Tournament emblems
Detective
The disappearance of the card fraudster is not the first case the Tournament of Mystery has been associated with. According to old files, four more people have disappeared. The police tracked them down to the Red Rose. Let's look around and find out more about the Mystic Tournament. Find anything that has to do with this event. For example, a gaming chip holder.
Look, the holder has the Red Rose crest on it. There's something written underneath it. "Assets of the Tournament of Mystery." This holder is old. The tournament must have been held a long time ago.

Favorite Place
Cardsharp
Hurry up. Don't linger at the entrance. The card cheaters are here to win! No, wait. This is a good chance to remember the old days... take me with you as I close my eyes. I want to stand in the middle of the event. Be careful. Don't let the noise fool you. We're lucky to have you.
Everything is just as I remembered it. The smell of perfume, the floorboards creaking underfoot... I'm going to open my eyes! Oh, where is everybody? What happened to the Tournament of Mystery? Did someone hook me up? But I can hear voices. It's a muffled sound, though, like through water. Someone touched me! What the hell...
-
The Power of Music
Martha
I've looked up a lot of books and for the life of me I can't figure out why Alex hasn't turned back into a ghost yet. It takes a tremendous amount of energy to stay alive. Where is Alex getting his supply from? I think it's the music that keeps Alex going. He needs to hear the music he composed and played. Can you bring me a recording of it?
Is it an analog record? How do I listen to it?
-
unforeseen development
Cardsharp
Gentleman there! I'm sorry to interrupt your busy schedule, but I need a little help. This morning, I was walking along the banks of an underground river, and a magnificent crown came pouring out of the dungeon. Just as I was rejoicing over this good fortune, a nasty gargoyle appeared and took the crown away. It was mine to pick up, and you will help me get it back, won't you?
It really is a beautiful thing. When it comes to this jewelry and superb craftsmanship! What? You said this belonged to the mayor's niece? You're lying! You're trying to trick me! Thief!
-
Sukhavati (Amitabha's Pure Land)
Monk
Decorating the pathways with a roof of lanterns would surely be more useful than a roof of tiles. But most important of all, pray sincerely for heaven's blessings... If you have time, please help me add lanterns to the Palace of Paradise.
Have you found the palace of paradise? Go ahead, take it; the three-tiered roof symbolizes man, the sky, and all that is sacred in the heavens.
-
Safe Place
Mei
Decorating the path with lanterns that resemble the roofs of Chinese temples is a very unusual idea. Let us hope that the heavens will grant your wish and protect the town from possible natural disasters! Next you must find the pagoda of the Three Kingdoms made of paper.
Let us hope that this paper pagoda of the Three Kingdoms will protect the city from disasters...there is a reason why the corners of the roof of this three-tiered building are raised...it is meant to reach the heavens!
-
A grand celebration
Valerie
I was just thinking ...... you can find traces of that poor girl. Remember what was written about the masquerade ball? If it was such a rare feast, there must be a commemorative painting of it in the mansion. And if she is rich, she must be in one of the paintings. We just have to find out which painting it is!
You just amaze me. Look, there she is. The one in the back with the pretty dress and the crazy expensive looking crown. Next to her is a mysterious figure wearing a mask from a box. And the other one next to her, I can't believe my eyes! This is the mayor!
-
Symbols of Sacred Places
Yui
I'm sure the heavens would be pleased if we decorated the path with lanterns in the shape of temple roofs. In China, they erect a tile tower at the entrance to a sacred place. Why don't you try to find one made of paper?
That miniature tile boy you found for me would be perfect to mark the entrance to the sacred place. You should display them at the entrance to the pathway near the emperor's palace!
-
Fencing Techniques
Huntress
The pinnacle of the art of fencing is epee. Find the epee for this student. While you're waiting, I'll show you the proper stance. This is harder than it seems. If the card cheater doesn't whine within 10 minutes of practicing a simple move while maintaining his stance, I'll review him.
Unbelievable! Mr. Card Cheater hit the leather target on his first shot! Sounds like you definitely have the talent and the will to do it.
-
javelin (throw)
Huntress
Stop obsessing over details, complaining and whining. There's no time for that in a real fight. I'm going to practice my preemptive strike. If you attack the enemy from a distance, the fight will be much more advantageous. Give the spear to the card cheater. I'll put down the target. Let's see if you can throw the spear as accurately as you roll the dice.
I can't believe it! I can't believe that the spear doesn't even reach the target! That's the distance the ancient Greek children used to practice. It was part of their required training. You card cheaters better concentrate on this practice. Shall we postpone the next lesson for a few days? To have them practice this.
-
place to hide something
Huntress
Alicia's wedding dress must have been hidden by the collector. The werewolf must have a stash somewhere around here. But it won't be easy to find.
This is definitely a really beautiful wedding dress. I've always dreamed of having a dress like this. Let's go back to the surface and deliver it to Martha.
-
Winged Death
Huntress
Let's split up. I'll go to the city dungeon and look for the werewolf trail. You go find the oxygen masks. It should be at the plane crash site. But watch out if you hear wings flapping! There are bats flying around the wreckage. They're poisonous. They will kill you in minutes.
Beginner's luck, that's what I call it... anyway, I found the werewolf tracks. They lead to the sewers. But more interesting, while following his trail, I found an old newspaper clipping. I guess the werewolf must have dropped it when he was going through that narrow tunnel. According to the clipping, Baron von Herz had learned that his fiancée, Alicia, was planning to elope with Robb the woodcutter. He was going to order Robb's murder and force Alicia to marry him.
-
Family spirit corridor
Detective
I found the Cruz family mausoleum where Alicia is buried. It's exactly where Martha said it would be... I tried ripping out some of the paving stones, but the pickaxe stopped working as if I'd hit an invisible wall... I need a heavy-duty hammer to break it down. Can you help me?
Let's go down to the mausoleum. See, there is a wedding dress placed in the tomb.
-
Practice axe
Huntress
Next to practicing my battle hammer, I'd love to practice my axe. That would be the first step in teaching fencing to card cheaters. Find an axe to train with.
Sounds like the card cheaters are bored with their axe practice. Maybe I should speed things up? Or maybe have him play against a moving target? Maybe that would motivate him more.... I don't think he likes being hit back. Even with the side of the blade...
-
heavy weapons
Huntress
The card cheater thinks he's a real warrior. Now he wants to learn how to use a hammer. Can you find me the right hammer?
That's a pretty big hammer. I wonder if a card cheater can even lift it. Maybe use it for weights to build up your strength first.
-
Knife Skills
Huntress
I can't believe it! Have you thought this through? He's a credit card scammer! I don't know what the hell he's up to. Weaponry in hand-to-hand combat is an art! Where would you like me to start... with a combat knife? Find me a knife and we can start practicing.
It's surprising that a credit card scammer is so good with a knife. He can do pretty much anything.
-
performing an ambush
Detective
Are you okay? It's funny that the werewolf didn't even look at us. He grabbed the invitation and ran away. It's like he was waiting in ambush, waiting for us to find the invitation. But I don't understand why they would need an invitation to Alicia's wedding. Let's go find out! I want to get the whole story as soon as possible!
The invitations are back. Let's talk to Martha. And you should also tell her about that big, strange werewolf. Did you notice how he just stood there in the distance while we fought? And that look in his eyes. Almost human. When we got the invitation, the werewolf howled and ran away. But we could barely see the locket pendant around his neck. That should help me recognize him the next time I see him. My hunch is that we will meet again soon.
-
Mystery Person
Valerie
That's romantic! I have to find a mask for the masquerade ball. Then we'll know who he is!
I'm kind of disappointed. I found the mask, but no clue at all as to who it belongs to. I'll just have to read the rest of the article!
-
inattention
Valerie
I wonder... if they lived a long and happy life together, why is her ring in a box in the mistress's room? Oh, I forgot! The ring had disappeared. Please go get it back.
A beautiful ring! Not a bad deal if someone is willing to give you a ring like this. But alas, it must be returned to its rightful owner. Shall we continue? Don't look at me so reproachfully!
-
Letter of a stranger
Valerie
Among the items missing from the box was an old envelope sealed with a large wax seal. It had already been opened, though. I remember it clearly. Find it.
This is interesting! It's not just one letter in the envelope. It contains all of their correspondence! They say nothing bad will happen if you read them, right? This is like a love letter! Something about a girl writing like this...
-
A Few Drops of Immortality
Cardsharp
Dear friend, if you continue to search for evidence that the Master travelled to the past, may I be so bold as to give you one piece of advice. Isabelle rightly noted that the Master's speeches are delivered with some delusion of grandeur. I believe taht such a person would have tried to find the famous Philosopher's Stone in the past. Will you try to find the stone in the laboratory?
Excellent, my friend! You found the famous Philosopher's Stone. It bestowns immortality and turns any metal into gold. Even I would learn to travel to the past just to visit the alchemists of ancient times for such a thing!
-
Eureka!
Isabelle
The ankh we found suggests that the Master learned to travel into the past. But one ankh isn't enough proof. Judging from his notes, the Master was a person who... um... let's say, was convinced of his own greatness. Such a person would surely have taken some legendary object from the past. Search for something like this in the laboratory?
You did it! This crown is very similar to the famous crown of the King of Syracuse! King Hiero asked Archimedes to determine its true composition, and as a result, with this very crown Archimedes formulated his famous principle of buoyancy... Did the Master really bring it back with him from the past?
-
Symbol of Eternal Life
Martha
If the Master was indeed responsible for the mummies appearing in the City, they must've been the result of his experiments. He wrote about a "Grand Goal" in his notes. I think we need to find out where the Master travelled for his studies, and understand what this goal was. The compass we found implied that the Master learned how to time travel. Could this really be? Return to the laboratory and look for something to confirm this theory. Something... odd. Yes, I know, everything is strange threre, but we need to find something even stranger.
You really managed to find something interesting! It's aGolden Ankh, the symbol of eternal life and a treasure from Ancient Egypt. It must be a few thousand years old, but it's in impreccable condition. It's as if the Master personally received it from an Egyptian priest only yesterday!
-
A Fight Inside Out
Martha
It seems you were almost convinced that the City had revealed to us the abode of a scientist who studied time. But since you need conclusive evidence, I'll tell you how to find one of the pieces. I saw a strange bell when I was looking around the laboratory. Why is it strange? You'll understand when you find it. I believe that all your doubts will fall away after this... Find the bell and bring it to me.
Yes, this is same bell that I was talking about. It strikes itself every hour, and... hush, listen, it struck again just now... Did you hear it? At the beginning, there's an echo that becomes louder, and only after is the ringing heard. This bell rings in reverse! Do we need any other evidence that the secrets of time were discovered in this lab?
-
Tireless Rings
Isabelle
It's not difficult to make a clock with hands go in the opposite direction. I'm still not convinced that the City has revealed the real Laboratory of Time to us. We need to look for something truly unusual: a familiar item that would violate the usual order of things... for example, that acts against the laws of physics. Can you find something like that among all these devices?
Newton's Cradle, which never stops! Wonderful. That's just what I had in mind Just look at it! could the laboratory's owner have invented this legendary perpetual motion device? But how was he able to overcome the law of energy consevation?
-
Fragile Magic
Cardsharp
Friends, let me advise you on how to bring back spring and revive the wilting buds. I think it takes a little magic. Let's be honest, spring is all about magic... you'll manage to find the magic symbols.
What a cute little fairy magic. This is exactly what I had in mind. You are an excellent discoverer! Now take your find to Martha. Let's trust that it will save the sprouts!
-
Wings of the Wind
Detective
I've looked for sweet swans before. Maybe there's some bird jewelry in there? Birds are a real symbol of spring. Look for jeweled birds, buddy! Then surely you can bring the warmth of spring back to the tree buds and bring them back to life.
A crown of sparrows taking off, what a complex beauty. It's as if this bird is about to take flight! A crown of spring would look good on Juliet. I'll make a note about this store and the troll.
-
Sangevese's vine
Juliette
Hey honey, spring is all about birds and dragonflies and green grass and trees. We need to find something green. How about some ivy from the grape vines? After all, what better way to save the buds than with plants?
What a beautiful ring! It is so delicately made. It's as if the smell is wafting from the ivy leaves in the decorative part! Oh, no, this smells like candy from a dream shop... but it smells delicious.
-
Premonition of Summer
Valerie
I know what the next symbol of spring is! Dragonflies! In spring, dragonflies appear. And when they appear, it means that summer is not far behind. It's so beautiful. The trolls must have made them out of jewels. Can you find me some dragonfly jewelry?
What a pretty dragonfly, made of silver and pearls! Look at those wings, they can twirl! I wonder how much effort the troll who made it put into it... he must really love spring to be able to make something like this. This beautiful gem will definitely bring life to the buds!
-
Detoxifying incense
Isabelle
I've found that the evil aura of the trolls is deadly to the buds of the tree of life. And if we can't make the tree buds green again, spring will never come. But with the symbolic jewelry of spring that the trolls have filled with warmth and love, I think I can bring this poor bud back to life. I saw a store that has brooches with flowers on them. Let's look for it first! We must hurry, or the buds will wilt completely.
What a beautiful flower brooch! Look at the fresh sparkle on the petals! It's like the real thing. I hope it will bring the buds to life.
-
The Spring I Dreamed Of
Detective
The last mirror to remove the illusion created by the fingerless troll is the mirror that reflects the future. It reflects what can and will happen from now on. The mirror is decorated with plants, and it is said that the trolls believe that spring will come again. Now let's find the mirror that reflects the future.
There it is! A mirror to the future! I see it... a big catch, a shootout, a chase, and a police commissioner's badge! Is this real? Yeah, you can see me standing in the troll market... holding a tree bud! I hope this is a sign that I'll be found really soon.
-
look back (e.g. over one's shoulder)
Martha
The key item to dispel the mirage of the mirror shop is the mirror that reflects the past. Hurry! There is no more time to waste. The buds of the tree of life are weakening at this very moment. And without the buds, spring will die! Find the mirror that reflects the past.
I found a mirror that reflects the past. This will answer whatever questions you have about your life. What have you lost, what friends have you forgotten... what do you want to remember? Look, there is a sleeping spring spirit carved into the mirror frame. Does this mean that this market was not always cut off from the world? Maybe it means that spring has come here before?
-
Catalog of Insomnia
Detective
The third mirror Martha needs to enter the mirror shop is the one that reflects her sins. Who else but a troll would make such a mirror? They must be looking in the mirror to catch gullible customers! They make you do bad things in exchange for goods, remember? Find them fast.
A mirror reflecting sin... how symbolic is this mirror frame decorated with snakes and ivy. It says on the other side that seeing one's actions reflected in this mirror will keep one awake at night. I'll never look at it. I would remember all my sins even if I didn't have a mirror.
-
Shadows from the subconscious
Valerie
Martha says that the second mirror needed to remove the illusion of the mirror shop is the one that reflects fear. What do you see there? Find the mirror. I'll ask Martha, the psychic, for more information while I'm there. Oh, I hope the tree buds don't wilt while I'm doing this...
Wow, you found a mirror that reflects your fears! What a horrible mirror frame, it's disgusting...Martha said that this mirror reflects hidden fears...oh my God, there are cockroaches in it!
-
Reflection of Dreams
Martha
The first mirror to open a mirror shop and find a budding tree is the mirror that reflects desire. Probably not a single troll has bought such a mirror from a mirror maker. It shouldn't be hard to find one in this market. Find it and bring it to me.
You have found a mirror that reflects your desires! Look into it and the mirror will reflect your secret dreams. I see the buds of the tree of life. Yes, it's real. My greatest dream is to bring back the sprouts and protect the spring. What do you see?
-
Happy Moments
Valerie
We need to find out who stole the buds from the tree of life! I only have one more lamp to take to the lighting man. Then he will tell us about the thief. We have to find the lamp that brings happiness! I know why this lamp was stolen from the lighting man.
At least I found a happiness lamp. Let me turn it on for a minute. I'm dying to feel a little happiness! Especially after being cheated by that nasty dream dealer... Wow... I can see why this was stolen from the lighting guy! How did they make this stuff? I'll definitely have to shop here later.
-
Mirrored Movement
Valerie
I know what to look for. A magical clock! If I decided to study time, it would be the first thing I'd collect. It's impossible to carry out experiments on time without a clock, right? And if the experiments are magical, maybe the clock is magical too! Look for a clock, the likes of which we've never seen before. Just be careful, we don't want you turning into a baby!
A clock that goes backwards! Well done! Do you need mor eproof that the laboratory's owner was studying time? I don't know how he was able to turn back time, but he did. A master at his craft, wouldn't you say!
-
Guarantee of Precision
Juliette
Mon ami, if time truly was studied in the laboratory, its owner had to use a clock. Look for some kind of magical time piece. And hurry, I beg you! I just saw the century-old oak near the castle become a young seedling! We need to hurry and understand what kind of place we're in. The City is in danger, and we're on the wrong track?
You did it, mon ami! You have the Floating Tourbillon in your hands. This piece ensures the accuracy of a mechanical clock's motion. But why is it glowing? I'm sure this piece helped the laboratory's owner create a magical clock, which he then used in his studied!
-
Travel Companion
Detective
Did we really find the Laboratory of Time? If this is the same laboratory that the Collector wrote about, the City clearly wants us to finish his investigation. But why? We need to find out if time really was studied here. We've stumbled upon a warehouse of weird artifacts and who knows what. Look for something among the devices related to the study of time, so that we can hopefully understand the purpose of this thing. There are so many kinds of mysterious items all around though... What about an unusual calendar?
Interesting thing you've found, pal. I think it's called "Kepler's Calendar". An old invention that's still in use today, a calendar that fits any year. Clearly this thing was often in use: just look at how worn the discs are! I wonder, how did this calendar help the owner of the Laboratory in time experiments?
-
Fancy Toy
Huntress
I heard that you're collecting dolls for Isabelle. Come on, I'll show you where you can find the Vivian doll. It won't be easy but the doll is so beautiful that it's worth the effort.
Yes, it wasn't easy to get my hands on the Vivian doll. I'm glad that you were around to help me.
-
Shepherd Dolly
Valerie
I know where you can find the Aveline doll. It will definitely cheer Isabelle up and make her forget about her sad childhood. Will you go get it?
The Aveline doll looks like a shepherd with braids and bows... She's so cute that I'd play with her myself!
-
Seal the Vessel
Martha
We need to find the right seal for the vessel. I have lots of them in my laboratory. Bring them here and we can choose.
It's great that you managed to select the right seal so quickly. I'll enchant it too, just in case.
-
Prison for a Demon
Martha
We need a vessel into which to lure the demon. I have it in my lab. Can you bring it, please?
Everything is going well so far. I was given this vessel a long time ago for a service I performed by Marid the Djinn, Lord of the Air. It really is a remarkably reliable vessel.
-
A Drop of Blood
Martha
We need a drop of blood from the one possessed to summon the demon. You need to scratch Cardsharp with something and tell him that you are carrying out vaccinations. Inject him with a vitamin and bring the needle here.
This drop of blood should be enough.
-
Longing for Love
Detective
Next is a lamp that makes you feel longing. At least it's not pain. But then again, longing can drive a person insane. No, it can even kill you. Trolls...let's just get the job done and get out of this place. I don't want to lose my cool and mess up this dangerous place.
Okay, I found the coveted lamp. Just make sure you don't accidentally turn it on! We've already got a bunch of problems because of the lack of tree buds. You can't afford to covet even one of them. I'm trying to stay focused on my frozen city.
-
ray of hope
Valerie
The lighting man says there are lamps that give light to wake up hope in people's souls! It's like waking up in the spring! Such wonderful things can be found at the troll market. The detective is grumpy as usual. Okay, let's go, hurry up and take the lost lamp to the lighting husband!
There it is! It's the lamp of hope. Can I light it for a moment? It's nice to have a little bit of hope that we'll find the buds in the end!
-
Love and Pain
Detective
Love is sometimes painful. You have to find the lamp that causes the pain. What dangerous toys we can buy from these trolls! Fine, the work of the lighting crew is none of our business. We need to find the buds. We'll find a lamp anyway.
So this is the lamp that evokes pain? What a creepy thing. Just holding it makes me uncomfortable. I'd take it away if I had to. It's actually a weapon, after all! Let's go. I need to return this to its rightful owner as soon as possible.
-
The radiance of joy
Valerie
In exchange for helping me get back the stolen tree buds, the lighting husband wants me to get back the five stolen lamps. Once everything is returned, the troll will make a lamp that will inspire love. That's sweet! In return, he will show us where the fingerless thief is hiding. Only a troll would come up with the idea of dividing love into several senses. Ahhh...first we have to find a lamp that evokes joy. That's the first thing you feel when you meet someone you love. Find this special lamp.
There you have it! When I turn on this lamp, it brings me joy. How beautiful! I wonder how it works! May I try it on? Yes! There's something bubbly and tantalizing about it. It's like a glass of champagne! I'll buy this lamp too!
-
Butterfly in the palm of your hand
Juliette
Hey, something terrible is happening in town! The streets are covered in snow and the houses are covered in ice. It's hard to reach you! Please, hurry up and find the buds, or the spring spirit will die. Then we will die too! The last treat I'm taking to the Trolls is a chocolate butterfly. Find it quickly!
It's wonderful! What a beautiful white chocolate butterfly! It must have been hard to get these, but so worth it!
-
Flower bed
Isabelle
I wish I could help. In the spring the birds will come back and the flowers will bloom. I candied the flowers a while ago. They are very tasty. Let's find some for the trolls! With these flowers, any cake would look great. Not to mention the spring dreams he wants to make!
How cute! Candied violets! Mmmm, yummy! This is sure to remind the trolls in the dream shop of spring.
-
Wings of Spring
Detective
Did you notice the dream shop owner staring at the violets and candied fruit? I think he was trying to snatch them out of our hands! I hope he wasn't trying to trick us. I'll keep an eye on him... now let's get back to the story. Isabelle was talking about the birds that come home in the spring. And then I saw a swan. Believe it or not, it's a swan eclair! Bring it to me. That candy will bring back one more memory of spring for the trolls.
You finally found an eclair in the shape of a swan! Well done. This pastry will remind the trolls of spring. By the way, did you know that in some countries it is believed that swans come with spring on their wings?
-
Spring Lightness
Valerie
Do you know the kind of clouds that appear in spring? Winter clouds are heavy and thick, but in spring they become light as a feather! Find those kinds of funny things and help the trolls remember the spring sky! After the troll has created his dream of spring, he'll lead us about our fingerless friend. Then maybe we can find the stolen tree buds. Find the trolls a scarecrow that will remind them of the spring clouds.
Marshmallows! They're light and airy, like spring clouds! Well done! I'm taking these to my dream vendor. I'm sure he'll love it. Oh, this never-ending winter is making me forget spring too...
-
Pine Protection
Kira Woodville
I need to prepare the wound-healing infusion from cones in order to quickly deal with... let's say, work-related injuries. For the infusion, various cones are needed, so I rely on your help. Find some green pinecones.
You found the green pinecones. They're this color immediately after flowering, when they are filled to the maximum with useful substances. Rumor has it that they even protect against negative energies. But I personally value their ability to strenghten bloold vessels above all else.
-
Prayers in the Smoke
Martha
You found the lantern in the form of an incense tower. Decorate the alley at the Emperor's Palace with it, so that the citizens' prayers for the protection of the City will fly to the heavens!
-
Dangerous Dreams
Martha
So you're telling me this isn't just a candy shop, it's a "sweet dream shop"? It smells like delicious chocolate, marzipan, and cake... but you know what, don't eat it. If you eat it, you'll dream. And you can't stop dreaming. Find an artifact to distract you.
Now you understand that the "sweet dreamer" is dangerous. Next you go inside and ask about the thief with the missing finger. I hope the dream dealer knows where the thief is... Spring is almost here and we still haven't found the buds from the tree he stole. We must catch the thief as soon as possible.
-
Sense of Orange
Juliette
We just need to remind them of spring so the dreamers can make spring dreams, right? That way, we can find the buds on the trees, right? Hey, let's look for sweets that remind us of the warmth of spring! The first thing spring reminds me of is sunshine. We'll look for sweets that remind us of the sun!
Candied fruit! That's a good idea. They sparkle like sunshine. I'll take these to the dream dealer. I hope the other candies are easy to find... and the thief, too. It's not good for the buds to be so far from the magic forest.
-
three sides of a lie
Valerie
Coming soon! The watchmaker wants you to bring him a mask with three faces. The masks have the faces of sadness, joy, and anger. The watchmaker said something about how everyone in the world wears a mask... can you find one? We're just a few steps away from the bud-thief!
What a creepy mask! So creepy... and the watchmaker looks kind of sad... why did he say we all wear masks? Let's go to him! We're not just here for the tree buds, we want to help him!
-
spiderweb of deception
Detective
The troll wants you to find a pair of "deceptive nose glasses". Its lenses are covered in silvery cobwebs. Come on, buddy. With those nose glasses, I can get close to the guy who stole the sprouts from the Tree of Life! If only I could figure out why the watchmaker wants all these items!
Let me see! I don't like these nose glasses at all... they say some trolls are after the human soul, kindness, and youth. And many of their items have some kind of secret in them. These nose glasses are a symbol of deception. You have to be careful. Trolls are cunning devils and can easily deceive us.
-
the wages of sin
Detective
The watchmaker wants you to find the feather of the goddess Mart. It's a symbol of the Egyptian goddess of justice. The Egyptians believed that a righteous soul was lighter than a feather...hmmm, if the troll wants the feather in exchange for information on the thief, let's find it.
You've found your mart feathers! It is said that in the marketplace of trolls you can find anything your heart desires. But trolls often make you do something bad in exchange for gold. Speaking of Mart's feather, didn't it mean immediate recompense for your sins?
-
Ominous Transfiguration
Cardsharp
Stopped by the time shop and asked the owner about his next find. He told me to look for his somatrope. It's a toy disk with a different picture on each side. If you turn it quickly, you can see the two pictures as one... The watchmaker's somatrope has a picture of a man on one side and a troll on the other, he said. Find it.
My friend, you found it well! But what an interesting toy it is. On one side is a troll and on the other is a human being. If you spin it, the two become one... that's something, isn't it? Well, that's just speculation.
-
Stolen Spring
Valerie
The troll is asking you to find his lost hourglass. It's a unique hourglass, but instead of sand, it has a dead tree in it. What a funny hourglass... can you find it? Why does the watchmaker need it? Anyway, I have to give it back to him! At least it's for the tree buds.
You found it! Wow, so this is the hourglass you were looking for, huh? There's a dead tree inside. It looks exactly like the tree in the middle of the market square! Martha said the troll market is out of time. They don't visit here in the spring. Look around, you won't believe this...
-
Mysterious Ritual
Martha
It's a good thing Detective, Mayor, Huntress, Juliette and you all agreed to help. Sit at the five points of the pentagram, then we'll carry out the exorcism ritual. Could you please bring me the manuscript with the ritual text from my library?
Be quick and copy this text so everyone has one. We'll read it out loud at the same time.

Magic Ribbon
Martha
You've described a complex task. It seems that Cardsharp has had the curse of Avarice put upon him. I don't want to come to conclusions too quickly. I can carry out a ritual to find out what it is we're facing, but I'll need some of Cardsharp's personal possessions, like his cards, belt or top hat. If that is impossible, at least the ribbon from his top hat will do.
You did it. Wow! This is no simple ribbon; it has different colour magical symbols on it. They eithersignify a clan membership or the status of the owner. Ecxcellent, let's callu pon the astral powers.

Special Architecture
Lady
I almost forgot - we should check the wagtails' house! Just as I thought, it was also blown down by the harsh winter wind. These funny birds need a special nest structure - their long tails don't allow them to dive into a house mid-flight. Try to find a house with a porch.
Where did you find this house with such a wonderful porch? I was sure that I checked everywhere here... Now we can patch it up, and my favorite wagtails will have a place to return to after wintering.

Mediterranean Charm
Valerie
The connection is obvious: the Italian artist created an Italian-themed painting, Adeline searched for it in Italy and ended up in the City along with the Italian Patio... Ugh, what a mess. It's obviously time to enter this Italian Patio and find out the truth. Let's go! Follow me! I mean... After you!
The Patio is like an Italian fairy tale! No wonder it inspired Giovanni di Fiori to paint his masterpiece. Just like in Adeline's sketch! Look, there's even some coffee waiting for us in the street cafe. Ugh... It's rather bland. And the coachman? Hey, mister! Everything here is so... lifeless.

Animated Room
Isabelle
I feel an extraordinary flow of energy through the slightly open door. It's as if the space within the Secret Room changes every second! Let's muster our courage and enter. I want to see the legend with my own eyes. And we must save Juliette!
The Secret Room's unusual items remind me both of a detective's and a scientist's office. There is something sinister about it... But I believe that the Secret Room is our ally. And our only chance to save Juliette before it's too late.

faithful dog (Hachiko)
Detective
Training animals... great idea. Icy is pretty smart. I had a colleague who used to train dogs in New York and you said he never failed you. Nicholas needs a dog. Why don't we find him a cute puppy?
Buddy, look at this snow terrier's dark, dull eyes! She's still little, but when she grows up, she'll be able to sniff out any monster or spirit. I'm sure Nokolas will train him well.
-
Starlings' Home
Lady
Just as I thought, the starlings' home was also blown down by a blizzard. These smart and sociable birds must have a home to return ot after wintering. Let's look for a wooden birdhouse.
It's so wonderful that you found the wooden birdhouse! We just need to patch up the roof a little, and it'll be ready to be hung back on the tree. My lovely starlings won't be left without a house when they return from the Forest of Spirits!
-
Daytime Shelter
Lady
You found the fallen owl dwelling! Now madam Hoot - the name I gave the owl who lived in this house - will have a place to return to after wintering in the Forest of Spirits.
-
Chatterbox's Home
Lady
I definitely remember that last year, a charming parrot's nest hung here. I taught it to distinguish between different styles of dish painting. Let's look for its coconut nest, which was blown down by the wineter wind!
Thank you for finding the coconut nest - it really was blown down by a bizzard. Now we need to fix it, and hang it in the garden back in its former place. Then my talkative parrot friend will be provided a house and have no problem returning after its wintering!
-
House under the Roof
Lady
There isn't a single bird who'd want to return to a ruined nest! Let's restore the birds' nests so they have a place to return to after wintering. Let's start by finding a wicker nest: the tits above my window lived in one.
You found the wicker nest! It looks like a basket of various sized twigs. I'll hang it in its old spot, and my little neighboring tits will have a place to return to after wintering in the Forest of Spirits.
-
Fifth Ingredient
Mistress
Alright... Now bring me a bottle of spirits... And never mind your facetious remarks! I don't need whiskey! I'm not planning to drink it, but to use it as a solvent! Fool...
Wonderful. We have all the ingredients. Why are you looking so expectant? Waiting for tips? Ha ha ha!

Benefits of nuts
Kira Woodville
You are very good at looking for ball fruit. Speaking of which, we also need a ball fruit with a delicious nut inside. It is something that is in the nanyousgi, and if I can find even one nanyousgi in this city, I can get the ball fruit.
Thank you for finding the ball fruit with the well ripened nuts inside. I could not find them alone! The bulbous fruit of nanyosugi keeps the skin and joints healthy. If you add this to your decoction, it will not only help with wounds, but will also strengthen your body overall.
-
Healthy shades
Kira Woodville
My mother taught me how to make this decoction. My mother called it "ball fruit wound medicine. I hope to see my mother again someday when I leave this city... Regardless, I must make a decoction for future trouble. Next time, bring me the purple fir ball fruit.
That's what I'm talking about. I was looking for this purple ball fruit! This color means that this bulbous fruit is young and contains a lot of valuable ingredients. If we add this to the decoction, it should be effective against bone fractures. Of course, it is better to avoid fractures.
-
indispensable ingredient
Kira Woodville
Did you know that itosugi also has ball fruits? They are small in size but very precious. It is perfect for finishing a decoction for wounds. I saw a street lined with Itosugi in town. If you go there, you may be able to find the bulbous fruit.
I am glad you found the bulb fruits of itosugi! I am sure adding them to the decoction will enhance its efficacy. The bulbous fruit of the cedar is good for cuts and bruises. In addition, it is said to strengthen the nervous system and is very valuable.
-
the flower is always sweeter than the flower
Kira Woodville
The decoction also requires the bulbous fruit of the larch tree. It is so beautiful in addition to being good for you that it is even called the "Arctic rose. When you see the pink bulbous fruit of the larch, you will surely understand how appropriate this name is.
The larch ball fruit really looks like a flower. But they have such wonderful benefits that can't be compared to roses! I would much rather receive a bouquet of roses than a larch, which has excellent analgesic and hemostatic properties.

Technical Approach
Isabelle
One day, my professor asked me to try out his latest invention. It was a fox that tracked anomalous phenomena. Unfortunately, the animal's nature got in the way and it didn't listen to me at all. Maybe Nicholas can handle it better. Let's look for this high-tech fox together. Where did he go?
Thanks, that helped me find the fox. Let's get him moving! Look, it's wagging its tail like a dog. Real foxes don't do that! I'm sure Nicholas will be able to train him.
-
Winter Diva
Juliette
Nicholas has to overcome the negative effects of the ice. But it's hard to stay positive in a constant snowstorm and gusty winds. And that's when songbirds come in handy... yes, songbirds. I love the chirping of the northern cardinals. Let's catch one for Nicholas.
They are singing happily, aren't they? I'm sure the bird's cheery chirping and bright colors will help you through the sadness. Nicholas could teach this bird a few new songs.
-
Air Transportation
Conductor
We need some good transportation to get to the far north. Santa has his red-nosed reindeer, right? I think Nicholas needs one too. Why don't you train him to fly on a reindeer?
I borrowed Lumika's reindeer from the shed, but I don't think she'll notice. There are plenty of reindeer in the ice palace! I'm sure these reindeer will be useful to Nicholas. Besides, I'm sure even Lumika would gladly offer up a reindeer or two if he would control the crucible for her.
-
Winged guides
Nicholas
I was skeptical when I first heard Icy's suggestion, but it is true that learning about animal training would prevent my mind from being consumed by the ice crystals in the melting pot. I could take a couple of animals with me, so I wouldn't be so alone. I think I'll start by trying to tame a winged ptarmigan. Can you give me a hand with that?
Here, hurry up and catch it! What a quick little rabbit! You almost got away from me. The rabbit helps travelers stranded in blizzards and icy deserts to avoid getting lost. I will teach this little rabbit how to find and save travelers who have lost their way.
-
Remember Everything
Lumica
I know how important it is to remember every day that you're not alone in order to not let ice crystals into your heart. I will create a special calendar to help Nicholas bear the burden of the Lord of Frost. Bring me some artifacts, I'll use them in my ritual.
-
Fourth Ingredient
Mistress
The scent must be delicate, refined. That means we need some Jasmine Extract... I don't know where to find it! That's your job! You can even make it yourself - there are some flowering jasmine bushes in the City.
Hmm... You didn't bring much Jasmine Extract, but it'll have to do. We'll say you found the fourth ingredient.
-
Third Ingredient
Mistress
Pleased that it's all been so easy so far? Let's see how quickly you find the next ingredient - White Musk. It's a natural substance, which increases attractiveness.
I see you found the White Musk. I must admit, you're not as hopeless as I first thought. We already have most of the perfume ingredients.
-
Second Ingredient
Mistress
The perfume base consists of woody notes. I need some Sandalwood Oil. And don't dawdle!
What? you got the Sandalwood Oil already? At this rate, by nightfall you'll have deprived me of turning Juliette into a toad.
-
First Ingredient
Mistress
We can make my perfume by mixing the necessary ingredients. We'll start with something simple - bring me some Citrus Oil. Well, what are you waiting for? Go!
What are you so pleased about? The Citrus Oil is the most simple and easy to find ingredient. You can't relax yet!
-
Benefits of Chicory
Martha
Bring garden-variety Chicory and squeeze the juice from it. This will be the next ingredient in our secret magic-free recipe to improve vision. All our ingredients are entirely natural. The most important thing is for the Conductor to agree to take them.
I hope you didn't forget to wash the Chicory you found? One must never forget about hygiene. I have no doubts about your good sense.
-
Blueberry Drink
Martha
Last, but not least, is blueberries. It will be useful to you and to the Conductor. Bring some blueberries. Only fresh ones, not frozen. I hope you know where to get them.
You're simply an expert! Where do you find all this? The blueberries that you brought can also be juiced, but personally I prefer the whole berries.
-
Spinach Cocktail
Martha
The next ingredient in the magic-free recipe to improve vision is Spinach. I'll squeeze the juice from these leaves using my own strength.
It's wonderful that you brought so much Spinach. Bring it here. I'll bake a pie using what's left over.
-
Careful Exploration
Juliette
Let's look around the Greenhouse, mon ami. If someone asked for help, we could find them or at least their trail. I doubt the Greenhouse has an emergency exit to leave the building unnoticed. But be careful. If something happened in there, we could be in danger too.
There are many exotic birds and plants in the Greenhouse. I also see various unusual things from different parts of the world. But I can't see anyone who could leave a note with a plea for help. Where could they have gone? I think it's time to call the investigators!
-
Vexatious Blots
Lady Peacock
We couldn't see each other often, so we wrote to one another regularly. I even gave him special peacock feather quills so that the would remember me every time he wrote something. Will you find them?
These peacock feathers were also cursed. Once my beloved started to write me a letter; the feathers were broken, there were blots on the sheet and the ink dried up in the inkwell, Someone really wanted to prevent us from talking.
-
Blackened Stones
Lady Peacock
Something inexplicable started happeneing to my favourite things. I once had a necklace made of Indian gems. My boyfriend said it made me more beautiful than the dawn. Look for it in the Hotel and I'll tell you what happened.
This perfect necklace is the skillful creation of Indian craftsmen. Its gems are lustrous; yet almost overnight, most of the gems became black. As if something filled the gems with black anger and envy.
-
Following the Fiery Trail
Isabelle
As soon as I reached the steps to Jack's Tower, I felt the resence of an ancient entity. It's time we go upstairs and find out the source of this sinister flame. Be careful Halloween is a restless time when danger and fun go hand in hand!
We discovered a magical clock floating in the magic currents at the top of the Tower. That's the source of the fiery flashes that frightened the townsfolk. Look! The clock's hands are moving slower and slower... For some reason, I don't even want to think about what happenes when they stop.
-
Dry Flowers
Lady Peacock
I belived nothing could stop our love. However strange troubles continued. Once, my beloved and I bought a vase in an antique Indian shop. Find it somewhere in the Hotel.
This Indian Vase is beautiful, isn't it? However, we soon discovered that the flowers in it withered very quickly. In just a day, the blossoming bouquet turned in dry and lifeless.
-
Broken Jewel
Lady Peacock
My beloved once gave me a wonderful box, adorned with a peacock made of precious stones; but unfotrunately a sad fate awaited this gift. You'll see for yourself when you find it.
This elegant Peacock Box is itself a jewel. I took great care of this token. Imagine my disapointement when I discovered that the box was broken. It was as if someone wanted to take my most precious possession away from me.
-
Broken Couple
Lady Peacock
After the ill-fated ball, where my beloved and I first saw the Mistress of the Manor, strange things started happeneing to us. Our gifts to each other, letters, any symbols of love were lost, broken of spoiled. For example, a pair of handmade wine glasses. Find them and you'll see for yourself.
I gave these handmade glasses to my beloved so that he'd always remember me. One of the wine glasses broke in less than a week. It was as if something prevented them from being together.
-
Troll Nature
Agvid Hanson
I decided not to give up and went looking for the box with the stolen energy. When I found out that the nature spirits had already appointed a new gatekeeper, I was furious. I even stole the triquetra they presented to the newcomer. Here, take it, I return what was stolen!
-
Cold in the Heart
Agvid Hanson
I didn't purposefully kill these Campaunula flowers by turning them into dead glass. Back then, I didn't know that a troll's touch is fatal to plants. So the nature spirits, not seeing any warmth in my heart, drove me away.
-
A Blow Below the Belt
Mistress
I don't want to frighten you, but I think I'm finally aboe to achieve my goal. The odd couple, Lady Peacock and her admirer, challenged my magical abilities, so I was left with only one option... Bring me the ring and I'll tell you a secret.
This ring has a secret hiding place, and in it, there is an odourless and tasteless powder. It causes an unfailing love attaction; but that stubborn Englishman was not affected in the slightest!
-
Eloquent Gestures
Mistress
I decided to attact Lady Peacock's companion. So I started giving him tokens of attention, using the language of the fan. It always worked smoothly, especially since my fan is enchanted. Bring it to me.
Here's my magical fan! Unfortunately the young Englishman was immune to my charm. It was the first time my advances remained unanswered. I also observed that the officer and Lady Peacock barely spoke during the ball and didn't even dance.
-
Intoxicating Aroma
Mistress
Until now, no man could resist my charms, but Lady Peacock's companion was out of my control. I decided to use a perfume made by a special perfumer. Its flavour is able to deprive his mind. Find it and you'll soon see.
Here it is - the Perfume iwth a special fragrance. This fragrance conquered all except Lady Peacock's companion. There was no one for him but her and I noticed that the feeling was mutual.
