Familiars can gather spoor! but nice feed, it is not so obvious, i'll try to explain this better in the next update

Spoor is the track or trail an animal leaves behind (footprints, broken vegetation, scent, droppings...) used by hunters and trackers to follow it

Thanks, really glad you're enjoying it! The washed-out background on those pages is a bug, already fixed for the next build. And yeah, the early stretches before familiars and expeditions drag a bit right now, that's on my list to give more to do. Thanks for the feedback!

It's Quicksilver + Residue. "Restless silver" is the Quicksilver, and the "old failures" are the Residue you get from botched brews. The Mirror of Rain is a red herring there, so no wonder you got stuck. I'll clean up that hint so it trips fewer people up. Good luck!
