4.18: Second Citadel--The Silvered Secrets (Part 2)

Silvershore's clock tower breaks out from the skyline of beehive apartments and exploding tree-monsters, a constant declaration to the most fundamental truth of Silvershore itself: advertising. Because the clock tower isn't just a historically important building; it is also the headquarters of Wayward East Press, the largest entertainment company in an entertainment city. The offices are near-impossible to break into... unless you happen to know a lot of secret information about how the WEP runs their business. Enter the mysterious Lam, a book thief who seems to know a lot of secret information about a lot of secret things. His bag of tricks opens the door for he and Olala to enter these offices and rob them blind... but does he know enough to get them back out again? Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your stay. Check out our new Tik Tok @thepenumbrapodcast for details of our merch giveaway!
