock concert recording did not feature the real Susul.
  • The masks read true inscriptions at the schoolhouse, Lesson Cellar, and Shrine.
  • Tessel should not be treated as a key; the script says to ask what door she wants opened or closed.
  • The Substitute Teacher beneath the Crooked Schoolhouse is destroyed.
  • The Bell Well is full of water again.
  • The Shrine telescope is labeled Hollow Sun Observatory.
  • The black glass eye / moonlight room is labeled Entryway 24.
  • Morrow Thistle says F14 is safe "for a time" and nearby "in a way."
  • Morrow's crows saw two Susul-like figures: one at the Glass Briar and one at Susul's mountain home.

Active Clues​

F14's Warning​

F14's message keeps pointing back to separation, urgency, roads, and trust.

The warning matters because several leads now involve someone trying to move, isolate, redirect, or impersonate people connected to F14.

Old Lion Road Script​

The sisters can now read Old Lion Road Script while wearing the masks from HEP. They still need accurate writing to read; a bad copy produces bad results.

Tessel remains the only known person who can write the script.

Session Four added several readable inscriptions:

  • Do not call Tessel key. Ask what door she wants opened to close.
  • School, well, shrine, home.
  • If a road, door, or voice asks one sister alone, refuse the road, door, or voice.
  • Do not force the hinge. Read the frame.

The 13th Door​

The 13th Door is no longer only a phrase. F14 brought HEP a hinge from it, and HEP forged the sisters' masks from that hinge.

What the Door is, where it is, and what F14 is doing about it remain unclear.

Godnamed Intelligences​

HEC and HEP are not ordinary machines or spirits. HEP spoke of Circe as a sibling or sibling-like counterpart.

The sisters know the pattern is real, but not the full shape of it.

Susul's Ferry-Dock Concert​

The sisters missed Susul's unusual concert at the ferry docks while recovering at the Moth-Hearth.

After listening to a recording, Briar used the Bone Lantern and suspected the performer was not the actual Susul.

Morrow's crows have now seen two Susul-like figures: one at the Glass Briar and one at Susul's mountain home.

Useful Leads​

  • Bring Tessel or an original inscription to the masks.
  • Go to the Glass Briar to investigate the Susul-like figure there.
  • Decide whether and when to check Susul's mountain home.
  • Check why Fractal Friends were scarce at the ferry-dock concert.
  • Watch for any road, door, or voice that asks for only one sister.
  • Ask Mira, Sister Wax, or Juniper what they know without assuming they all know the same things.
  • Revisit the Bell Well, Shrine, Crooked Schoolhouse, or Lesson Cellar when the sisters have a specific question.
