The Humble Jade Fragment: Your Ticket to All Things Sparkly (and Slightly Creepy) in Fallen London
Ah, the Jade Fragment. A curious little item in the vast, gaslamp-lit world of Fallen London. On the surface, it's just a shard of fossilized... well, something. Let's just say it involves bygone souls and leave it at that. But for the discerning Fallen Londoner (that's you!), these fragments are a gateway to a whole host of delights (and possibly some minor existential dread).

So, how does one get their hands on these sparkly soul bits?
Fear not, intrepid adventurer! There are several paths to jade-fragmentation glory. Here's a rundown of your options:
Tip: Pause if your attention drifts.
The Refined Buyer: Head on down to the Bazaar. They've got everything, even questionable trinkets made of possibly-sentient fossils. This option is reliable, but it'll set you back a few precious echoes. Be warned: The Bazaar is a fickle beast, so prices might fluctuate wilder than a crazed zubmarine captain on a bender.
The Friend of Felines (and the Duchess): The Duchess of Parks has a... shall we say, unique fondness for cats. If you can manage to snag some jade fragments and sprinkle them on some kitty collars (don't worry, the cats seem to enjoy it), the Duchess might just reward you with some purr-fectly delightful secrets. Bonus points: This option is a good way to grind for "Memories of Light" too, which are basically bottled nostalgia (buyer beware, nostalgia can be a real drag).
The Shadowy Social Climber: Cultivate your reputation in the shadowy side of London and unlock the "Working for the Gracious Widow" storylet. This lets you grind for jade fragments, though it's a bit on the… morally ambiguous side. Hey, in Fallen London, desperate times call for desperate measures (and possibly questionable employers).
The Scholarly Spelunker: Feeling adventurous? Head over to the "Geology of Winewound" and start digging! There's a chance you'll unearth some jade fragments amongst the… other delightful things buried beneath the earth. Word to the wise: This option takes time and might leave you a tad dusty (and possibly slightly irradiated).
But Wait, There's More!
The wonders of jade fragments don't stop there! These little fossilized soul shards can be used for a variety of things, from unlocking new storylets to crafting dubious trinkets. Just be sure you know what you're getting yourself into before you start bartering with those fragments. Remember, sentient fossils can be picky about their new owners.
Tip: Don’t skip the details — they matter.
