As above, we're selling to [[The Exiled Antiquarian (Monograph)|The Exiled Antiquarian]], but in this case we're prioritising the {{IL|Memory of Distant Shores}} payout for up-conversion into {{IL|Collated Research}}. If you have {{IL|Favours: Hell}} to burn and don't want to wait around for card draws, writing about [[Write about the Expulsion of Roses|The Expulsion of Roses]] lets you fold 4 echoes into starting the monograph. For the purposes of grinding, use [[Write a history of Arbor|The History of Arbor]] or [[Investigate the Fourth City's decline|The Fourth City's Decline]] as your topic. | As above, we're selling to [[The Exiled Antiquarian (Monograph)|The Exiled Antiquarian]], but in this case we're prioritising the {{IL|Memory of Distant Shores}} payout for up-conversion into {{IL|Collated Research}}.

[[The Diabolical Propagandist]] is the best source of {{IL|Infernal Contract|Appearance=Infernal Contracts}} in the game, bar none. This is primarily only notable for Shepherds of Souls, but who knows what other uses may crop up? With this, it may even be reasonable to [[Unleash Baseborn & Fowlingpiece]] to deal with {{IL|Suspicion}} (or perhaps that's a stretch). | [[The Diabolical Propagandist]] is the best source of {{IL|Infernal Contract|Appearance=Infernal Contracts}} in the game, bar none.
