Anything else, you need someone or something to teach the Changeling about it. Note all that acquiring a new contract requires a Changeling to learn about it somehow, unless it is a Favored Regalia Contract or Court Contract. Royal Regalia and Royal Court Contracts(assuming I was reading this right, as it says Court Contracts twice), cost 4 experiences each, or 3 in favored Regalia. Next, we learn some costs! Learning Contracts take experiences, with Common Regalia and Court Contracts taking 3 Experiences, or 2 if the Contract is a Favored Regalia. There's a brief sidebar discussing Group Beats and how Storyteller Characters interact with Beats that basically says NPC characters don't get Beats, and Group Beats allow a group to pool beats for more even advancement. Notably some Conditions will provide Beats for actions other than Resolution. They give the cases where you get beats, which are when a character fulfills an Aspiration, Resolves a Condition, Make a Failure a Dramatic Failure, Surrenders in a Fight, or takes Damage in one of your Rightmost health boxes. Okay, now to Character Advancement! We get a quick explanation of the Beat system, i.e. (I may be repeating some stuff, but, I don't quite remember where I stopped in Chapter 3, so I'm just continuing right where character creation stopped). Anyway, I don't want to go off to much on rules tinkering ideas here, but it does feel like Needles were a wasted chance for some more unique mechanics even if I think work just fine thematically and in their primary mechanical niche. It doesn't have to be a lot, but something like them having three "levels" with slightly different mechanics that can change based on things like Clarity, Icons, or resolving a Fetch. I would have loved to see Needles be something that evolve with the character. That all said? The implementation of Needles is still pretty bland. Or to put it another way, you need a needle to sew something back together. The characters' Needles are acts of will to create a true self after their old self was destroyed by their Keeper.

This is her assumed personality and way of approaching her everyday life." That doesn't really say "this is your character's innermost nature." Yes, Needle is called true self once, but the full picture the text presents is that a character's Needle is true, but constructed. "Needle is the core identity the changeling presents to the world. Needles are directly explicitly not their original true self, but an assumed self to cope with sudden agency. I think calling Needles "the characters true true self," is pretty unfair to the text.
