Festive Costumes
Empress
Let me take care of it. I know what to do. The golden bull cannot be cured by ordinary means. He is the oldest sign of the zodiac. Look for a festive red costume. I will explain later why it is necessary for the ritual.
You have found a nice red outfit! According to the calendar, Chinese New Year will soon arrive. And the golden bull is next year's zodiac sign. A red costume for the Chinese New Year will help create the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year, when the power of the golden bull is at its strongest.

Away from home
Inspector
We need an item to prove the connection between Juliette and the "Ballet Academy". Juliette was walking down the hall when she stopped to look at a handbag with a broken handle. Something about it looked familiar to her. She said she felt like she'd fixed that bag before. Could you bring it to me? I'll take a closer look.
This bag looks like it has been used for many trips. It looks tattered and the handles are torn off. What does the letter "L" on the key chain mean?
-
southern island
Yui
There's something else that contains the energy of the sun! It is the Chalice of the Phoenix. It is full of the most ancient energy of the southern lands, the kingdom of the sun. It will fill the sun deprived of energy. Find with me this chalice in the shape of a phoenix!
You found the Phoenix Chalice. You can feel the warmth from it, can't you? This relic is full of the energy of the sun. Because in China, the phoenix, or the phoenix on this chalice, is the embodiment of the female yin energy, but also a symbol of the warm and beautiful south.
-
The pain of loss
Martha
The things in the "ballet academy" that Juliette misses will tell you something about her relationship to this place. You seem to remember the hat from the Academy. Bring it to me. I'll read the aura.
The young ballerina who brought this hat to the "academy" was apparently mourning the loss of her mother. So this black hat is part of her mourning attire.
-
Childhood Dreams
Juliette
Dear friend, the longer I'm at the "Ballet Academy" the more I miss this place... I knew you knew one of the students here, didn't you? I wish I could remember something... hey, I noticed something. That little ballerina statue over there. Bring it here.
How cute is this "porcelain ballerina"? This statue is old, but it was obviously used with great care. The owner must have dreamed of being a ballerina since she was a little girl.
-
A real gem
Cardsharp
To complete the image of the dramatic endgame in my mind, you will need a crimson trident. With it, you will look even more sinister. Just like the real devil! What? This is my debut work! Please, help me! It doesn't have to be for me, but for that beautiful Mary.
I can't thank you enough! You found the perfect trident for my demon. May I keep it as a reward after I perform?
-
Gateway to Hell
Valerie
And let's not forget the props. In the play, the devil is supposed to emerge from the gates of hell, right? But there's nothing onstage at the moment. Without that all-important stage set, the card cheaters won't be able to finish the play. We need to find something to be the entrance to hell.
This stage set would look like the entrance to hell. The way this red fabric is twisted, it looks like a real entrance to hell. Much better than just shining a light on a piece of plywood.
-
Important Items
Cardsharp
I feel like signing a contract with the devil! Why don't we find a quill pen, or better yet. A feather-bladed dagger. I'm going to use it to cut my fingertips and use the blood to sign a pact with the devil! What? Everyone knows how to make a deal with the devil!
You've found an amazing dagger. Thin blade with a golden hilt inlaid with rubies. Perfect for a demon item!
-
Costumes from Hell
Detective
If we can play the devil's advocate and follow the play, we need to change what the card cheaters are wearing. Take off all that stuff he's wearing that's all jingling about for good luck or whatever. Let's find a jacket worthy of the devil.
You found a great one! I love the idea of wearing something like this to a masquerade ball, buddy. I like the soft fabric, the tight-fitting collar, and the cape attached to the shoulders.
-
Comfortable shoes
Adeline Svensson
The play's scenario is nearing its end. Soon the actors will be free from the influence of this strange play. The play is taking an unexpected turn. In an attempt to break William's curse, Mary has invoked the devil. Lo and behold, a card cheater comes forward to play the part of this devil. Let's find a red pointy shoe for him.
You've found the perfect "pointy shoe" for your devil costume. Do you think they'll fit a card cheater?
-
Burnt by the sun
Bao
The Arctic Circle, where winter lasts for 10 months, is home to many wonderful legends. The people who live there make statues of "Kusu," the spirit of the waders, which appears in legends about the birth of the sun. And it is said that this statue contains a lot of energy of the sun. Let's look for it together.
You found the statue of Kus! According to Arctic legend, the sun, moon, and stars were contained in a sphere held by a certain female spirit. Kusu then tricked this spirit into entering its dwelling, breaking the sphere with her beak and missing the sun that was inside. However, Kusu was then burned by the sun. Since then, the wings of the Watariras turned black.
-
The Way the Sun Goes Through
Monk
The energy that can heal the sun is contained in relics from around the world that symbolize the sun. The Egyptian sacred beetle figurine is one of them. Now, let me tell you where to find it.
I see you have found the Holy Beetle figurine. There is nothing that cannot be found if one searches carefully. In Egyptian mythology, the sacred beetle is closely related to the sun god Ra. It was believed that the sacred beetle, which moved from east to west, symbolized the movement of the sun.
-
Mask of Legend
Mei
We need an ancient symbol of the sun to infuse energy into our weakened sun. Perhaps we can try to find the Mask of Nyambi. This mask appears in ancient legends about the creation of a beautiful world lit by the sun.
You found the mask of Nyambi. Nyambi is a legendary African god who created humans from lava. The humans created by him were made to pass through a sacred fire. This ancient mask contains the energy of fire, life, and the sun.
-
calming effect
Inspector
I find the role of Juliet very difficult. What a role to play to cheer up the girl who ruined her lover! Julie thinks that if she makes a cup of tea and settles down, Mary will regain her composure and her head will start to work. Let's find her the right teapot and cups, shall we?
You found a great "tea set"! You should give this to Juliette. I have to roast some tea to relax Mary before she goes on stage.
-
solar battery
Fabien Delamode
I had to find a way to give Angelique some energy at any cost! I made a dress for her out of a fabric that absorbs light. If she wears this, the sun's energy may give her life. Bring the light-absorbing dress. She should already be getting enough sunlight.
This light-absorbing dress looks great on Angelique, in style, color, and material...but I don't see her being restored by the sun's energy. What a surprise! Apparently, we will have to think of another way. Oh, I really don't want to lose Angelique!
-
A Drop of Common Sense
Detective
My partner, Julie, wants to bring a glass of water to the stage. Because a glass of cold water would calm Mary down. But there's not a drop of water in this theater! So, I thought, why not get water from the well? At least we can act like we're drinking. Can you help me install the well prop next to the heroine?
Thanks, buddy! I couldn't have done it without you. This well set attached to the stage would be perfect for fetching fresh water for the next scene.
-
Balance is important
Valerie
Juliette is going to play the part of comforting Mary. That's my area of expertise, let me advise you. Find a pillow filled with herbs. I have one at home filled with lavender. It's been my go-to for soothing a broken heart.
You found a cute little pillow. Is there herbs in it? Let me smell it. It smells of lavender and peony. It's the perfect scent for relaxation. It will calm Mary right down.
-
Stage Decorations
Juliette
If I'm going to finish the play and save the actors, I'll need to decorate it appropriately for the play. I need flowers for my role. The stage needs to be decorated with potted plants, vases, and tables. Real flowers would be best. Can you help me find some?
Oh, those are beautiful tulips! I never would have guessed that such a lovely flower could be mixed in with a prop made of cardboard. And there's a little handwritten note on it. Take a look!
-
Sign of the Sun
Yui
Let's restore the sun and fill it with light energy. To do this, we need to collect symbols of the sun from around the world. First, the Aztec calendar. There must be some pretty powerful energy in it.
Have you found the Aztec calendar? This is a calendar system that originated in an ancient civilization and is in perfect harmony with the cycles of celestial movement. According to legend, the Aztec calendar, permeated with the ancient magic of the sun, was also called "the sign of the sun.
-
pairwise harmony
Bao
In severing the line connecting the Tiangongu and the sun, it is very important that no further damage be done to the sun. If the sun itself were destroyed, it would be irreversible. With the harmony disk, such an event could be avoided. Please look for it.
If we had not found this harmony disk, we would have been in serious trouble. It contains the power of opposites, or "yin and yang". Borrowing it, we should be able to break the line of energy created by the heavenly ngu without damaging the sun.
-
space noise
Monk
Dark energy is often unstable. Because its essence is confusion, when harmony returns, darkness loses its power. If the pendulum of equilibrium is found, perhaps the line used by the heavenly dogs to siphon off the sun's energy will also lose its power.
How dare you find the pendulum of equilibrium. This regular movement should bring order and restore equilibrium to everything that has energy. The dark and unstable energies of the heavenly dogs will not be able to resist the cosmic equilibrium for long.
-
Rhythms of Life
Yui
There are many spellcasters who use musical instruments to exorcise evil spirits. Evil spirits don't like loud noises. Could you find a magic percussion instrument? If you have it, it should help in breaking the line that the heavenly dogs are using to steal the sun's energy.
Good thing I found the magic percussion instrument. When the Martha ritual begins, I will use this percussion instrument to play the rhythms that the greedy heavenly dogs hate. This is a skill I acquired a long time ago, and it looks like I'll finally be able to put it to good use.
-
the power of one's mind
Empress
There are multiple ways to destroy the line connecting the heavenly dog and the sun, but you will probably need to use them all. Heavenly salt is very effective in exterminating evil spirits. Let's look for it.
Thank you for finding the heavenly salt. This salt contains a lot of chi power. It should help to dispel the dark energy that is creating the line connecting the heavenly dogs and the sun. We must do something before the heavenly dog absorbs all the heat from the sun!
-
Traps to catch the darkness
Martha
Looks like the heavenly dog is sucking energy out of the line leading to the sun. But it will take a powerful force to destroy it. Let's perform a ritual to free the sun from the heavenly dogs. First, we need an energy collector.
You found an energy-gathering device. With this magical device, we could set a special trap for the heavenly goblin. And once this evil spirit is caught, we can cut off the lian that it is using to steal energy from the sun.
-
danger lurking in the dark
Bao
Someone may have tried to put a powerful curse on the sun by sending a light-destroying darkness. I would like to use a spellbook to confirm this, but they are very rare and have not been seen in this city for a long time. Can you manage to find it?
You have found the spell book. This paper contains immeasurable magical power. Magicians have spent years mastering the art of making such amulets. With this spellbook, you may be able to ascertain whether the sun has been cursed or not.
-
The Nature of Darkness
Yui
The stars tell us about a dark presence that has enveloped the sun... If the wise monk intends to find out about the nature of this darkness, he will need a special item. Could you help me find the eternal knot? It's equipped with immeasurably superior properties!
You've found the eternal knot! It has mystical powers, and it contains enormous amounts of light energy. With its power, surely the monk will be able to discover the true nature of the darkness that has enveloped the sun. Once we know that, we will also know how we should fight our enemies.
-
one's mental strength being stronger than ever
Monk
I intend to perform an ancient ritual to find out where the darkness that is robbing the sun of its power comes from. Jade is a precious stone, also known as the "stone of life," that will protect my soul from danger while I am in a trance. Can you help me find some jade beads?
Thanks for finding me those jade beads. Gold has a high monetary value, but it is said that jade has a value that cannot be put a price on. This quiet bead will put me in a trance and the eleven virtues in the jade will protect my soul from negative power.
-
best friend
Adeline Svensson
Juliette has taken on an important task. She's going to continue the magical play and set the actors free. She will go on stage as Mary's friend. But she needs an appropriate costume for the role. Our heroine's friend is a flower vendor, so she needs an apron. Find these items for your stage role.
You found some great aprons! Julie will love it. It's just what I needed to create the image of a flower vendor, a romantic image loved by artists of the 19th and 20th centuries.
-
watchful eye
Bao
A proud monk is trying to identify the darkness that is trying to destroy the sun. A Taoist eyeball may help him. He says that with it he can see everything that is lurking in the darkness. Would you please find it for the monk?
This is definitely a real Taoist centerpiece! Legend has it that this ancient relic can tell us the origins of darkness and where evil lurks. What's more, this eyeball is said to contain knowledge about the creations of this world and everything that surrounds us.
-
Costumes for ceremonies
Monk
I will perform a special ritual to reveal the darkness that has weakened the sun. But I must make special preparations for this ritual, or I myself will become a victim of the darkness that has enveloped the sun. Otherwise, I myself will become a victim of the darkness that has enveloped the sun. To protect myself, I first need a Theravada Buddhist kesa. I want you to bring it.
I am sure that this kesa will protect my body and mind. It will repel negative emotions and direct bright energy in the right direction. It will bring my mind into harmony with the heavenly world where the sun used to float.
-
cosmic reflection light
Martha
When the light emitted by the stars increases in brightness, it means they have begun to answer about the falling sun. See, they are shining so brightly that we can't look directly at the starry sky. Can you find a star mirror? With that, you should be able to look at the starry sky and decipher the stars' answers without hurting your eyes.
Thank you for finding the mirror of stars! The ritual pattern on the frame catches the light of the stars, while the special alloy that makes the mirror softens the intense brightness of the light. Thanks to you, I will be able to decipher the stars' answers.
-
Everything is an act of fate
Martha
Stars are fickle and changeable. If we are going to ask the stars about the fallen sun, we must carefully choose the time to perform the ritual. With the help of a fortune teller's coin, I will try to determine the auspicious time. Can you help me find it?
You found a fortune-telling coin. These contain ancient energies that govern fate and fortune. Before the ritual, these coins will be tossed. If all the coins land in the same direction, it is the right time to perform the ritual. The chances of the ritual's success are infinitely increased.
-
A Tale of Constellations
Martha
In order to ask the stars in the ritual what happened to the fallen sun, you need to detach as much of the worldly stuff from yourself as possible. The most effective way to do this is with star nectar. Can you help me find it? If you follow the light it emits, you will find it.
I'm glad you found the star nectar. You can see it glowing even from a distance, can't you? Actually, it is the light emitted from the stars. I sometimes ask Helen to help me when I collect star nectar. She is the daughter of the astronomer, and thanks to her I was able to place my magic device in the observatory.
-
Purification of the mind
Martha
Stars have long been a symbol of purity. So, before we ask the stars about the fallen sun, we must first make ourselves spotless. Can you find me some tea tree oil? That should cleanse our hearts and our space.
Thanks for finding the tea tree oil. It is made from a special tea tree found only on the slopes of dormant volcanoes. Legend has it that it cured the illnesses of Chinese emperors long ago. This oil should help you clear your head before the ritual.
-
melody played by the sky
Martha
I'm going to perform a ritual now and ask the distant stars what happened to the sun. Will you help me gather together the items needed for the magic spell? First of all, we need a lithophone. We will use it to create the right atmosphere for the ritual.
Thank you for finding the xylophone! The sound this instrument makes is full of chi power, making it perfect for ritual use. Ancient Chinese musical instruments were assigned to different constellations of activity, and the stone xylophone is associated with the western zodiac sign "Sanshu", also known as the "three stars".
-
Resurrection of the Sun
Yui
The sun, falling from the sky, rests on a golden statue of a bull. Without the sun's light, all the creatures of the world would die out. Somehow we must get the sun back in the sky... Okay, let's write down what we find out in our investigation journal. Maybe one day this story will become legendary!
-
The bull, the sun, and the stars
Mei
I see a faint light leaking through the slightly open door of the sun pavilion. Were the plants growing towards this light? Does that mean the sun is inside... look at that! The roof of the pavilion is broken! Go inside and see what's going on.
As soon as you enter the Pavilion of the Sun, you're enveloped in the enchanting energy of the heavens. My body was filled with a pleasant warmth...look at that. Look at that. It's a statue of the "Golden Ox," or "Ox of Gold," as it is called in the Chinese zodiac. There is a glowing ring on its horns... but it is too hot to touch!
-
strong evidence
Detective
The diva is about to make some serious accusations. That her mother was behind that fight. But you're going to need proof for that. Remember the empty vial in the shape of a brooch that was on her mother's costume? Part of it was broken, right? Let's find the missing piece of the brooch. That must be the evidence we are looking for.
Nice work, buddy. This one goes perfectly with the brooch vial that William's mother had. You found this by a frozen actress? Hmm, that's suspicious.
-
clandestine meeting
Valerie
The diva reveals to William the truth about the cause of his fight with Mary. But he's still frozen on the second floor balcony. What should I do? Will he, will he answer my voice? I'm going to climb up on the balcony for a minute. Then my voice will reach him. Help me find the rope ladder among the props.
You found a sturdy ladder. Hmmm...never thought I'd have to climb a balcony for a guy. Well, okay. That's what a true friend would do.
-
Power of Nature
Anna Weber
Angelique no longer moves at all. She is truly just a mannequin. Poor thing! Come to think of it, I always feel like my energy is restored when I go for a walk in the park. Angelique may also recover with the power of nature. I have heard about something called a natural energy generator. Let's look for it!
You have already turned on the natural energy generator! This is said to have been made by the puppeteer himself. But this is only a small toy that can be charged. It's not going to help Angelique...
-
Music for the Soul
Alex
The diva that Valerie will be playing will definitely have a beautiful voice. She should also be playing some instrument. For example, "Rebecque the Three-Stringed Violin. A three-stringed violin. A sound that will touch everyone's heart. Let's find him and continue the play.
This "three-stringed Rebecque" is a true antique. It has all three strings. I will tune it and give it to Valerie. I bet she will be a lovely diva.
-
Small Costumes
Detective
I hear divas have pets. If so, Valerie's ferret Edward would have a costume too. Buddy, do you think one of the costumes in the theater would fit him? Let's find out.
You have a keen eye. I wouldn't have found that little outfit myself. There's even a hat! Edward would be perfect as the diva's pet.
-
Details matter.
Lady
If Valerie is going to play the part of a diva and keep the play going, she's going to need a costume to match. She has decided to perform the role without shoes. Very original! Let's find her some plaid "clown stockings". That will fit her image. And her feet won't be freezing. It's nighttime, it's a little chilly.
The stockings you found are apparently mismatched. But it fits the role. It's details like this that make a role. I'm sure Valerie will give a wonderful performance.
-
love
Lady
William must have been a very dear son to the woman the mistress plays. This must be evident in her attire. Such a mother would have worn a pendant or bracelet with his portrait on it. In those days, that kind of adornment was very popular.
The bracelet we found is perfect for a portrait. Here is a small portrait of William. The portrait is perfect for the role of the hostess.
-
warm heart
Vera
I want to create monsters that are kind, not evil. My father used to say that kindness comes from the heart. So I grew a living crystal heart for my monster. Here it is. Take it in your hand!
That crystal heart is giving off a lot of heat. With a heart like that, the monster would surely have a kind heart. It is said that living crystals are very rare and can only grow in an environment with zero negative energy.
-
Legendary Warrior
Vera
I've been thinking a lot about what kind of monster I want to make, and I still think it needs to be robust enough to fight well if attacked. There must be a legendary dummy somewhere in the city that the defenders are rumored to be using for training. I want to find it, no matter what it takes!
I can't believe they found the legendary dummies of the defenders! If the dummies are strong enough to withstand the attacks of the strongest warriors and not break, they should be able to be used as material for the body of a sturdy monster. All we need to do is add a little fear and it will be perfect!
-
Discharge to stimulate awakening
Vera
The foggy area is teeming with bad guys. So, it's better to have a pet monster with you. You'll need an electric motor to pump the energy from the lightning bolt into the monster. Have you seen one in town?
You found the perfect motor! A couple of the wires are damaged, but that's not a problem as I can fix them right away. It looks like we can use this to control the current to awaken the monster.
-
Sky Energy
Vera
To awaken a monster, you need powerful energy. We're going to use lightning for that, but first we have to catch it. But we can't just wait for the storm to hit...oh yeah, I have an idea! Can you find me a kite? We can use that to catch the lightning bolt.
Where did you find this kite? This one was made by my father for me and Lucas. He attached a lightning rod to it so that when we played with the kite during storms, it wouldn't get struck by lightning. One time, though, a gust of wind blew it away.
-
A Moment of Rage
Vera
Good, you're going along with my experiment. First, can you help me find a few things together that I need to make a monster? We need something to strap the monster to before it awakens. Let's find some sturdy straps!
Well, well, well... you found a very sturdy strap! Thank God! If the experiment goes well and the monster awakens, there's a chance it could get angry for a moment. Even in such a case, I'll be safe with this strap strapped to me.
-
The Sparkle of Dawn
Fabien Delamode
Materials that are difficult to obtain have high value. For a new collection, we need plants transformed by fog into rare treasures. Would you please join us in our search for crystalline flowers? You will recognize them immediately because they sparkle and shine.
Look at the brilliance of these petals! Exposed to the fog before dawn, the dew on the petals has turned them into jewels. Oh, I can't take my eyes off its beauty! Are you too mesmerized by the brilliance of this flower?
-
Unusual petals
Anna Weber
Color is not the only important aspect of Delamode's new collection. He is looking for special materials that no one has ever used before. Why not find delicate feather flowers created by the mist from the beautiful flowers of the garden?
These petals look like real feathers. Thank you for finding them! Delamode believes that feathered clothing should be all the rage this season. If you make clothes decorated with feather flowers, you are sure to be inundated with customers.
-
social status
Adeline Svensson
This image isn't enough! We still need something to make the character of William's mother stand out. She definitely valued her social status, contrary to her son. Contrary to her son. I get it! Noble ladies of that era wore "ruffled collars." Let's look for that one.
The "ruffled collar" found was worn with a dress with a low neckline. The darker colors would make the skin appear more flattering. It represented the noble social status of the noblewoman. This collar is the perfect way to represent her.
-
lie
Juliette
The image of the noble woman the mistress is trying to portray requires jewelry. A brooch, for example. Let's look for it. These small ornaments will help the mistress play the role.
What an elegant brooch! Oh, look! It's a vial disguised as a brooch! But it's empty. And part of it is missing. I'll check under the cabinet again. Maybe it's there.
-
authority
Valerie
A mistress playing the part of a kind mother? Don't make me laugh! Let's look at this mother's house again. Here, look at this chair she sits on! This is a throne for an arrogant woman like the mistress. This is not the seat of a kind-hearted mother.
Look at this chair! The color of the fabric on the chair, the polished gold decorations... no doubt, this is the character of William's mother.
-
Mother's kindness
Inspector
In order to free the actors, the play must be finished. The mistress thinks it is his mother whom William is going to meet. Hmmm, let's gather the necessary props. Let's help the mistress get into the role. Help her become the mother who cares for her son. You see the broken flower that's fallen next to the actor? Bring it to me. We'll talk about why later.
William gave this flower to Mary. But she broke it and threw it away. Wouldn't you agree? Her kind mother hid the flower to soften the memory of this sad date.
-
The Playwright's Treasure
Inspector
Martha says she needs the playwright's possessions to find the source of the curse that binds the actors. Did you notice that the playwright uses "emerald ink"? It must be to make the script stand out, I bet. Let's find this special ink, shall we?
The ink you found definitely belonged to the playwright, did you see the initials N.B.? The playwright was very careful about the tools he used.
-
anonymity
Adeline Svensson
I did some research on the play written in "City of Shadows." I went to City Hall to see if there was anything left about the play or the playwright. But there was nothing there. All I could find was the initials N.B. in the notes. Let's look for something related to those initials. Maybe an old business card?
Oh. This pin is piercing a hole in my business card. And the hole is where the name of the author and screenwriter of "My Lovely Mary" is written. I can't even print this in the article. But I'm sure Martha will find something to write about.
-
true purpose
Martha
The cover of the second book that Isabelle showed me radiated a powerful energy. Perhaps a connection to the source of the curse that binds the actors. But one page doesn't tell us anything. Find the folder with the script in it.
Is that a "document folder" you're holding? Yes, I do! Only a few pages are left. The complete thing seems to be lost. Maybe the playwright has a copy. Let's see what we can find out about him.
-
toolbox
Isabelle
I feel the forces that bind these actors. I feel it from the stage. Let's examine the props carefully. What if there's something in that box that could be the source of the curse?
A hat, a glove, a piece of cloth of some sort... come on, things are getting interesting! The "props case" we found had the cover of a script in it. This one was written in "City of Shadows."
-
Flowers blooming in the shadows
Fabien Delamode
For the new collection, I would like to use flowers that symbolize the beauty hidden in the mist. How about cherry blossoms, for example? Their delicate petals are full of poetic grace. It would be very helpful to find colorful cherry blossoms blooming in the mist.
Watch these colorful cherry blossoms sparkle in the sunlight! Strangely enough, they are much more colorful than flowers that have never been touched by fog. It makes me feel like I could make clothes with colors as beautiful as these!
-
Delicate line work
Anna Weber
You have been asked by Delamode to look for plants that have been altered by the fog. How about looking for flowers next? I would love for you to find a wire-work orchid. I've seen Sophia get such flowers from her admirers.
You found a wirework orchid! I can't believe these are real flowers. It looks like an accessory made by a talented craftsman. I'm sure Mr. Delamode will be very pleased to see it!
-
miniature
Martha
The actors are still strongly connected to the real world. They feel it. But the energy that binds them is breaking this bond. To find the source of this curse, we need an item that was special to the actors. See that little statue over there? Bring it to me. We need to take a closer look.
This trophy is awarded to the best performer in New York City. It's called "Master of Transformation. They must have been very good actors.
-
Invisible marks
Mr. Black
Violet's plan to replace the dog's collar must be perfect. She is very careful. If we do even the slightest sloppy job, she'll know it. We need to attach this bug to the collar as discreetly as possible. Okay, let's find a nano soldering iron.
Oh, you found a nano soldering iron. Let's quickly attach this wiretap directly to the chain part of the collar. The most important thing is to work carefully so as not to break the wiretap. This nano soldering iron is a very useful tool. When you stick things with it, it leaves no marks at all on the connection.
-
entrance
Isabelle
This is the last thing Martha needs in her ritual to outwit Petras. It's like a never-ending path. It is a passage in the astral realm that opens before the soul to separate soul and body. Help me find the spiritual path in the Dwelling Place of the Witch.
I'm impressed! This is a perfect replica of the path that souls open when they go to another world. Let's see if Martha is ready to perform the ritual.
-
The doll that lost its spring
Fabien Delamode
Angelique is forever irreplaceable to me. I would do anything to bring her back to life. For that, I would gladly admit that she is a mannequin. If she is a mannequin, wouldn't she be moved by a spring-loaded machine? Please find it!
You have found a wonderful Zen-working machine. However, it seems that the puppeteer did not provide space for these things when he made Angelique. Unfortunately, this machine is not going to work! We must find another way to charge Angelique.
-
top secret
Mr. Black
Next we need an appropriately sized wiretap. The Sheriff's Department has a large selection of high-performance listening devices, but they're all too big. We can't let Violet find out. Go to the warehouse and find the smallest bug you can find. But remember. Do not talk about what you see in the warehouse.
This wiretap is amazing. I have nothing to complain about. Now all I have to do is flip the switch and...voila, I've got it. Is there a signal? This shouldn't be too easy for Violet to find. Now that she's taken over the TSA building, we'll finally be able to figure out what evil she's up to.

capture operation
Mr. Black
Once I lure Violet's dog to sleep, I replace it with the exact same collar with a wiretap on it. This is a picture of the collar the dog always wears. Let's find the one that most closely resembles it. Where should we look?
Oh, man! This thing looks exactly like the collar Violet's dog wears, down to the octopus-shaped nameplate that's on the real thing. Okay, now we've got the details right!
-
disturbed peace
Mistress
I hope Petras isn't stupid enough to fall for Martha. The ritual requires an apparition of the soul. You can help create them. There is not enough subtle energy in the Witch's Abode to weave a spiritual object. What are you just standing there for? Give me a hand!
That's good! You're a good assistant. This apparition looks just like Martha. And the sparks inside look like the only soul left in the spirit. It's a shame that this is just an illusion.
-
stars above the heavens
Helen
Martha needs the unnamed star to perform the ritual. Look for any reflective object that can only be found in the Witches' Dwelling Place. Find the unidentifiable star. Let me know if you find anything suspicious.
Oh, heavens! You're right. This star in the well has no name. It is a lost star. It doesn't belong to any constellation. It wasn't immediately obvious to me. Are you sure you're not an astronomer?
-
anaesthetic
Mr. Black
It would be difficult to actually touch Violet's dog. She may need to be put to sleep to install a listening device. Can you prepare a dog cookie with a harmless sleeping potion stuffed inside? Put it gently somewhere and wait for the dog to eat it. Huh? Why don't I do it myself? Because I don't want the dog to smell me.
Thank God for the cookies. Now all we have to do is get the alligator to eat these. The sleeping potion only lasts five minutes. Violet would not even notice that the dog was gone. Anyway, I had to install the wiretap as soon as possible.
-
induced campaign
Mr. Black
This matter is top secret. Please remember that. It is a risky mission, but it must be done. In order to put a bug on Violet's dog collar, we first need to lure the dog out of Violet's sight. Yes, we'll use a toy that makes cat noises as a decoy.
You found a toy cat. It's a simple contraption. You breathe into it and it makes cat noises. I'm sure it will do you justice. See, it works like this! The important thing is to lure only Violet's dog. We don't want to attract other dogs.

False witness face
Rayden Storke
The most detrimental to the reputation of the Sheriff's Department is the Shadow City Herald, a newspaper published by Violet. All printing equipment owned by the Octopus Unit must be confiscated. Together, you must find the plate used to print the Herald's logo. If you take it away, you will not be able to print the logo that is the face of the newspaper.
Thank goodness they were able to find this printed plate with us. Residents seeing the familiar logo of the "Shadow City Herald" have come to believe that the newspaper is credible and have come to believe the contents of the fake article. Because of Violet, some people believe that Director Black is up to mischief with Mr. Avocado!
-
groundless fact
Mr. Black
As long as Violet's printing presses remain in operation, the honor of the Security Service and my own reputation will continue to be at stake. The Octopus Unit guys are publishing fake photos with content that is damning to us. Please find and confiscate the photo printing frames that are supposed to be kept in this printing plant!
Confiscating photo printing frames from the Octopus Unit's printing presses would also stop the appearance of counterfeit photos! I've seen fake photos of security agents breaking into houses and robbing people in the fog, and that was Violet's doing, too. She must be brought to justice.
-
False Information
Rayden Storke
All the flyers and false information issued by Violet are designed to give people the seal of approval that the Security Service is an untrustworthy agency. They are trying to make people think we are corrupt cowards! Please help us remove the typographical stick. Because without it, we cannot print!
You did it. Without this part, you cannot print! If Violet's people want to hoax in the future, they will have to find someone to make the tools. But that is impossible. Because it is forbidden by law to cooperate with the Octopus unit!
-
Symbol of Truth
Rayden Storke
Printed materials produced by Violet's printing press could threaten the reputation not only of Director Black, but also of the Security Service itself. Therefore, all printing equipment at Fort Octopus must be confiscated. The type block should be in a conspicuous place. Could you please search for them with me?
I see you found the type block. Thank you! Have you been noticed by the Octopus Unit? They have used this type block to spread countless false rumors. They have even spread ridiculous rumors about our involvement in the illegal trade of confiscated artifacts!
-
An insightful look
Rayden Storke
You must hurry and find the talisman of the defenders. This is because the spies that Violet is holding need help! After studying various documents, the most powerful talisman was called the "Third Eye". Let's find it now!
So the last talisman of the defenders, the "Third Eye," was found! It was said to give its owner the ability to predict things, and was worn by one of the leaders of the defenders. We are told that he could tell when and where the monsters would attack.
-
night hunting
Rayden Storke
I hope we can find all the defenders' talismans and rescue the spies Violet is holding safely... By the way, have you heard about the defender who went monster hunting at night? He was said to have a bat talisman under his skin. Let's look for that!
How on earth did you find this bat talisman in such darkness? Regardless, I am glad I found it! Legend has it that the owner of this talisman was able to go on in total darkness without getting lost. Yes, just like a bat!
-
immortality
Juliette
So Martha is going to perform a ritual to outwit Petras. To do so, she needs the immortal flower in the Forest of Whispers. It was plucked hundreds of years ago and has not yet withered. Help me find the Lifeless Flower in the Witch's Dwelling Place, dear friend.
What a fascinating, magical sight. Vibrant colors swirling and radiating from a flower floating in a bowl of water. It's as if they have magical roots. They seem to live by these roots.
-
From the fog of the city
Isabelle
Martha has written a list of items needed for the ritual to outwit Petras. The first thing she needs is a source of smoke. But not a fire source. The fire carries the energy of the attack. We must not let Petras know anything. Find a vessel for the smoke from the Witch's Dwelling Place. I will trap the city's mists in it.
This lantern we found is perfect for creating smoke without fire. It could even fool Petras. I'll fill it with mist and take it to Martha. Help her prepare for the ritual.
-
The Face of the Enemy
Isabelle
The transformation Petras' soul experienced was unique. What was hidden beneath the stone mask he wore, I now see clearly". It turns out that Magda could see the true face of our enemy. We must hurry and find it in the Witch's Dwelling. It should help us defeat Petras.
The mask we found looks a lot like the one Petras used to hide his face... wait, there are some markings on the back. I sense human energy there.
-
Light of the Soul
Valerie
"...I was able to find something," he said. Petrified soul of Petras is not completely dead. It is in pieces, shards of light, because...", another entry in Magda's diary. It smells like incense. Quick, find out if Magda had any kind of incense burner with her. It should be somewhere in the Witch's Dwelling.
What a lovely incense burner. It's called a "shadow catcher. You can still smell the incense. Hey, did you see that? The smoke came out in the shape of a hand, and it scattered like sparks! Is this part of the scene Magda saw? This is a real conundrum.
-
Superhuman Robustness
Rayden Storke
If the defenders' talisman is not found for that crazy violet, the spies sent by Director Black will be subjected to horrible torture. Come to think of it, I have seen a bull's talisman painted on a shield that one of the defenders was carrying.
I was surprised...the bull talisman was actually attached to the shield of the warrior who held it! This talisman is said to have given the warrior superhuman strength. It was said to be as strong as an "enraged bull." Did this talisman really have such power?
-
Vessel Condition
Monk
It seems that the imam Isabel has already concocted the ingredients for the Philosopher's Stone. But that stuff is too unstable in the air. We need to find a drying apparatus for the experiment. A container to store the alchemical reagents.
Since ancient times, laboratory drying apparatus has been made of special glass with a lid that can be tightly sealed. The container keeps a certain amount of moisture inside to preserve the reagents.
-
Scent of Empire
Martha
The ritual of receiving the Colonel's message to Mlle. Peacock still requires a gift. Next is the Crown of Josephine Bonaparte. Napoleon gave his wife a title. Otherwise, she would never have become queen after the Revolution. Find me that crown.
You found "The Crown of Josephine Bonaparte". Let's start preparing for the ceremony of Mademoiselle Peacock. You bring the rest of the jewels.
-
Gift from the Mine
Juliette
So if we collect the gifts given to the queens, Mistress Peacock will receive a message from the Colonel! The Queen of Sheba wore a diamond pendant. It was a gift from King Solomon. Legend has it that one of the diamonds was very large. Find it.
I'm one step closer to performing the summoning ritual! The Queen of Sheba's Diamond is so heavy. Very romantic. But it must have been hard for you to wear such a thing around your neck!
-
Gateway to the Soul
Detective
"...my research was a success. In the endless corridors of the magic locket pendant, I found the weary heart of Petras..." This is what Magda wrote, you know. Buddy, help me find this amulet in the "Witch's Dwelling Place". My gut is telling me to. With it, you will know how to defeat Petras.
I thought it was a locket pendant, so I thought it would be smaller. Look how many mirrors are on it! For a moment, I could see Petras, the scoundrel, in the mirror! No, it's not an illusion!
-
Petras's Dream
Martha
Magda knew how to enter the dream world of the sleeper and meet the dreamer. When Petras was trapped in the bribe of sleep, it seems that Magda wanted to examine his soul, to see if he had one. Or if he had a soul at all. To do this, Magda used the Winged Crown of Morpheus. Find it in the Witch's Abode. It must still contain Petras' dream.
You found the Winged Crown of Morpheus. Let's take a quick look at Petras' dream world. It's pitch black. Is there no light here, no end? What a horrible dream!
-
Efficacy of Dreaming
Isabelle
I've read about Magda, the expert on the human soul. But I didn't know she was Martha's aunt! Let's check out her artifact. It should be in the Witches' Dwelling. That way we can find out how Magda stopped Petras. There's a wand made from a magical tree in the Forest of Whispers. That's Magda's. Let's check it out.
That's wonderful. Magda's wand! I can feel the reverberations of Petras' soul in this wand. Magda must have been researching soul eaters while Morgana put him into a hundred year sleep.
-
destruction
Isabelle
I examined the runes inscribed on the bells. To my surprise, some of them were magically handwritten by Morgana using fire. If we can find the carving knife used to carve the runes in the Witch's Abode, we can figure out what this magical destroyer was up to.
This carving knife was used by Morgana. She used the purifying fire to engrave the runes of destruction on the bell. But that did not even reduce the power of the artifact.
-
Phantom of the Spiritualist
Mistress
Waiting for and fulfilling prophecies is the main purpose of a spiritualist, isn't it, Martha? Morgana didn't seem to do that, though! That woman is a renowned magic destroyer. Throughout her life, she also hid hundreds of powerful artifacts. She used the "Fata Morgana Mirage" to create duplicates of them. You will find them in the Witch's Dwelling Place.
You did it! What you found was a mirage of the "soul bell" that Morgana created. Apparently, that woman was trying to extract the essence of darkness from the bell and destroy it. What a waste of time!
-
Frozen Souls
Detective
Hmmm, it seems that the magic value of the "soul bell" has been proven. But what about the unfortunate victims who were turned to stone by Petras' minions and had their souls stolen? I saw some statues turned to stone in the Witch's Dwelling Place. Let's take a closer look at them, shall we, buddy?
Apparently, even when that bell was under the protection of Morgana, Petras' crew of soul takers were taking people's lives. This "stone soul" you found is proof of that. Was Morgana watching this with her fingers crossed?
-
Essence of Darkness
Isabelle
Morgana would never have destroyed the present substance of the "soul bell" without thinking. It is very dangerous! She would have tried to understand the nature of the dark artifact before putting it into practice. Go to the Witch's Abode and find the Fountain of Truth. You will see what the great spiritualist saw there.
The essence of the bell is reflected in this fountain. This artifact is invaluable for understanding the secret knowledge of primordial magic.
-
Preventing oblivion
Kira Woodville
I was looking for a companion. And Vila responded. We were not what you would call friends, but we had a common desire to protect the town. Vila did not seem to mind that I was from the Sheriff's Department. On the contrary, she trusted me and showed me the way to the safe house. There should be a fog detector around here. Find it.
In my position, I could have turned Veera over to Director Black at any time if I wanted to. And yet, she tried to protect me. We had a cooperative relationship, but I did not take sides with either the collectors or the Security Bureau, and I remained neutral. I'm sorry I didn't tell you before. I didn't want to put you in a dilemma.
-
Resurrected Memories
Carlos Light
What I have in my hand now is definitely my memory. Violet's image has appeared in my mind, but it is fuzzy and I can't see any details. Let's hurry up and open the capsule. Lend me your special tools.
Leave the trap detector switched on. Do not take off the camouflage cloak yet either. Okay, it's done! You've opened the pawnshop capsule. Your tools are still reliable! Let's see what's inside... Oh, a lot of images are pouring into my head. It's going to take a little while for my memory to become clear.
-
Valuable information
Carlos Light
We are almost ready to get some memories about Violet. I can't wait to see what we can find out about her. Now all we have to do is find the memories in the pawnshop's safe. We must be careful not to mistake it for someone else's memory! Help us examine the contents of the safe to find the correct memory.
This safe has very little in it. Apparently, pawn shops do not consider memories to be particularly valuable. However, my memories of Violet are in here, so it was not a wasted trip. Thanks to you, I may be able to retrieve an important piece of memory.
-
Strong Mental Strength
Rayden Storke
Let us hope that Violet will keep her promise and release the spy in exchange for the defender's talisman. By the way, I have heard about the alligator talisman. It is said that warriors who wore it did not suffer a single wound when fighting monsters. Incredible as it may sound, let's look for this talisman!
You have really found the crocodile talisman of legend! This ani is said to be one of the oldest creatures to have inhabited the earth. It is said to be very stubborn and its skin is as hard as stone. According to legend, this talisman made the warrior who possessed it immortal. Do you think it is true?
-
Remarkable agility
Rayden Storke
It appears that we will have no choice but to give in to Violet's demands. She is holding the spies sent by Director Black. We cannot risk their lives. Let's find the defender's talisman and have her exchange it for the hostage. We might be able to find out where the cheetah's talisman is. Can you search for it with me?
I never thought I would see the Cheetah Talisman with my own eyes! I had only seen it in books describing the exploits of the defenders. It is said that a warrior with this talisman gains incredible agility.
-
The art of safecracking
Carlos Light
There is another reason why it is so difficult to retrieve memories about the violet. The pawnshop owner considers it valuable and keeps it in a safe. You have to use a portable wormhole to open the safe. I am sure you have brought it with you, but where did you put it? Have you seen it?
This portable wormhole is made of transformite. This is a very rare ore found at the edge of the "crack". We have already tested this wormhole in the workshop and it has made holes in all the cupboards. Hopefully we can manage to open the pawnbroker's safe with it...
-
lurking threat
Carlos Light
I can hardly remember anything about that Violet person, but I have a bad feeling about something. Oh, why did you push me? I see, a dart is stuck in the wall right next to me. This is a trap! Oh, I completely forgot about it. There must be a trap detector around here. Please look for it with me.
I am glad you found the trap detector. This looks like a simple device, but it's very elaborate, based on the collector's blueprints. Take a good look at it. If the detector flashes, it means there is a trap nearby. There are a lot of traps in the pawnbroker's warehouse!
-
Fog camouflage
Carlos Light
I never thought I would have to steal my own memories from a pawn shop warehouse...but I can't buy them back when they fetch such an exorbitant price. That warehouse is protected by a highly sensitive security system. It's best to wear a camouflage cloak and get past the surveillance. We have one for you. Here you go.
This camouflage cloak made of misty silk suits you well. And yet, you are almost invisible. I think I can handle this. Let's sneak into the pawnbroker's warehouse and search for my memories of Violet.
