Last Berth Astral Marking Chalk

Last Berth Astral Marking Chalk is a fitted tin of dense marking sticks that leave two lines at once: pigment on matter and a colder trace in astral space. This Last Berth pattern uses scratched pewter, red service thread, and a plate stamped with emergency instructions, sold for final chances: evacuation decks, failing wards, and nights when nobody can fetch a specialist. Last Berth's marks grip painted hull, stone, fabric, and clean skin, then fade without solvent when their charge expires. Last Berth uses a careful operator can lay a boundary, direction chain, or warning glyph quickly; sweat, dust, and broken geometry still matter. With Last Berth, every stick wears down fast. With Last Berth, saving a thumb's width of chalk by leaving a weak corner is how inexpensive supplies become expensive stories. Ninth Sign asks 230 credits, including a fitted case and one calibration check; replacement consumables are extra, because apparently consequences have a subscription model; that is the Last Berth distinction.
