Seek her out, get in her good graces, and barter for whatever information she has on shards (or anything else that might come up, though preferably shards) - just make sure you have some information of value to offer in exchange, because hers won’t come free.
REQUIREMENT: Please write at least 3,000 words of your character looking for Vandaya and trying to wheedle information on shards out of her. This quest will require mod NPCing, and all information must be reported to Bellamy upon completion. Wordcount must be your own.

semiurge 7/5 (+ extension)REWARD: Travel expenses will be paid for/reimbursed by Bellamy.

LEMME WHISPER IN YO EAR
★★☆☆☆
( SOLO ) The Secret & the Whisperer are a deity and his Avatar, rumored to be found wherever secrets are. Shard power seemingly falls under their jurisdiction given how little is widely known. Their worshippers themselves are also under the radar, but largely found in libraries, universities, or criminal circles, and it’s best to start there. Track down worshippers in order to get information about the Secret & the Whisperer, in the hopes of eventually tracking them down to gain more information about Shards and the Drabwurld.
REQUIREMENT: This quest will require stealth and subtlety, and it comes with a CHANCE OF FAILURE as there are Seelie parties working in tandem. Please write at least 3,000 words of investigation into rumors of the Secret & the Whisperer. Information will be given OOCly upon acceptance of the quest, and all information found by your character MUST be reported back to Bellamy.
SLOTS: 1
CLAIMED BY: Loki
selfimage 7/1REWARD: Bellamy will provide two bracelets engraved with runes: the Cen rune for exposing secrets and the Dag rune to grant temporary invisibility (once a day for about fifteen minutes) in the hopes that they’ll be useful. The items may be kept regardless of success.
