magic ink
Martha
I need some special magic ink to write down the dark spells, I had a bottle, but a bat came in through the window and stole it away. I can't imagine why a bat would need it, but...
You got the ink back from the bats! I was looking through my crystal ball... that looked like a lot of work.
-
Book Page
Martha
I need parchment paper to make the pages. Because of the energy of the spell, regular paper burns up very quickly.
Lovely! You found so much parchment. Enough to make two books.
-
Pipes with engravings
Valerie
The leprechaun that came to us seems to have dropped his belongings around town. I wonder if he'll be our friend if we return his belongings to him? He was last seen at the game console. Let's see if the leprechaun lost anything.
What a beautiful carved pipe! Look at this carving. I bet the leprechaun is very upset about losing this. Let's give it back to him!
-
Science of Energy
Bao
One of the greatest ancient Chinese inventions that changed the world is the magnetic compass. Add a Feng Shui directional magnetic needle to your collection.
You brought a feng shui directional magnetic needle. You need this if you want to improve the chi of your residence. Of course, it also helps if you get lost in the woods!
-
A Warrior's Friend
Bao
Speaking of great Chinese inventions that have changed the world, we cannot forget "gunpowder. It is an object that has played a very important role in the history of the world. Look for "gunpowder" and add it to your collection.
It's a vessel filled with "gunpowder." It is also the world's first explosive device. It is the greatest invention. But sometimes I think it might have been better if this had never existed in the world.
-
Secret Vision
Bao
Thank you. You are going to collect an ancient Chinese invention that changed the world. First, you need to find the "crystal glasses". That would be a great item for this collection.
Colored glasses were made for court cases. They are to keep criminals from seeing the judge when he hears the verdict. Valerie told me that they are now used to protect the eyes from the light of day.
-
There's your hat!
Valerie
Leprechauns haven't been in this city very long. That's why no one has caught them yet! Poor guys, they're so scared and careless, they're always losing something. If you look around there, I bet you'll find something.
Yes, this is a leprechaun hat! You must have dropped it when you ran away from the treasure hunters. I don't want the gold. I'd love to see a real leprechaun. Shouldn't we give this hat back to him?
-
green shoes
Cardsharp
Like all leprechauns, our mysterious friend is very shy. So we need to set a cunning trap. Leprechauns are known to be fashionable and wear nice shoes. We need to find some cool shoes that the leprechauns won't be able to resist. They will come out and try them on. That's where we'll catch them.
They are better than yours! And these shoes have such soft leather and a lovely emerald color. No self-respecting leprechaun could resist. You've thought of the perfect trap. Now the wish will soon be mine...or sorry, ours.
-
Second Chance
Detective
I put all the cursed coins in a box except the one Juliette was holding! I tried to rip the chain with the coins on it off Juliette's neck, but when she tried to run away, the coins went flying. Look for it!
You found the coin medal! Okay, let's break the curse! Juliette, just a little more patience... okay, I put the last coin in the box.
-
Golden Calling
Detective
Put the spider coins in the magic box and you may be able to free Juliette from the curse. Let's find the box. Will you help me? Otherwise, she may never escape the curse...
Let's dust it off first... this box seems to be the right one. The runes on the box are the same as those on the scroll. Let's go back to where we left the coins and put them in this box. But don't touch it with your hand! Okay, now we have sealed 12 of the 13 coins.
-
Traps for Leprechauns
Cardsharp
Legend has it that if you capture a leprechaun, he will grant you three wishes in exchange for your freedom. Let's work together to catch the leprechaun and share the reward. For that, we'll need a big bug net.
Wonderful! With this net, you can catch a leprechaun that will give you what you want. All I ask of you is one thing. My friend, all I need is your help.
-
Hidden Treasures
Cardsharp
Friends, have you heard these rumors lately? Leprechauns have been spotted in town. How would you like to join us on our treasure hunt? If you are lucky enough to find a leprechaun's shovel, you will get the treasure too.
Wow, that's a leprechaun's shovel! Where did you find it? These money-grubbers never hide their gold far from home. I mean, they live close by.
-
Smile of Steel
Detective
The lady hunter seems convinced that it was a werewolf who broke into Julie's bedroom, but the intruder didn't do anything. Those monsters would normally go on to do terrible things. You need more evidence, buddy. Look hard, in fact, it may be right around the corner.
Is this guy wearing dentures? I would say that the thug who broke into Julie's room is an old toothless man, but this jaw is made of steel. And these fangs aren't even human.
-
What you see
Huntress
My friend, my hunting instincts led me to you. My instincts are never wrong. Look, there's something on the shelf! It will tell us who broke into Juliette's room.
My friend, you are the best buddy I've ever had. A brooch in the shape of the Eye of the Wolf. For a moment, I saw the reflection of the full moon on this stone. I see it! It's the werewolf we're after.
-
Dangerous Colors
Abbot Paku
We are about to find out what it is that keeps the treasure hunter's soul here. Our search so far has led us to a cave where the treasure is hidden and where we have discovered a stunningly beautiful crystal with the help of peacock stone powder. I will try to find out if this crystal is cursed or not. Would you like to find my ethereal one-glass?
You have found a pair of yugenic single-piece glasses. Did you know? When you use this one-glass, you see the colors of different curses. According to it, this crystal is protected by the most powerful curse. Anyone who touches this crystal should be forever bound to it!
-
Secret Treasury
Abbot Paku
This looks like a secret treasury. These places were once protected by a curse to prevent thieves from entering. Have treasure hunters been cursed by some kind of jewelry? Try this method to find the cursed object. Bring the peacock stone powder.
Thank you for helping me find the peacockstone powder. Peacock stone has a protective effect and can neutralize negative energy. Peacockstone powder is attracted to places where bad energy is present. Look, look...the powder has gathered around the giant crystal.
-
Fog Protection
Abbot Paku
At all costs, the treasure hunter's soul must be found and freed. Perhaps something that put a curse on him still remains in this mine. To protect ourselves from it, we need the help of fog! Fortunately, I have brought a little with me. Bring the capsule of fog that is in your backpack.
This capsule contains a mist taken from a sacred spring in a misty oasis. Spray this protective mist right in front of us and we will be protected from the curse for several hours. There is no time to hesitate. Open the capsule now.
-
ethereal rhythm
Abbot Paku
The treasure hunter seems to have fallen under some kind of curse. It is probably the reason his soul is trapped in the crystal mine. I would like to help him somehow. Let's use the magic systrum to find his soul in the mine. Will you search for it with me?
Thank you for finding the magic cistrum. Please take this in your hand. It should make a sound when a soul comes near it. It seems to react when you move in this direction...which means we have to go to the back of the cave over there!
-
Prisoners of the Underground
Abbot Paku
Thank you for your cooperation. Actually, the soul of a treasure hunter is trapped underground in the mine. Something is holding it together in the mine and it is unable to leave it and go to its resting place. To help this poor treasure hunter, let us first look for the amulet that belongs to him. The fog tells us that we should do so.
So you found the treasure hunter's amulet! You have found the first clue as to why his soul is trapped in the mine. This is the amulet of protection. Do you see the scorch mark on the back? This indicates that a very powerful curse was placed on the treasure hunter that even this amulet could not overcome.
-
Dangerous Treasures
Detective
Buddy, I hear that voice again. 'Having stolen one of the immortality coins from the sorcerer, I am doomed to find the rest. There will be no peace until I find it."...If the curse brought Juliet here, the rest of the coin must be here too. Let's find them!
You found the coin! Maybe you can save Juliette from the fate of wandering forever in the dark. No one deserves to suffer such a cruel fate...especially Juliette. Let's put a coin here. Cover it with something and let's keep it here as a shrine.
-
Ancient Magic
Detective
Juliette seems to have entered this secret passageway. If we follow the trail left in the dust, maybe we can find out what happened. Oops, looks like she kicked something. It rolled off into the corner... is that a scroll? Buddy, can you get it for me?
What a strange scroll... the writing on it is something I've never seen before, but when I try to read it, I hear a voice in my head. 'I, the keeper of this place, am tormented by eternal greed by the curse of the thirteen spider coins'... what does this mean?
-
empty room
Detective
What is this place? It looks like a deserted secret room. Dusty in places, not so dusty in others... looks like it was inhabited until recently. Juliette? Hey, look at that. There's a sparkly thing next to a footprint in the dust! It's stuck in the crack and I can't get it off... buddy, give me a hand here, will you?
This is Juliette's favorite pendant! You said it was given to you by your parents. Hey, the chain is broken. Most of it's gone... but isn't it weird? Are you saying that Juliette tore the chain off herself and took the teddy bear part with her, discarding the teddy bear part?
-
Amulet of Fortune
Detective
Poor Julie, I've been having anxiety nightmares lately. I bet this badge I can catch that rascal! What'd you find, buddy? Let's look for the next clue.
That's awesome! "Wolf's Tail"? Hmm. I used to have one of these things as a good luck charm. So, from this clue, the monster or whatever it was that came to Julie's room was a less-than-confident one?
-
Traces of the beast
Juliette
Dear friend, thank you for helping the detective. I see you are in pursuit of the culprit! I won't sleep easy until they're caught. Oh, something just flashed ominously! Look, what is it? I'm scared...
It's a pendant with animal footprints engraved on it. I don't believe these are cat footprints. Dear friend, was it a big monster in my room?
-
having an appetite like a wolf
Detective
Whoever broke into Julie's room left no clues. But I'm not giving up so easily. Come on, let's look for clues. Maybe the perp dropped something on his way out. Would you look for it? That would tell us something.
Found a "chewed up shoe." It's a man's shoe. Damn, was it a man who entered Julie's room? Who was that rascal? And what kind of beast would chew up a shoe?
-
Lying crows
Martha
Hmmm, the gift box says "My Lady"? I wonder if the ...... mistress had the title of Lady? Interesting. Could you bring my lovely talking raven and I'll ask her about the canopy.
You've found the talking crow. This crow has the black magic of gossiping and stealing. The box Juliette opened is very dangerous, so I'm going to use her to find out.
-
Snake tie-backs
Martha
Anything else I don't know about the contents of the gift box? I've already removed and examined the canopy. Next, let's examine the tie-backs. I'm sure there are some new surprises hidden in there.
Just as I thought. This snake tie-back is definitely a luxury item! I wonder who sent such a unique and unique favorite. As far as I'm concerned, it's something I'd like to keep at a distance.
-
Canopy holdback
Martha
The strange gift box Juliette received contained a piece of a curtain made of cobwebs hanging from the canopy. I'm sure there's a piece of caten hardware, a hold-back, somewhere in there too.
A spider in the canopy holdback, you say? It must be from the mistress's bedroom. Who else would be a lover of cobwebs, except the mistress? Who in the world would have sent this to her?
-
Cobweb Curtains
Martha
Let's take a closer look at the contents of the box Juliette opened. Well, what the heck is this? It looks like something wrapped in a spider's web. Can you bring it to me?
Interesting that the curtains are made of real spider webs. They must be part of the curtains hanging from the canopy. Look at that.
-
Strange Flowers
Martha
From the strange box Juliette received, I heard a whispering voice... and this black rose... can you bring it over here, and I'll see what they are talking about.
I see, this black rose doesn't want to talk to me. I am sure they are speaking a language I cannot hear. The only thing that is clear is that this rose is a manifestation of loyalty, and the black color reflects the soul of the sender.
-
Ice Stability
Inspector
Icy is right. If you're going to fight the enemy, you have to know their strategies. If you think as if you were them, you'll know it. I've always wondered. I always wondered why the "Snow Queen" never slides on the ice. Maybe she has special shoes? You'll have to look for them.
Well, the "Snow Queen" used to bite these "crocheted boots" into the ice to prevent slipping! No doubt she would have used magic too.
-
Words of Steel
Lady
It's such a shame that Adeline's research on Di Fiori's paintings will never be documented! She certainly has a warrior's rebellious spirit to go along with her amazing talent. Like Lord Byron! Look for "Byron's Steel Feathers."
The steel feather pen used by Lord Byron should help Martha create a feather of genius for Adeline! Now the journalist can complete the documentation about the painting!
-
The Perfect Letter
Mei
Adeline is an experienced reporter, but she doesn't seem to have much patience. That's why the city won't let her document her research on the Di Fiori paintings. Look for "Brushstrokes." It will help you develop patience.
This oriental brush is from a famous philosopher. Martha must know how to use it to complete the feathers of Adeline's genius.
-
unethical writer
Adeline Svensson
I hear you found "Dante's Pen" and "Khayyam's Callum"? Oh, how I would love to touch "Shakespeare's quill." No devil could erase the words written by such a genius's pen. I want to hold Shakespeare's quill, help me!
This feather belonged in the hands of Shakespeare, the greatest playwright in the history of mankind. I hope you will entrust it to me. It will be my talisman and trophy in writing!
-
immortal morality
Juliette
Adeline wants to document the Di Fiori painting case in detail. But the city won't let her do it! Martha intends to fix this by creating a "genius quill pen." I've seen Dante's beautiful pen made of Venetian glass! Can you help me find it?
Dante's book and its morals make sense today. With his glass wings, what Adeline wrote to document her research on the masterpiece will never go away!
-
Cradle of civilization
Martha
Adeline would like to do a series of articles on the lost masterpiece of Giovanni di Fiori, but I guess the city doesn't want to share its secrets. She'd have to write it using a special "quill of genius" to keep her words from fading away. But to make that, you need the famous genius writing pen. Look for Umar Khayyam's kalam.
The great work of Kharam of Khayyam was a truly enduring document in human history. Kalam would be the ideal base for Adeline to create the feathers of her genius.
-
The path indicated by the rays of light
Kira Woodville
I hope the cave with the magic well is not flooded...which way should we go next? There are far too many pathways to know. According to the note left by my parents, we should find a crystal lens and place it in the middle of the cave. Let's look for it.
So you found the crystal lens! Hurry up and get this up in the center of the cave! What is going to happen...look at that. The symbol engraved on the crystal glows brightly and the ray of light coming from it points to a single tunnel. So we can proceed that way!
-
look at the essence
Monk
An "eye for insight" alone would not be enough to see the evidence in a case. It is like a fog over the past. We need to observe and think things through. Find the "lens of contemplation. If you want to help your friend.
With the "contemplative lens," the postings would be able to see the essence of things, not just the surface. Take this to Dr. Isabelle.
-
Blizzard Weapons
Icy
The Snow Queen's ice magic has its limits. If you examine the Queen's armor and weapons, you will be able to confront her! The walls of the houses in Arctic Town are marked with what appear to be numerous deep cuts. Look for throwing weapons with blades.
The "Snow Queen" could cut through the steel with her enchanted circle moon ring and call down a blizzard. It is not easy to create magic to prevent this!
-
cool down one's anger
Martha
During my search for Nicholas, I frequency tuned into the aura of the "Snow Queen." That's when I had the vision. I saw the witch standing at the gate of the hunter's village, with the helmet of ice and her eyes glowing! Perhaps the helmet is still here?
This helmet protects the Snow Queen not only from weapons, but also from our magic. We have to think of a way to break this defense.
-
gleaming sword
Huntress
The "Snow Queen" is not going to stop fighting against Christmas. Lady Icy is right. We need to look into the Queen's fighting methods and tactics and figure out how to defend ourselves effectively. The sword the queen used to isolate the hunter's village was a wonderful thing. Bring that one.
Friends, as soon as I saw this ice blade, I got goosebumps! Icy said that this was refined by ice magic. I'll have to think of a way to protect myself from this thing.
-
Protection of Icy.
Detective
Icy is an excellent Christmas witch, but she's also a real warrior and tactician, isn't she? How could she not use the Snow Queen's weapons against the Queen? All you need to do is find a weakness in the queen's defenses. I saw some gorgeous armor in town. I think it was worn by the queen when she isolated the village. Can you find it for me?
Arrows and bullets will not penetrate this enchanted breastplate. If you want to attack the Snow Queen's armor, magic would be more effective than old-fashioned iron, wouldn't it?
-
Secret Passage
Kira Woodville
My parents predicted that I would search again for my favorite magical well. You see, they left this clue... "When the path comes to a dead end, pull out the stone in the wall. Use your flashlight to illuminate the wall so you can find that stone.
We did it! We found the stone mentioned in my parents' note. And when I pulled it out of the wall, a secret passageway appeared! I am sure it was the fog that made me forget all this. I am glad I remembered at least the existence of the magic well.
-
Light pouring down from heaven
Kira Woodville
I was convinced that if I headed for the magic well, I would surely find items related to my parents. The note left by my parents stated that in order to find the well in question, I would first need to turn on the moon projector. Have you seen something like that anywhere? Let's look for it together.
This is definitely the moon projector mentioned in my parents' note! With this, you can see which caves are moonlit. As a matter of fact, the magic well is under the rift that is the path of the moonlight. Thanks to this, I knew which direction to go.
-
Unexpected Surprise
Kira Woodville
What I remember is that that well was in a spacious cave. How on earth could I find it? My parents were very strict that I should never come here alone, no matter what. That stone...yes, I remember taking a break there. Look, there is a mossy cup. Please take that one!
This cup is almost completely covered in moss. Oh my, there is a note inside. "To my precious Keira"...this was written by my mother! She wrote: "I see you liked that magic well very much. I left a surprise for you in case you go there again someday!
-
To the bottom of the earth
Kira Woodville
Somewhere in this cave, there must be a magical well that my parents took me to. But there are countless entrances. I don't know which one to choose... Oh, here it is! You see, my father carved our names in stone. Be careful, there are cracks! Use the winch to go down.
You found a winch! With it, you can descend into that steep cave. My father taught me how to use the winch. We'll secure the rope to you and lower you down slowly. Are you ready? Don't worry. I'll be right there.
-
look into the distance
Isabelle
With this past viewer, the postings can also look into the past to look for evidence of crimes. We'll need the Lens of Insight to expand our view. Find it.
With the Lens of Insight, detectives can look into the past. Every inch of the city's streets! Crime would drop from the streets. Let the ritual begin.
-
A World of Gods and Heroes
Mistress
To unravel the images Martha is seeing, we need to find out where the missing pilots disappeared to. If they are scattered across different worlds, one of them must have gone to Earthgals. Now, don't just stand there, go check it out!
This pendant is Sleipnir. Odin's eight-legged warhorse. This artifact of the Earthgals means that one of its pilots has been dragged into the world of gods and heroes.
-
legendary land of wealth
Isabelle
Martha's eyes are seeing strange images. To find out what they mean, we have to find out which world the pilots have wandered into. Let's search the city. There might be a clue that will tell us which world one of the pilots is in.
This golden bird is not just an artifact. It is associated with the mythical El Dorado, the Golden Horde. Apparently, there's a pilot who wandered into it.
-
Mythical Places
Martha
During the "distortion" outbreak, six airships and their pilots wandered into different worlds. To make sense of the images I'm seeing, we need to figure out which world he or she disappeared into. Let's look for something in the city that will give us a clue about the world the next pilot wandered into.
This pendant depicts the Vimana. Vimana is the flying wagon of Shambhala, the place where eternal life is said to end. One of the pilots must have wandered here.
-
Chalice Castle
Isabelle
Martha wants to know what the images she sees mean. But to do that, she needs to know what happened to the missing pilots. They wandered into different worlds. But where exactly are they? Let's look for clues in the city.
This is Luke the Lohengrin. Lohengrins are said to live in the mythical Korbenik castle. One of the missing pilots must have wandered here! With this item, I'm sure Martha will be able to make sense of the images.
-
the other world
Martha
In order to make sense of the images I'm seeing, I need to find out what fate befell the six airships. I believe they were sent to separate worlds by the "distortion"... leaving no trace of them. But there are items in this city that came from other worlds... let's find the item that will lead us to the whereabouts of the first pilot.
It's a necklace in the shape of a chariot from the afterlife! I can feel the aura of the pilot who's gone from the engraved markings. So the airship he was flying in has wandered into Elysium, where blessed souls are said to arrive.
-
look back
Martha
With Isabel's machine, we can see the past. To do that, it's important to connect the essence of the machine with past cases. Much like the gift of a psychic. We look for the "lens of the eye of the past."
With this "eye lens of the past," I can look deep into the layers of recent events and find traces of crimes. Take this to Isabelle.
-
Winter Extreme
Huntress
Did you see any snowboards during your search? If you did see one, could you bring it in, please? It's my favorite sport. I'm going to show everyone that I rule the snow slopes. Trust me, no one can beat me in a competition!
Ah, snowboarding! Danke Shane! All I need now is a winter jumpsuit and an angled mountain! I can screw up any treacherous slope! Is there anyone out there who's not afraid to challenge me?
-
descend a mountain
Isabelle
I heard you are planning to organize a winter convention. Can you help me? I've dreamed of sledding in the mountains since I was a kid. But I've never done it. Please find me a sled so I can fulfill my childhood dream.
You found the sleigh! Thank you! The sleigh competition's about to start. I'm off to the mountains.
-
eyes of an eagle (Accipitridae family)
Isabelle
With a magic lens, detectives could find evidence of crimes that happened in the past. Even identifying bad guys from shadows... a lens with sharp vision would really help. Keep looking.
The "sharp eye lens" is perfect for my past viewer. It will ensure that detectives don't miss any details of past crime scenes.
-
Predator Eyes.
Huntress
Isabelle asked others to help her build a "past viewing machine." According to her, the key to this machine consists of five magical lenses with special eyes. Hunters, like detectives, often work at night. Like predators, they have night vision. Look for the "night vision lens."
Even if I don't have Isabel's machine, I can see through the darkness with this "night-eye lens"! Take this lens to that inventor lady. Take this lens to that inventor lady before I use it for myself.
-
light source
Detective
I tried to open the treasure chest in Saltaformaggio with the key I found, but the lid wouldn't budge. Suddenly a panel was removed from the chest. It seems there is a place inside for a quartz lamp. I need you to find it.
A quartz lamp illuminates the back and ultraviolet light reveals a symbol on the wall... "The truth is near".
-
Amazing Fish
Detective
A projector in the treasure chest of a master inventor is showing a silent film. A mechanical fish is moving its tail. You need a fish like that to open Saltaformaggio's treasure chest!
Now you've got a mechanical fish! Wind the spring screw and the fins start to move. Look, the key has fallen out of his belly. We're almost there to open Saltaformaggio's treasure chest!
-
dazzling mushrooms
Vera
I'm hoping the crystal soak will jog my father's memory... according to the arborist's notes, the last thing I need is a glowing paste of firefly mushrooms. It's the most important ingredient. I've already found the mushrooms, so why don't you help me grind them into a paste?
Thanks to you, I have the glowing paste I need for the crystal soak! My father's memory is all but faded, but if the arborist's notes are correct, this paste should brighten his darkest memories.
-
Dreams of touching the past
Vera
There are a lot of rare plants in this cave! Maybe I should take over the arborist's research and find out the characteristics of the plants that grow here. But first, I need to make a soaking agent that will restore my memory. Next, can you help me find some moonrose buds?
You found the buds of the Moon Rose! This is a flower that lives in the crevices between rocks, where moonlight reaches it, and the buds only open during the night. Arborists have discovered that an infusion of this flower has the power to evoke memories, but only in dreams.
-
spy movie
Detective
I found a projector in the treasure chest of the inventor Salta Formaggio. It's so small. I know what to do! I need the film from the spy camera. It must be somewhere in the city.
You got your spy camera. Let's get the tape... the projector works. I've activated the other devices in the mystery treasure chest!
-
team sports
Detective
It's sports season in the city in the winter! Valerie's organizing a tournament. I'm not much for individual sports, so I'm looking for curling equipment. I think Juliette and I would make a great team!
Alright, now we can have curling in this city! This is great! We've got to get a team together. Why don't you join us? Let's see how well we do in the tournament!
-
Runner on snow
Conductor
I heard you found a pair of skates for little Valerie. Can you give me a hand with that? I've decided to go ski racing. Dusting snow on sparkling snow...how cool is that? Can you help me find my skis?
It's the best ski board I've ever seen! Thank you so much. I'm a little rusty. I need to warm up and ski like I used to. Watch me, young guys! Watch the old guide come out of the slalom gate!
-
figure skating
Valerie
Before I came to the City of Shadows, my dad used to take me to the ice skating rink. I loved going around on the ice... there is absolutely nothing better than a sket rink! Find me some skates. I'll show you this art on ice.
You found your skates! That's great! Now you can start practicing. I'm almost ready to retire from ice skating. I need to get back on track.
-
Resurrected Memories
Vera
If the arborist is right and the crystal soaks work, then I'll give you my tips on how to make them. The next thing we need is ice mint. This is a special plant that grows in ice. Come on, let's find it.
This ice mint is only available in this mine. It grows in the frozen groundwater and is imbued with the power of the crystals in this cave. My father's memory is faded and dusty, but with this material, I am sure it will come back to life in vivid color.
-
In Search of Memory
Vera
Hopefully the crystal soak will help restore your memory! Next thing I need is some violet root oil. I found a large number of flasks left in an empty arborist's lab, and I think it may be in one of them. Let's look for it!
From the smell and concentration, this is definitely violet root oil. This plant is said to activate brain signals that link memories together. I hope it helps my father regain his memory.
-
healing power
Vera
With your help, I think I can make a crystal soak for my father. According to a note from an arborist who worked here, all the necessary materials can be found in this mine. The first thing we need is some grated cave moss. Let's find that.
You gathered a lot of moss from the cave. With that much, I'm sure you can make more soaking agents. Let's hope it really works. My arborist notes that moss has the power to heal mental wounds that prevent memory recovery.
-
Crystal Melody
Lucas
You will soon find out where this tunnel leads. But if you get lost, don't worry. I have brought my father's mechanical bird, so I can send word to the city with it. Look, look at this bird!
My father always carries this bird with him so that he can call for help if he gets lost in the fog. The bird is rigged to fly toward the city and has never been broken. Let's put it away for now.
-
Cave Breath
Lucas
I am ashamed to say that I seem to have lost my way. I no longer hear the sound of water that I heard at the entrance. Before you reach the dead end, you need the golden silkworm cocoon. Find it. I will explain why later.
This is the cocoon of the silkworm that lives in this cave. These threads are so thin that they sway just by breathing quietly nearby. The tunnel, which is not a dead end, should have some air circulating through it. Let's pull one thread out of this cocoon and use it. See, the thread shook at the tunnel on the left side. Let's go that way!
-
Right direction
Lucas
Was it left when you just turned? Or was it right? I hope you don't suddenly find yourself back at the starting point... I should have brought my compass. There may be something that was dropped by a miner who visited here in the past. Let's look for it.
This is a direction bracelet. It is better than a compass! I have heard from Vila about a tool very similar to this. She said that it works according to the person wearing it. Even if the person does not know which way he/she should go, this bracelet will guide him/her in the right direction.

strong vitality
Lucas
I wanted to explore this tunnel because I heard what sounded like water flowing from the back of it. This means that this tunnel may lead to a river! To see if this idea is correct, let's see if there are any plants growing here.
You found a cave flower. Only poisonous crocus can be found in such a mine. The fact that this flower was found means that water exists somewhere nearby. It could be a very small stream...but let's go to the end of the tunnel anyway to find out.

Tangled Passages
Lucas
My father and my sister Vila are both very busy, so it was great to have you come with us to the crystal mine! I couldn't help but notice one tunnel underground! I had drawn a map showing its location, but I must have dropped it while I was distracted by fireflies. Have you seen a map around here?
So you found the map! I have only drawn two or three, but there are dozens of underground tunnels. This is the part we are going through. Let's get going. To avoid getting lost, we will mark the paths we took.

senior believer
Kira Woodville
Look at this. This is Augustine's jacket! I just saw her wearing this today. Look, here is the insignia of the Shadow Disciples. Apparently, she holds a high position among the disciples. Let's take a closer look at this insignia. The Order has different symbols for different ranks, but I have never seen this one before.
According to the documents on the Order of Shadows compiled by the Security Bureau, this insignia seems to be worn by disciples of higher status! But wait...this insignia seems to be of very poor quality somehow. I scrubbed it with my uniform to remove the dust and the paint peeled right off. Could it be that this is a fake?

Crazy about Wrapped Bread
Conductor
Even a grown woman like Juliette actually has a thing for wrapped bread. It goes well with a nice cup of tea. I know it's true. I used to buy it for my daughter on the weekends. I'd find a loaf of bread with a wrapper on it.
Nice, freshly baked, wrapped bread! The cinnamon and powdered sugar give it flavor. Did you finish the basket the detective gave Juliette?
-
candy that makes people chew their tongue
Martha
Juliette is a good girl. But it's going to be hard to impress her with just gingerbread. The detective was right to ask for your help. I suggest you find Trudernik. Tell me his name. You'll laugh.
Trudelnique are fluffy pastries roasted on skewers. It must be a pleasant surprise for Juliette to find a basket of pastries in the morning.

Evil Weapons
Kira Woodville
I knew it was as I thought. Louis and Augustine are involved with the Order. And it is not safe for us here. At the entrance, I saw a crystal spike hammer hidden under a stone. That is a weapon used by the Shadow Disciples. If someone comes at us with it, we will be in trouble. Let's retrieve it while we can.
This pickaxe-like weapon is called a spike hammer, a robust weapon capable of crushing even stones. Let's try it for a second... It's funny, the hammer shattered into pieces just by lightly hitting a stone. It seems that this is not a real spike hammer.
-
Hypnotic disc
Kira Woodville
Now, let's look for evidence to support the connection between the Capuchins and the shadow cult. The cultists sometimes lure and hypnotize people in the city. Louis and Augustine may have been subjected to the same thing. See, this toy proves it!
This is a toy called a somatrope that uses optical illusions. This may have been used for hypnosis. By holding the rope and swinging it quickly, the pictures on the front and back of the disc are combined to form a single picture. Voila, a caged monkey appeared. Were the Capuchins successfully tricked by the cult?
-
formidable shadow
Kira Woodville
Be careful! I saw something like a shadow for a moment in the foggy area over there. It might be Mr. and Mrs. Capuchin, who have joined the Order. Follow me! It's strange. No one seems to be there. I'm sure I saw a shadow...see, again! No, this is a projected image. Let's see where the projection is coming from.
You found the projector that is creating these ominous shadows. This...is what the Capuchins use in their film production. But this device must have some other, evil function. I'll look into it in more detail later.
-
Drawn with chalk
Kira Woodville
If I am correct, evidence of the Capuchins' cooperation with the shadow cult should be found in the mine. Look at the walls. The symbols and marks of the cult are chalked all over the place. Come to think of it, I have seen Luis chalk information on the cachinas several times. Look for his chalk.
This chalk container belongs to Luis Capuchin. I have seen him holding it in his hand as he wrote the type of filter and lens number on the capuchin while shooting. There is no doubt that it was Mr. and Mrs. Capuchin who painted the symbols of the Order on the walls of the cave! But why on earth?

Special Traps
Vera
The moment you separate the ore from the anti-mist crystal, it will lose its energy source and will go looking for its next host. It's better to catch it right away, since it is very active and is also charged with a lot of power from the anti-mist crystal. Can you lend a hand?
The trap is ready. Now we just need to set the energy bait and... okay, we're done! The ore should go straight to the bait as soon as it's separated from the anti-mist crystal. But you might want to stay a little further away just in case. You don't want the ore to come to you and try to parasitize you.

all-seeing eye
Detective
I've deciphered the inscription! Only the deserving will solve the riddle." Hmmm, what's this weird hole in the treasure chest? Weird, it's a peephole! We'll need an upside-down peephole to see inside. Go look for it.
Thanks to the upside-down peephole, you're one step closer to the secrets of Salta Formaggio. Something clicked inside. On one side of the treasure chest, a small stash has opened up. And inside... a projector?
-
Sweetness with a hole
Valerie
Giving Juliette a pastry basket is a great idea. But it looks like the detective is having trouble making it work. Try finding some doughnuts. They're easy to eat and you can watch people through the holes. I do it all the time!
This is no ordinary doughnut. How big! You really know how to pick your pastries. Find me one like this, okay?
-
Taste of Childhood
Lady Peacock
Your idea is very romantic, Detective. I can't believe you gave Julie a basket full of pastries! If you want something to impress her, it's a sugar-coated croissant. They are the most popular pastries among Parisians. Paris is the most romantic city in the world!
Just smelling the croissants makes me feel better. Julie will be pleased! You won't find croissants like these in my hometown.

Meticulous work
Vera
Once the nitrogen action has peaked the ore activity, saline solution is injected between the antifog crystal and the parasitic ore to begin the removal process. But to do that, we need a laser scalpel. Where can I find one?
Thanks for finding the laser scalpel! I'll use this to make a thin incision where the crystal and ore are connected and inject saline solution into it. The saline solution should spread over the surface of the crystal and remove the parasitic ore.
-
waking
Vera
If even a single parasitic ore particle remains in the anti-fog crystal, it will spread back into the wrinkles. To completely remove the ore from the crystal, it must be collected in one place and in one state. We'll need nitrogen for that. Can you find it for me?
You found nitrogen in the chalice. Perfect. If you feed the nitrogen to the parasitic ore, it should become extremely active and then go to sleep. We have to time it just right or it won't work. Careful.
-
Secret code
Detective
Think how much Saltaformaggio's invention will help my research! I can't rely on my skills alone in a city full of anomalies. There's some symbol on the lid of Saltaformaggio's treasure chest. It's a code! You're going to need to find a disk-shaped cipher instrument to decipher it.
Hmmm, the disk cipher machine sounds complicated...but I'll gladly take the time to understand how it works for the secret of the Salta Formaggio.

temple bell rung 108 times on New Year's Eve
Hanako
There is one more thing that will help Adeline focus her mind as well as decorate her work space nicely. You will find a bell called a "rin." These are placed at Buddhist altars and temples and are said to be the source of enlightenment. Placing it under a cherry tree will give it great power.
You found Rin! Let's immediately place it under the cherry tree. Yes, to the left of the teapot. How nice! I am sure Adeline will be delighted with her new work space.

Expulsion of parasitic organisms
Vera
Crystals can be cleaned with salt. The same method should be able to remove parasites from anti-fog crystals. Now we need to prepare a special saline solution. We need a special container for it, because a normal container will corrode. Can you find one for me?
This container is perfect. The brine won't spoil and the silver plating won't come off. I'm sure the parasitic ores would not like the brine!
-
one's inner world
Vera
I'll use a chemical reaction to separate the parasitic ore from the anti-mist crystal. It's a very simple method and should be safe for the city. But first, let's examine the outer structure. I believe I have a magnifying glass around here somewhere. Can you help me find it?
I see you brought a magnifying glass. Okay, let's take a quick look. The outside of the antifog crystal has a lattice pattern. And the parasitic ore is constantly changing shape. That's why there's a small gap between the crystal and the ore. I think I may have figured out how to separate them.
-
mysterious and unconfirmed animals (e.g. chupacabra, etc.)
Vera
I knew this ore was alive! And the destructive chemical reactions happening inside are being caused by an external energy source. Maybe... hey, is there another place in this cave where this stone can be found? And in a merged state with some organic substance!
You found the mushroom that merged with the dangerous ore in the example. I was right after all! This ore is a parasite! It's a parasite on the mushroom, gradually destroying it, taking its energy for its own.

twisted pretzel
Huntress
Are you looking for a pastry to please Julait? That girl doesn't seem to have much of a sweet tooth. Maybe we should avoid round breads or anything with a sweet filling. A traditional German pretzel sounds like a good choice. They have a natural flavor and they're the symbol of the bakery. Can you help me find some pretzels?
Oh my God, it's a real German pretzel! Lucky me, I haven't seen pretzels like this since I was a kid. Juliette will be very pleased.
-
Special cushions
Hanako
The stationery is ready and the tea is ready...but there is no place for Adeline to sit while you work. Sitting directly on the ground does not inspire inspiration. Please bring a zabuton, a traditional Japanese cushion.
You have found the zabuton! In Japan, it is said that sitting on a zabuton helps to focus the mind. Let's immediately lay it out under the cherry tree...wonderful! The reporter's work space will be ready soon.
-
Drinks that bring balance
Hanako
For a job that requires creativity, it is important to have a balance of energy. A fragrant, calming tea is needed for Adeline's work space. Please find a tea kettle so that you can brew tea.
Thanks to your finding the ceramic tea kettle, I was able to brew a very tasty cup of tea. Just smelling this aroma is soothing. It makes my work space even more cozy! I am sure Adeline will love it.
-
Beautiful handwriting
Hanako
Imagine Adeline sitting under a cherry tree. Inspiration strikes, and she grabs a notepad...but there's nothing to write with. Find a set of brush pens. With it, she can write beautiful, flowing letters. It's a must-have for her work space.
With this brush pen and paper, you are always ready to write. Together with cherry blossoms, these beautiful items will fill your work space with a special atmosphere. It is a wonderful space that will satisfy even the most discriminating Japanese writer.
-
First things first
Hanako
I am sure that looking at the cherry blossoms will inspire you, Adeline. Since you seem to have thrown away your notepad because you couldn't come up with a good sentence, find it. And we're going to create a work space in the garden. Can you lend a hand?
Beautiful notepad. It is perfect for Adeline! But a notepad is not enough to get the job done.

Copper Venus
Isabelle
If my interpretation of the ancient alchemical script is correct, then Martha needs a Venusian celestial globe made of copper. To restore Helen's consciousness. Let's find it.
The Celestial Ritual of Venus is a perfect substitute for making a "planetary alignment amulet." It will help Helen regain consciousness. Let me and Martha help. Perhaps this meditative state is due to an anomaly.

Another source of energy
Vera
How do you disable an ore that has self-destructive chemistry inside? It should be impossible for it to continue to exist in this state. But maybe...I knew it! Bring me the organic acid in my bag. I'll explain it to you in a minute!
You look like you don't know what's going on. But this organic acid should help you figure it all out. When I put a grain of ore in this acid... voila! The stone itself was monochromatic. This stone is getting its energy from something else.
-
Unexplained Phenomena
Vera
Looks like we're one step closer to figuring out how to neutralize the dreaded ore. This stone appears to be some sort of living object. Let's soak some litmus paper and examine the stone before it hardens into a liquid form. Can you bring the litmus paper?
You found your litmus paper! If I'm right and this stone is in fact "alive", there should be acidic tissue specific to the organism... oh my, what does this mean? There's a constant chemical reaction going on inside. It should be self-destructive in this state.
-
living stone
Vera
It's interesting that this ore, which can manipulate humans, can be altered to suit individual organisms. In a way, I suppose you could say it's "alive." Yes, let's try a simple experiment. Can you go find some red-hot cinders?
This cinder is still hot. I'm going to try to chip away some of the ore and move it closer to the cinders... look, look! It's gone from solid to liquid. And it's moving away from the cinders little by little...it's alive after all!
