star under the sea
Martha
Decorate your aquarium beautifully with starfish. Go find them.
Those beautiful, colorful starfish are sitting still at the bottom of the tank. Light streams down its arms.
-
The obvious answer
Huntress
Lady wants to win the heart of a gatekeeper with a cake? That's a funny solution. Then wouldn't it make sense to use a heart-shaped baking pan? I saw one of those somewhere.
Great. With a heart-shaped cake, even the gatekeeper will know immediately what the lady is trying to say.
-
Aquarium Corals
Martha
Golden fish? They are very fickle creatures. Do you have a home for goldfish? No? That's why we have a problem. Wishes come true, but other people get into trouble. Make them a beautiful aquarium. That way, the fish will feel at home. First, find some sand and coral.
Place sand on the bottom of the tank and carefully place the corals on top of the sand. Follow Feng Shui.

Light in the Darkness
Cardsharp
Friend of the heart, I overheard that you are looking for a lantern to fight evil spirits? Let me give you some advice. Look for the lamp in the dungeon. They are used by the Newcomers as they descend into the city's dungeons. Its light attracts the diggers.
It's a dungeon lamp, isn't it? To tell you the truth, I have been in the dungeons where the "horrors of darkness" dwell. I have seen terrible things, I have! I was standing at the entrance to a bar in town! Penniless!
-
compromise
Detective
Do you think the gatekeepers would be impressed with the cake? Wouldn't the lady be better off baking a mackerel or something? If not, let's find a baking die in the shape of a fish.
You found a "fish-shaped mold! Well, if it is baked in such a shape, even a cake will make me drool.
-
win someone's heart
Juliette
Let's cheer on the gatekeeper and the lady to make their relationship work! I hear that to win a man's heart, you have to win his stomach. Let's bake him something sweet! The lady is a master at baking Easter cupcakes. But I doubt the gatekeeper will notice her intentions. Let's look for an oddly shaped baking pan! I think I've seen a mold shaped like a castle somewhere.
A cake with a tower like this is sure to whet the appetite! I bet the gatekeepers would be amazed. It would be a good start to an honest discussion!
-
Halloween Sweet Treats
Valerie
The only candy I can find is candy. This isn't enough. Let's make some cupcakes. We can decorate them with spiders and spider webs.
Very yummy looking cupcakes! The spiders are really realistic! Can I eat these too?
-
all night long
Valerie
It just occurred to me: ....... Maybe some people just can't stay up all night to party. Let's find a pumpkin energy drink for those frail souls. It's energizing and fits right in with the theme of the day.
Mmmm, smells so good. And it's delicious! I can't sit still after just one sip.
-
Direct connection
The spirits of the forest have noticed that the druid's magic is having strange effects and want to help Mr. Bommarito. The spirits have created a special artifact that strengthens his connection to the forces of nature. It is the druid's crown. Go find it.
Wonderful. A druid's crown! Please deliver it to Martha. If she wears it during the spell breaking ceremony, the invisible forest spirits will come and control the flow of magic.
-
Autumn Gift
Martha
It's really odd that a druid's spell could create such a dangerous anomaly as this time loop. It's not at all what Mr. Bommarito wanted...we'll look into that later. Right now we have to save him. Lady Autumn should have charged me with the ritual amulet. Did you bring it?
There's a lot of Thanksgiving magic energy in this fall amulet. It's going to help in the spell-breaking rituals, because spells require a lot of magic.
-
the water of life
Autumn's Herald
Let me help you. Let me save Mr. Bommarito, who has been trapped on Thanksgiving in a strange way. If I sprinkle the rain of fruitfulness, Raskovnik will be able to break the spell. The rain has just been collected in a vessel. Could you bring it to me?
Have you found the water of life in a rain vessel? Infuse the elemental energy of water into Raskovnik. That way we can break the time loop in which Mr. Bommarito is trapped. I must confess that I am surprised at the effectiveness of this druidic spell. I don't usually call down evil...
-
Mysterious Harp
Martha
The spell that is trapping Ms. Bommarito in the time loop is due to the natural magic of the druidic monks. We need to break the spell with a special plant that can open the lock and break the barrier. Go find the raskovnik.
You have found the wonderful Raskovnik. It's the herb that unlocks locks. You even brought the roots intact. But winter is coming, and the drops of life are already frozen. Must I find another way? But it won't be in time!
-
inhibiting element
Martha
No wonder Mr. Bommarito is so scared. Even I wouldn't want to be trapped in a magical world with demons. You tried to destroy the villa, but it didn't work. We need to break the spell to save him. I need the time spiral. Bring it to me.
With this time spiral, we can curb the anomalies. We can stop Villa and Mr. Bommarito from moving to another world. But the time loop is still slowly interrupted. Let's hurry!
-
Repeat every day
Mario Bonmarito
I hoped that my beloved would not leave me. Then, in a way I don't understand, a miracle happened. I don't know how to explain it, but Thanksgiving has been repeated many times. I don't know how many times anymore. Look at the torn calendar.
The same date appears every day on this torn calendar. Plus a farewell letter from my wife. I follow her and everything repeats itself...but the owner is no longer at the festival. Added to the nightmare is the fact that there is no festival. I am just surrounded by darkness and monsters. Do you believe me?
-
Dignity in India
Inspector
To keep secrets and protect what is behind the door, the Indian seal phase is sometimes used on doorknobs. Why don't we bring Isabelle a "hand-marked doorknob"?
Isn't that great? Isabelle is using the protective seal phase she found to open the door to the collector's house.
-
Halloween Entertainment
Valerie
Sweet treats are important, but a party must have fun. Let's hang a piñata! It's really fun to see everyone swinging sticks around!
That's a nice piñata! How did you find such good stuff to put inside? And so fast, too.
-
Sweet Table
Valerie
My next idea is to put Halloween candy on all the tables. It's much easier that way. You can eat it as soon as you arrive. And you won't get your hands dirty.
Have you found your candy yet? Let me taste a little ...... mmm, yummy ......
-
Attractive offer
Mario Bonmarito
I was walking around the festival grounds looking for my wife when someone pressed a flyer into my hand. I don't believe in fairy tales, but I felt like clutching at straws. The leaflet said that any wish would come true! If you find it, you will know that I am telling the truth.
Strange design, right? It's a flyer for a shopkeeper who sells everything. He promises that I can always find something among his products that will fulfill my wish. It's net profit! So, intrigued, I went to that shopkeeper's open-air market.
-
fall festival
Mario Bonmarito
It occurred to me that my wife may have gone to the festival. Because she loved to buy beautiful things to decorate the house. I never limited the amount of money she spent. But she was not at the festival. We were there to celebrate Thanksgiving and corsages were being given out. Can you find a gorgeous corsage?
Yes, this is it. A corsage for the Fall Festival. I've always loved Thanksgiving. At least, I used to love it until I got into this situation... but I like to think there's a reason I was sent here. Please save me from this nightmare!
-
Broken telephone line
Mario Bonmarito
I cannot believe that my wife left me. She was not at the villa. I started calling friends and relatives, but they didn't know anything either. I could still use the phone at that time, but then the phone went dead and these things started happening... Did you see the phone receiver?
Thank you for finding the telephone receiver. Unfortunately, there is no dial tone. But, come to think of it, the strangest thing is still happening. I am...far from home. Can you help me calculate and solve this problem?
-
Sudden Farewell
Mario Bonmarito
I want my wife back. I don't know how this happened. But I will answer your question. Please help me! On Thanksgiving Day I woke up and saw Francesca's farewell letter. I had done everything for her...this is a terrible net loss! She left with only her things. Look at the wardrobe!
The wardrobe would be empty. Francesca's things were in there. I always bought her the best things, no matter the price! I don't know why she wasn't happy.
-
Suspicious Magician
Detective
They are moving around the villa looking for the attackers, but it really looks like they were going to have a holiday dinner here. There's a table set up... but it's also possible that a magician lived here and was working on a secret potion. Find the deep dish. Let's see what's inside.
This deep dish is a work of art. It has not been broken, just knocked over. Hmmm, there's nothing inside. The line between the elixir and the dark magic is gone. But I'm not giving up just yet. We should be prepared for anything.
-
Invisible marks
Huntress
The detectives seem to think it was a very aggressive opponent who attacked the villa. Most likely a monster, but which monster? Help me find claw marks or fang marks. They could be left behind by torn curtains.
Here it is, the torn curtain! But I don't see any features of monster teeth or claws in the thick fabric tear. I wonder if it's a violent ghost.
-
Attacks without cause
Detective
I am trying to figure out if it was a robbery. The villa may have been attacked for profit. The walls are lined with paintings... quite a few. But here's an empty space. If the paintings were stolen, it was a robbery. But it's also possible that they fell during the commotion. Let's search the floor.
I found your painting. It appears that the villa was not robbed. But the painting is damaged. It was obviously damaged intentionally. It seems we're dealing with a very aggressive opponent who likes to destroy things that don't make sense. We must remain vigilant.
-
Failed barricades
Huntress
I don't know what is going on at the villa yet, but we need to find out soon and help the residents. The residents must be peaceful people. There are no weapons and no signs of weapons being used. But it is possible that they were holed up to protect themselves from attackers. Find the overturned furniture.
It's possible that this big chair, upside down, was for protection. But they should have put it near the door. Even if they were trying to break into the villa, they did it badly.
-
Disabled Alarms
Detective
We need to find out who is attacking the villa and continuing the rampage. There must be an alarm system because there are so many expensive items and artwork in the house. If the intruder broke into the villa, it must have gone off. Let's find the alarm and check it out.
This alarm system is not new, but it is a solid model. It is not broken, but appears to be disabled. The owner of the villa is at home and probably did not expect there to be a break-in.
-
Behind the curtains.
Detective
From the outside you can't see what is behind the curtains. We need to go inside and find out what is going on in the villa. Who is fighting inside? I have a gun. Do you have a weapon? Then get behind me and stay out of harm's way. Let's go!
A quick look around the villa shows that there is no damage to the villa, but you can hear shouting and noise somewhere in the back. Check all the rooms carefully so that they don't know what you're up against. Then find the invaders and catch them by surprise.
-
Coat of arms of the Order of Malta
Cardsharp
The symbol on the door of the collector's house belongs to the Knights of Malta. As you know, they were rich. Is there treasure behind that door, by any chance? Look for a doorknob with the symbol of the Order.
Isn't it wonderful? We've got a knocker for the Knights of Malta. Now it's up to Isabelle. Let's have her perform the ritual immediately. Can't wait to get into the collector's house.
-
Freemason Knocker
Detective
Don't miss your chance to open the door to a collector's home. Isabelle is helping the Freemasons get their door knockers.
Because the Freemasons loved secrets. Just like collectors. I hope this door knocker will help Isabelle figure out how to open the door to the collectors, too.
-
Large pot of drinks
Valerie
It wouldn't be a party without some festive drinks. I think you should make a delicious and healthy punch. To make it more Halloween-y, serve it in a witch's cauldron.
Well, you've found an awesome cauldron ...... that could pack any number of punches.
-
crown ornament
Yui
Speaking of the traditional attire that a princess of the Chinese Empire would wear, we cannot forget the headdress. It is not a comfortable garment, but it would not be appropriate for a private audience without it. Our father is the emperor. Find me the "women's headdress."
It looks uncomfortable to wear this. But I can't see why not. I'm sure Sister Mei is familiar with the traditional Chinese royal atmosphere and would easily pull it off.
-
Courtly attire
Mei
It's got a big collar ornament. It's a beautiful thing, but it's not used all over the empire. It was only popular in my father's time. It was made shortly before the war with Suzaku. Father would be pleased if you put it on. Can you find it for me?
This "large collared ornament" will add dignity to our traditional attire. Our father, we are almost ready to present you to the emperor. We just need a few more things.
-
Old norms
Monk
Unfortunately, the traditional princess attire is not very comfortable to wear. However, in order to keep up with the customs, both Her Imperial Highness Princess Yu and Her Imperial Highness Princess Mei will have to exercise some patience. They would have to find "very small footwear. They would be too tight for such a size.
These extremely small footwear are for women. They were popular in old China. By wearing these "tiny footwear" to visit the emperor, the princesses are paying homage to tradition.
-
Underground Reflections
Detective
Julie, she won't even look in the mirror. She's totally freaked out by that damned spirit. Buddy, Isabelle told me to find you a lamp that emits an otherworldly aquamarine light. She says it's the only thing that can defeat the accursed "fear of the dark!
It's a ghost lamp! I've heard of it. This lamp was used against ghosts. Now they make more effective traps. This is a very rare item!
-
Fans with pictures
Juliette
Princess Mei and Princess Yuy are happily preparing for their private audience. The emperor is your father, isn't he? Does their culture have etiquette rules for family gatherings? Let's find them some painted Chinese fans for them, shall we?
Princess Mei once showed me a fan with such a picture on it. It's very different from the fans used by European aristocratic women! Do you think they are appropriate for a private audience with the emperor?
-
fairy-tale flower
Valerie
Poor Juliette! She's terrified of the spirit in the dungeon. Isabelle says she needs a magic lantern to fight them. I just saw a nice lantern in the shape of a firefly. That's what we need!
Look, it says "fairy lamp." Is it supposed to protect us from fairies? I've heard fairies steal things from people. I think it's cute!
-
Noble embroidery
Yui
I know the etiquette of the royal court. But this is my first time actually doing it. I would feel more at home in the kimono of a "Suzaku" priestess, or in my battle dress. But that would not be appropriate for an audience with my father, the emperor. I need you to find me a ceremonial "embroidered vest" made of Chinese silk.
This "embroidered vest" is the traditional attire of a Chinese princess. It would be appropriate for an audience with the Emperor.
-
Cautious Assistant
Huntress
You know, I'm also curious about Juliette's frightened soul. I think I know what will make it go away. Find the bronze guardian lamp. That will keep the enemy from sneaking up on us.
This lantern flickers to tell you when the owner is in danger. I'm always on the lookout even if I don't have one of those!
-
close the door
Monk
If the doors are not guarded, no amount of chimera statues in the "Emperor's Palace" will help, right? Princess Mei will help them find a guardian to bolt the door.
This bronze snail dragon is the guardian that bolts the door. With it, the treasures of the great emperors of the Chinese Empire would be protected. This guardian is to be attached to the bolt on the main gate of the palace.
-
light of protection
Isabelle
I need to find some lanterns to defeat the spirit that frightens Juliette. They're the city's magically created alternatives for the Newcomers. First you need to find a golden portable lamp. Evil fears its light. You will recognize it because of its expensive appearance and the lemon yellow light it emits.
The werewolves and mummies will flee if you illuminate them with the light emitted from this lamp. It's a must for walking in the city at night!
-
Guarding the Bell Tower
Huntress
My friends, I cannot believe that those gargoyle-like statues can protect the "Palace of the Emperors"! But Princess Mei and Princess Yuy say it's possible with the Oriental stone cedars. Then we should wait and see. Find the "bell bearer" or something.
The guardian holding up this bell doesn't look like a very dangerous fellow. He has a firm grip on the golden bell in the Palace of the Emperors. This way, thieves can't get to it.
-
Palace Fountain
Mei
That cunning thief seems to have stolen the golden jug that the statue of the fountain was holding. I was always sitting there thinking! I wish I could punish him. Find me the guardian of the fountain, the stone dragon-crocodile.
I swear by the Blue Dragon. This "Guardian of the Fountain" will protect the "Palace of the Emperors" from thieves, along with the other stone statue givers!
-
banana cream
Juliette
Experiments like this are my specialty. I wonder if it wasn't actually a maniac who came up with this riddle? What is the material of the next mask? What color? White? You don't even have to think about it. Sour cream and bananas, please.
You already know how to make a mask, don't you? The white mask is the same. Mash some bananas and sour cream and gently spread it on your face. How do I look? Exactly what I was advised. Even if you want to look in the mirror, don't.
-
Sit high and gaze into the distance
Isabelle
What a daring thief to steal something so expensive from the "Palace of the Emperors." What on earth were your guards doing there? Princess Mei told me. She said that the oriental stone dragon fish can spot a bad guy from a distance. Find me the Guardian of the Roof.
This stone dragon fish is the "guardian of the roof." It kind of reminds me of a gargoyle! No one would ever think that something like this would protect a building.
-
Roses and Charcoal
Juliette
Mania game, I'm starting to like it. Let's move on to the black mask. I'll give you the recipe. I need some activated charcoal tablets, a few rose petals, and a little natural water.
First, make a black mixture for the mask. Grind the tablets and petals into a powder, then add a few drops of water. Now you have a black mask. Put it on your face.
-
reliable support
Yui
My sister, Princess Mei, told me all about it. That was a pretty ballsy robbery. Not only did they steal our father's and the emperor's treasures, but also furniture, golden lamps, and expensive ornaments! The palace is in shambles. The stone statue of the dragon turtle, the bearer of the stone monument, would have prevented all this. Look for that one.
This dragon tortoise is called the turtle lotus, and it is the base of a stone monument. It will cast a protective spell over the palace garden. With it, the emperor's possessions would be protected from thieves and the building would be strengthened.
-
Set and Decorate
Valerie
You know what women need for the final touch to their hairdo? Hairpins. They can be used for embellishment and to hold your hairstyle in place so it doesn't fall down too quickly. Find a hairpin, a pretty one.
I'm impressed that you've done such a great job with this exploration. I wanted a hairpin like this for my first experiment in hair dressing! Hopefully I can get the hairstyles to set well.
-
Restoration with cucumbers
Juliette
Next up is the green mask. It's breakfast! Fresh cucumbers! Why are you so wide-eyed and surprised? Haven't you heard? You're not so lucky. I found the cucumbers.
I slice up a cucumber and leave it there. Where is it? My face, of course! I'm not making a salad, I'm making a cucumber mask!
-
Son of the Dragon
Mei
Shouzu is the son of the dragon, the faithful guardian of his master's secrets. Shouzu is attached to the door of the Chinese palace. You must find the Shouzu. Isabelle will use it to open the door to the Collector.
-
Sweet and sour mask
Juliette
What color is the next mask? Yellow? That's easy - it's a honey and lemon mask. Mix linden honey and lemon juice and put as much on your face as you like.
Why don't we take a break? I'm relaxing with my yellow mask, keeping my skin taut.
-
Berry Mask
Juliette
Remember that weird letter from Mania about collecting the wrong masks? The masks he meant were the various masks we wear.... They are beauty masks. What color was the first mask? Red? Bring me the garden and wild strawberry masks and I'm sure you'll understand right away.
Would you please squeeze some wild strawberries and put them on my face? Here's your red mask. How do I look?
-
hair dryer
Valerie
I've got most of the hairdresser's tools. Yes, I definitely still need a hair dryer. I need to dry my hair after styling. Bring the hair dryer.
This hair dryer is not some neolithic antique. Honestly, couldn't you have found something more recent? Sorry, I got overexcited now that you're back. Okay, this hair dryer is good enough for a hairdresser my size.
-
Elegant work
Juliette
I could make a perfume concoction with a delicate, fresh scent. Now we just need a container. It would be outrageous to move the perfume around in a bowl! I wonder if you could find something suitable for the perfume.
This perfume container is a work of art. I'm glad I asked you to do it.
-
Gorgeous curly hair
Valerie
Your turn to find the curlers. Do you know what a curler is? It's a tube that you wrap around your hair. Bring your curlers and I'll show you how to use them.
You didn't know what a curler was, but you make sure I have what I need. These curlers are going to curl my hair. It's going to be a beautiful, curly-haired beast...if all goes well.
-
hit a nail on the head
Valerie
The next thing a hairdresser needs is a comb. You'll find it in no time. Can you find me a comb?
Glad you found a simple comb. I don't have any brushing skills yet, nor have I used any special brushes.
-
comb
Valerie
I've studied the basic theory of hairdressing. The details are important in this job. I'm going to gather up some of the necessary tools and begin my first experiment. First, I need a pair of scissors. Can you find some for me, please?
Thanks for finding me a pair of suki-sha scissors. Now, let me see if these scissors are the right size for my hand. I haven't told you how happy I am. I'm sorry.
-
Fragrance center
Juliette
Can you smell the aromas wafting from this improvised laboratory? Do you like it? Me too. I need a few more ingredients to finish this perfume. Rose oil. Just a few drops will do.
According to the recipe for the perfume paste, it is necessary to add three to five drops of rose oil, the most important. Each drop must be stirred. It is important to do this like an expert. I leave everything to your sense of smell.
-
Faint freshness
Juliette
The third ingredient is jasmine oil. Please bring it with you. Just a little is fine.
Add jasmine oil to a mixture of beeswax and coconut oil that has been heated. It gives the perfume a fresh spring scent.
-
tropical oil
Juliette
The second ingredient for perfume paste is coconut oil. Hey, you'll have no problem finding it.
I put coconut oil in beeswax and add a little heat. I didn't know it was so difficult to make perfume paste.
-
source of perfume
Juliette
The first thing you need to make perfume paste is beeswax. I am sure there is beeswax in the apiary, but I am too scared to go near it. They won't help me. I don't know where I can find it, but could you get me some beeswax?
Thank you for finding the beeswax. This is the source of the perfume. Actually, this is the first time in my life that I am making this perfume. I will follow the recipe so that I don't make any mistakes.
-
Useful Accessories
Doorkeeper
When I was a sheepherder, I used to put special tags around the necks of my sheep. So that I could tell at a glance which lost sheep belonged to which shepherd. Can you find me a tag with a ribbon on it?
You found a very beautiful tag. This will keep the letters from disappearing in the rain. Put the address and the name of the lamb here, so that in case Tommy and Emily run away again, the person who finds them will let you know.
-
Melody of Escape
Doorkeeper
You have all the tools you need to find and catch those lambs, but what if those kids try to run away again? When I was a shepherd, I used to put bells around the sheep's necks. That way, I'd know where they were right away. Can you help me find the bells?
You've found your bell. But which lamb should we put on...? Let's find out if Tommy or Emily is more rambunctious and then decide which one to put the bell on. That way, we can rely on the sound of the bell to catch the sheep trying to escape.
-
Sheep's favorite treat
Doorkeeper
When I was a shepherd in the mountains of Norway, I always carried a bag full of treats for my sheep. I needed it to lure the escaped lambs, so could you go find it for me?
I'm glad you found the feed bag. Thanks for the help! Let's put some yummy carrots in this thing. I'm sure Tommy and Emily will come by.
-
magic melody
Doorkeeper
I found a hat to give the shepherd's look, but it would not be enough to find and catch the lambs on the loose. When I was in Norway, I used to call the sheep back by blowing a whistle. But that was no ordinary whistle. It was a whistle with two tubes. Can you find me something similar?
This is a fine double whistle! You're not only attracting sheep, you're also attracting birds in the area! But before I go looking for the lamb, I need to do a little practice and remember the melody I used to blow before.
-
Shepherd's Look
Doorkeeper
Finding the lamb is one thing, but catching it is another. I'm thinking of wearing a shepherd's hat so that Tommy and Emily won't be too scared to run away. It's been a long time since I last wore it, but...help me find it, will you?
You found the shepherd's hat! Those kids are fast on the run, but they won't run away if they see this hat. Anyway, I'd just like to avoid getting lost in the fog!
-
Artist's tools
Martha
There's one more tool I need. A palette knife. The artist who painted me used it to make his portraits more expressive.
Did you find the palette knife? Let me see. Nice! Looks like it has the mark of a painter I know. Tell me later where you found this set.
-
Fairy tale characters
Huntress
What "animal" should I bring the ghost girl next? What did the children's fairy tale books say? Do you remember? Hmmm...find me some goat candy or something.
I'm sure the ghost will love these goat-shaped candies. But if you keep doing this, the ghost girl will keep asking for more and more. If you leave it to me, I'll get rid of the cheeky little brat. Then you can finally rest.
-
Big Ears Candy
Huntress
You say you're looking for something sweet in the shape of an animal? That's kind of a delicious use of time. Personally, though, I'm looking for something sweet in the shape of a werewolf. I've eaten a lot of that today... but a little girl ghost would prefer something different. How about a rabbit, for example?
That's great! The ghost girl loved the bunny candy. She's crazy about everything she finds. Keep giving her new "animals"!
-
Various paints
Martha
To paint portraits with magical powers, you need special paints. They are made of very rare materials, like dragon scales or fairy dust. Can you find them?
The paint on this palette is so vibrant! You could almost call them the colors of life! They are going to be wonderfully useful!
-
Professional paintbrush
Martha
Alex's portrait will be painted in oil paint. That means I need a paintbrush. I remember the artist who painted my portrait carefully selecting the brushes. He had two bags full of brushes. But we don't need that many. Go find some paintbrushes.
I can't believe it! Are there really oil painters in this city of shadows? Or did our guide help us? That man often finds the oddest things.
-
Pencil sketch
Martha
I need the right tools to paint portraits. I used to be a model for a famous painter. So I know how to draw. First, you make a sketch with a pencil. So find a pencil.
What a wonderful set of pencils. Perfect for sketching out my future drawings.
-
hemp canvas
Martha
To paint a portrait of a ghostly figure, you'll need special paints, a paintbrush, and a canvas. First, find a linen canvas. The right size.
You need the right size canvas to paint the best portraits.
-
Love Letter Cards
Cardsharp
You're being kind, you're helping everyone. Don't forget the poor credit card scammer. 3 stores. No, I'm not mad at you. I'm begging you. Please, please, please find me a card for Valentine's Day. I want to give it to a lady hunter. Bring me one that's not too sticky.
A Valentine's Day card without flowers, doves, or other silly sentimental things. This is what is noble and tasteful. The lady hunters will love my gift. What? A card is a nice gift. The important thing is to show her that I care about her! Well, besides, my finances aren't great right now...
-
Ribbon and Wrapping
Mayor
Yes, I think looks are very important for a gift. I've already picked out a gift for Martha. Onyx mortar and a pestle to grate herbs. Will you do me a favor? I want to wrap the gift. I need you to find me the right box for it.
A red box with a pretty ribbon, the very soul of Valentine's Day. Thanks for your help. I hope Martha is pleased with our efforts.
-
Expensive gifts
Detective
Flowers and toys are for kids. We're adults, right? Women want expensive gifts on Valentine's Day. It's a special day. In my experience, women like jewelry. Find me something that fits the occasion.
A pendant in the shape of a key to open a heart? This is what I've been looking for! It's just a pretty jewel. But to Juliette, it's a wonderful key that can open my heart.
-
Gentlemanly Gifts
Conductor
Hey, I heard you found a Valentine's Day gift for Alex. Really? I need your help, too. I need you to find a gift for Isabelle. I'm thinking a box of chocolates would be nice. She's your friend. Find me a nice box of chocolates with a variety of chocolates in it.
You brought all kinds of chocolates! This is a lovely idea. It's not particularly unique, though. Just give them a bottle of champagne or a bouquet or something along with them, it's a gentlemanly enough gift!
-
Big teddy bear
Alex
We, the men of the city, have decided to give gifts to the ladies on Valentine's Day. Romance, flowers, and gifts. You know what I mean. Anyway, there's a real competition to see who can give the best gift! I want to get Valerie something cute. Help me find something like a teddy bear.
Don't think teddy bears are the best gift for Valentine's Day. There's a reason why so many of these are sold every year at this time. Or maybe not... I'm not even sure what's right anymore...

Not for the cat.
Valerie
What kind of animal candy should I find for the ghost girl next? Ah! Oh, there was a candy in the shape of a mouse. When I was little, I always scared the cats away from that candy. Because cats like to catch mice. Go find some mouse candy.
Great! Now we have candy rats. Now we need to figure out what other animals to find. Let's ask someone for advice.

Souvenir locks
Mayor
Definitely the city is appealing to us for something. It's no coincidence that all the items have started showing up at the station. Can you believe it, the other day I found a locket with a tuft of my wife's hair in it that I thought I lost a long time ago. Can you bring that to me?
Thanks for bringing the rocket. I used to travel a lot as mayor. I always carried a lock of my wife's hair with me. I felt like she was always there for me.

A Million Red Roses
Huntress
I'm seeing more and more items from the real world past, from the city's inhabitants, showing up at the station. They're not monsters and don't seem to be of much importance to me. Who cares, right? But if you're so interested I've seen a few hearts made out of rose petals. Look for it! Definitely worth a closer look.
You found a heart made of rose petals. For some reason, it's alive. It's trembling and pulsating...or maybe it's the wind, or my imagination. I think I know who had this item.

Result of Curse
Juliette
Martha told me that you and your guide are trying to solve the mystery of the items from the past that appear in the station. Well, then you're missing something. There's a rose with magic on it, next to the newspaper kiosk. Go get it and I'll tell you a little secret. But be careful. That rose may be poisonous!
This dried rose used to be mine. It was given to me by someone who claimed to be my admirer. My mistress, in a fit of jealousy and envy, enchanted it. This is not the first time I have enchanted a gentleman who likes me... so I am still, alas, single.

Friendly little wolf
Valerie
If you collect animal candy, I have an idea where you might find some. I've seen them before, and I've eaten them. I once ate a wolf shaped candy while imagining I was protecting the three little pigs. Go find candy like that.
I like it. A friendly little wolf. And adorable! Of course, they're just candy. But this one is bigger and badder looking. That's why I ate them. The ghost girl must be thrilled. So far she loves the animal candies we found.

Mystery of the City
Conductor
A number of items have appeared around the station that are related to the past of the city's inhabitants. What the heck does this all mean? Let's collect as many of these items as we can and find out what's underneath all this. That carnival mask there just appeared out of nowhere right under my nose. Go get it and examine it carefully.
I'm not scared, and I've seen as much of what happens in the City of Shadows as anyone. But this mask scares me. Let's show Martha.

Delicious pigs
Valerie
It's been a week since the ghost girl showed up at my place. She keeps saying the same thing over and over again. Find me an animal! I need an animal!" What kind of "animals" am I supposed to find in the City of Shadows? Where am I supposed to find them? I have an idea! Do you think she likes sweet things in the shape of animals? Let's give it a try. First find some candy in the shape of a pig.
Look at this candy. It's shaped like a cute little piglet and has a ribbon on it! Hope the ghost girl likes these. Isn't it a great idea to find something sweet in the shape of an animal?

Capturing the Enemy
Huntress
You have to find the bola and throw it. Don't let the card cheaters run away in the fog. You can't catch them in the fog.
I did it! After one throw, the card cheater fell down with a tangle of legs. I didn't expect him to swallow the trick so quickly. While the card cheater was unconscious, he took off his cloak. Martha said that would take away the card cheater's magical powers.

Poison attack
Conductor
The assassin threw a cobra without attacking in a dignified manner! Hurry and catch it! Find the two-forked spear!
The cobra was nailed to the ground with a two-pronged spear. Now we're good to go. Watch out for the movements of the assassin card cheaters. He will try to escape into the fog again.

Long-distance fighting
Huntress
Watch out. Arrows are flying. Lift your shield. The assassins still don't seem to want to fight fair. You can try to spear them, but I don't think it will work. You should find a less honorable but very effective weapon. A sling.
I haven't practiced slinging, but my life is on the line, so I'm sure it will work. I don't need to get close to the fog, I can target assassins from a distance.
-
Drive away the fog.
Conductor
How does it feel when the trumpet breaks the silence? Don't let your defenses down! The assassin card cheaters haven't come out of the fog yet, but you can bet you heard that one. Look. The fog is advancing! It's trying to attack us! We have to drive the fog away with something. Find the fan. Then we can all drive the fog away.
Quickly fan it out with your fan! Yes, you can almost get rid of the fog.

days gone by
Alex
A strange scroll with my name on it fell on my guide's head. I was surprised. Apparently it was a poem I had written a long time ago, but it had to be in the real world. But it's supposed to be in the real world. How did I get here? The scroll is here somewhere. Just bring it to me.
Did you notice that the seal on the scroll is still intact? It means no one has opened it yet. It contains one of the poems I once wrote to a young woman. I'm sorry, I don't recall to whom it was addressed. But how in the world did this poem get to the City of Shadows?

challenge to a duel
Conductor
You look good riding your warhorse, don't you? Now, you must proceed to the edge of the fog and challenge the assassin, a card cheater, to a duel. First, you must find the herald's trumpet.
According to the rules, the start of a duel must be announced by the herald. But since there is no herald here, you must designate a witness to blow the bugle yourself. You never know what kind of moves your opponent will make. There is no honor here. Stay close to the witness.

Historical Events
Mayor
Hey there! How is the search going for items that symbolize important events in the city? The founding of the Five Wise Guardians is a very important event in the city's history. I still remember them wondering for a long time about the symbols of the Guardian Order. If we are lucky, we may find their first symbol!
You found the first emblem of the famous Five Wise Guardians. I knew you would be able to do it! Since you have found such a rare item, I am sure that the hidden street statues will reveal their secrets to Valerie, as the urban legend goes.

the color of sky
Valerie
So the riddle of the Chinese chow chun has to do with warm breezes and melting snow. Of course, you've figured it out by now, haven't you? Yes, the answer is spring. I mean, there are spring lanterns. Maybe green or blue. Can you find it?
Those found spring lanterns are light and graceful. It's kind of uplifting to look at! I wonder what kind of riddle it contains? I'll read it, shall I? "Beard on both sides, proud of the manner of your steps, first step to ascend, sing grandly."

be superstitious
Valerie
The second riddle on the Chinese lantern just got a little harder... what does a rabbit's foot on a horseshoe symbolize? Okay, good luck! I mean, there's a lucky lantern. I wonder what it looks like. But you are a seeker, you will find the lucky lantern soon enough.
What an unusual lucky lantern! I never would have found it without you! It's true! Now, why don't you read the following riddle? I know this one: "The gentle snow melts in the sun, a gentle breeze plays in the woods, the birdsong grows louder and louder, a sign of things to come!

Scent of the Past
Helen
If you are looking for an item that symbolizes an important event in the city, you need a piece of meteorite. When the meteorite fell from the sky, it had a profound effect on the lives of the people of the city. Just a small piece is enough to verify the authenticity of the legend Valerie is interested in.
Let's see... this is definitely a piece of a meteorite that fell on the city a long time ago. It was my father who first noticed the approaching meteorite. He calculated when and where it would hit and saved many lives.

The Reward for Creativity
Valerie
Chochin riddles are a traditional Chinese game. Rewards await those who correctly solve the riddles. The first lantern contains a clue to find the next one. I know the answer to the riddle about the moon in this field. Find the gourd lantern.
You found the gourd lantern. So my guess was correct. But what's the riddle behind the lantern? If there is no happiness in your life, an amulet will save you. Rabbit's foot, horseshoe, tiger, turtle, and cow.

the good times
Valerie
I think everyone who has tried to verify the authenticity of the legend of this statue in the past has come up with the wrong item. That's why the secret was never revealed. The next thing to look for is the statue of the phoenix, the symbol of the city's rebirth. Will you help me find it?
How was it? Amazing! You found the statue of the phoenix! This is a very important relic for the people of the city. People who have been in town for a long time told me about it. They say that the city suddenly reached a turning point and began to reflect itself. It was as if all the failures and difficulties it had faced up until that point were a lie, and it was completely reborn.

wonderful day
Detective
Okay, so the bottom line is this, right? We're looking for an item that symbolizes an important event in the city. That, and to find out if the unfamiliar legends are true... Then what about the ribbon that was cut at the commemoration ceremony that took place when the station opened? Do you know where we can find them?
So you found the ribbon that was cut at the station's memorial ceremony. That's great! I saw in an old newspaper that it was a very grand event. Since then, tourists have been visiting the city. Also, talented people stayed in the city and showed their creativity.

Festival Traditions
Valerie
Unfortunately, I don't know much about Chinese culture. There is only one traditional Chinese lantern that I could find. Let's start here. Bring me a red, round festival lantern.
What a beautiful festival lantern! What is this piece of paper on the bottom? What's going on? This is a riddle! What does it mean? "I see a reddish moon in a field of cucumbers. What does it mean?

City relics
Mayor
Valerie is not the first to become interested in the legends about the hidden street statues, but no one has yet succeeded in extracting the secret from the statues. According to the legend, the item you bring to the statue must symbolize the city. First, look for the brick that was used when the city was first built.
Take a closer look at the bricks...these are definitely the first bricks laid when construction of the city began. I recognize this particular design. It was a custom-made item created for a solemn ceremony by a certain sculptor who was well-known at the time.
