The Master of Revels is a mini-campaign in the city of Hollin. Thanks Amy, Henele, James, Nick, Tracy!
Beale the Goldenpiper, Rosy Claster, and Ulrike sneak into Hobnail prison, the secret police prison, to look for Rosy's uncle Jimmy and Urike's boss Lars. Inside they find secret police journals and memos, some seeming to incriminate the party members themselves, and they question each other accusingly. They find Jimmy being interrogated by the secret police and the Globster, which has infected the secret police and prisoners with its viral consciousness. They kill the Globster, the chief Inquisitor Alisandre, and two tontine subscribers: the secret police chief Durer and the spy master Guilder, who is also Lars.
The lich Ishild shows Beale his captive, the liar Modalye Grellen, and asks Beale to capture someone honest for his experiments with the two guards riddle.

The party discovers that Miss Miller killed Helmholtz and the Admiralty Secretary Parja, in a fight over their Anti-Banqueting Bill. They enter Miss Miller's pipe dream in the Mooncalf opium dens and Beale confronts her.
