Selene

I was pacing in the mud at Black Pond, Fitz and I had just barely escaped the killer from Pedigree's new candy factory. Brittleteeth had pulled the bones of Owen McCleary from the pond depths and now was keeping his skull in the office. What did Brittleteeth need with the bones of an inventor?

Trapped in my own bones in Mister Pedigree’s candy factory, staring at a black skull. The name Owen McCleary repeating in my head and someone’s coming through that door.

The killer left a pile of candy wrappers and a handbill to a new candy factory on the river. A big flashy showcase for all the girls and boys. Last thing this city needs is more sugar, more distraction. The Stix are about to revolt and the division is going to tear this city in half.

My name is Masie Meyers – Curio for the Department of Curiosity. To whoever hears this, this recording will be my last, because I have been murdered...

Teddy Duncan stood in the Duncan’s Union headquarters overlooking the sunken district of The Stix, the working class neighborhood under the Lethe river. A grey late morning with a clear view out his window to the rail lines and steam cranes on the docks. Seagulls circling, the boat nets hauled with giant hooks, hoists pulling crates onto train car platforms roped down for the journey to the wareho...

In the city of Selene, as you walk the streets, if you ever see a penny in a crack in the sidewalk, walk on by without giving it a second look. Everyone knows this - why you may ask, well this this is due to the well known stuck penny curse and the sad story of a woman named Nora.

Can you see out in those streets, do you see those piles? That’s The Stix rejecting all their new baubles, the rubber tires and electric stoves, cast off vanities. We’ve built walls from that discard – blocked the bridges so that no more motorcars or no powerlines or no more Minerva’s Starlings go riding down here. We do no need it!

Unfortunately, it was not a great time on the streets of Selene,  there had been several high-profile murders throughout the city. The killer had left letters with the bodies that somehow made it to the Lantern Paper and were published. The killer, calling themselves The Rattletrap, claimed to be from the Stix and was moving uptown to kill the wealthy while taunting them. Selene - A Narrated...

Sesserin was tall and sinewy with defined muscles from his intensive fencing workouts. He maintained them in his late middle age – believed in a vigorous daily routine, built a gymnasium into a floor at Halite, and had a long steam before sliding into one of his tailored suits.

The three Duncan brothers - Teddy, Remy, and Lenny found themselves in an empty room with a dirt floor, under the main stairs just below street level. Their parents had left in the night, while the boys slept on a small, worn rug. The three of them under the age of six, huddled on a crate together in the damp cold. They had rumbling bellies and no shoes, but an empty room that was paid through the...

Across the Stye stone bridge, a crumbling bridge as old as anyone can remember, the last gaslight lamp marking the end of the city, two gents push a rickety wooden cart through the green fog for some nefarious business.

As a storm rolled into Lanula Park and covered the mansions of Park Row, a pretzel boy stood out on The widow's walk of Lavendula.

A stormy night for a reunion at Bridewell House. Madame Viola Walker is chained to the parlor table, whilst Brianna her discarded and bitter sister, hovers over her with a dirty shovel.

The Voldat sisters Viola and Vivienne (Ve Ve for short) grew up wealthy in the folds of the affluent but oft-troubled Voldat family. Young Vivienne was sent away to the asylum Ludlow, and due to her defiant nature, Vivienne was given aggressive treatments. Viola, in contrast, grew up in luxury and society and married Leopold walker and he built for her the purple house of park row, Lavendula, but...

From the other Curio reports, it sounds as if the sleepwalker activity has reduced in the city. I don't know why it started in the first place. I don't know why it has subsided, but my hunch is going forward that they will come in and flow out like a tide whenever whoever is controlling them needs to advance their plans.

I’m sorry for the restraints Mr. Goodman. I know you just want to go home, but you’ve been sick. And we need to run a few tests before we let you leave. I’m going to have them remove your gag, as long as you promise not to scream...

Millie Minerva had taken over the duties of brewing the crabapple cider from her fasting sister Mercy, the shame eater. It was sweet with a sharp tang that woke up the tongue and provided a lovely light buzz like a spring breeze. Millie’s wasn’t as quite as good as Mercy’s used to be, but only the family could tell and they couldn’t keep the bottles stocked fast enough. Selene - A Narrated Superna...

Mercy Minvera, a fasting girl, had quickly been monikered The Shame Eater for her ability to pull the shame from people and provide relief with her touch. The Minerva sisters - enterprising young girls, started selling cider, and homemade soaps to those standing in line waiting for a visit with Mercy. Any guilt about exploiting their sister's ability slowly washed away with the dreams of buying th...

The Minvera family lived in a fine two-story home, with a wraparound porch, scalloped wood trim like fish scales, a short round tower with a cone roof, and a tiny balcony off the second-story bedroom. It was an inheritance leftover from what was once the family house that looked over a great orchard, but now it sat on a small, uneven plot of land fenced in on each side over time by different neigh...

The parasites are spreading, making everyone act wild. The sleepwalkers are hunting Curios, something immolated an Overland Dust partner. There are roving clowns stealing faces, witches crawling out of music boxes, and a coal and ash man stealing children. Corruption and poisoners and now murderous sleepwalkers and something is sending wooden casks out into the city. A falling knife has no handle....

The nights in winter are longer, and colder and darker from the chill. The tracks we follow in the snow, the ones dusted into oblivion, where do they go? Who wandered out into the cold and into the nothingness of the dark? What hunts in that dark? What subverts its own safety to brave that cold?

The brownstone mansions of Park Row were impressive in their lavishness and the seeping bright colors of pinks and lavenders and shades of indigo. The Bridewell House sat at the end of the lane, trying to hide its institutional shape with strategically placed elm and red oak trees and a high, manicured hedge. The Brickwork that formed the bulk of the structure was a deep, rich red, and its thick p...
