"Let's speak of the South. Of a place of flint."



In the bright heart of the Elder Continent lies a prison built to hold a pretender-god. You'll see what lies there. But first you'll need to steal an instrument of power from the lair of the Order Vespertine. And that's the easy bit.



Flint is a special Christmas treat: a two-part, Truly Exceptional Story. Part I is coming on 29 October, and Part II will follow on 26 November.



Written by Alexis Kennedy, each part on its own is bigger than a standard Exceptional Story.



Traffic with the inscrutable Bishop of St Fiacre's; penetrate the mysteries of the Order Vespertine; and in Part II, be the first to see what lies behind the borders of the Presbyterate...



How does a two-part Exceptional Story work?



Regular subscribers will have access to the first part of the story in November. Anyone who is an Exceptional Friend in December will be able to play both parts of the story then.



This is an experiment in two-part Exceptional Stories. We think it's worth two months' subscription, but if you choose to unsubscribe for November, we'll understand.

A quick question: Is there a way I can stack up on Subscriptions all at once rather then one payment a month/ because i have a bit of extra cash right now but I'm not sure if I will later for this story.

So that there's time to infiltrate the Order Vespertine beforehand? To the Moon Leagues!

10/8/2015 So you can buy Friendship with Paypal now? I didn't know because at the beginning, it was only said it would be possible 'eventually', so I stocked up for half a year and haven't had to replenish it yet.



I'm really looking forward to this.

10/8/2015 Looks cool. Can you now buy someone else a month's Exceptional Friendship? Because that looks like a good seasonal present.

10/8/2015 Ah, I assumed that was continuing the scenario from the previous sentence. I see it now though.

Certainly a fair and generous way to handle it.
