Surface Ties: done with the surface

Your last connections to the surface world are gone.
[Unlocked with: Recalling the Surface: Dangerous 4, Recalling the Surface: Persuasive 4, Recalling the Surface: Shadowy 4, Recalling the Surface: Watchful 4]

A home a long way down

You are now a true, proud citizen of the Neath. You have chosen the eery beauty of stone and corpselight and black water over the gaudy world above.

What's done is done

The Neath will never really be your home. But you're here now, for good or for ill.

Some day, you'll return to the surface

The Neath! A hole in the ground with a grand name! Fallen London! The wretched corpse of the queen of cities! Dear God, you miss the sun. You'll go back one day.

Yes, yes, whatever

Surface, then, Neath, now. Honestly, who cares? There's honey here, isn't there? Silk? Velvet? Delicious people? Send hirelings to the cellar! I will have more wine!
