-
Fifth Piece
Huntress
One last item remains... the armoured glove. I can't say that a different fate awaited its wearer. This glove is the only piece of the poor man's armour that remained intact.
Perfect, we have the last item we need - the armoured glove. Now we'll see if the old legends lie or speak the truth.
-
A Terrible Fate
Huntress
The werewolf leader flew into a rage from being tricked. The frightened Mayor asked a blacksmith to create a heavy-duty breastplate for protection; but as you've no doubt already guessed, by morning both the blacksmith and the breastplate had disappeared. The breastplate must be somewhere around here.
Look, there's a trace of dried blood on this breastplate! I fear it was unable to protect the poor blacksmith from his terrible fate.
-
An Unsuccessful Trap
Huntress
In revenge, the Mayor decided to poison the werewolf leader. He made a trap with a cup full of poison and spread the rumour that there was a potion in the cup that could turn any werewolf back into a human. By morning, the cup had gone, but no one had seen the thief. Find this cup.
I suspected that the werewolf leader may have stolen the cup, but that the poison didn't harm him. This empty cup proves it!
-
A Silver Mockery
Huntress
The second item is a silver medallion. It displays a portrait of the Mayor's mother. The werewolf leader created it to mock the Mayor. Why would it mock him, you ask? Because it was made from the silver bullets with which the citizens tried to kill the werewolf leader.
The Mayor has promised many times to reward the person who takes the medallion from the leader. Well. if we're going to get the crown, why not give the old ghost a nice surprise?
-
Restless Diamond
Isabelle
We must find all the missing cards from the Deck of Images urgently. After all, they could change a person's fate! Most of all, I'm worried about Valerie. I think she corresponds to the Queen of Diamonds. Look for this card where this restless person loves to be.
Great! You were able to find the Queen of Diamonds from the Deck of Images and, it's true, she has Valerie's face. We made it just in time before anything bad happened to her. What sinister magic these cards have!
-
Strong Spade
Juliette
All right, I'll give back the Deck of Images since they're dangerous. I hope Martha makes the Mistress forget about her favourite cards. But other queens from the deck are also lost. I divined on Valerie, the Huntress and Isabelle Well, it's interesting which of them are near the heart. It seems that now they're all under threat. Find Isabelle's card. I saw her on the Queen of Spades.
Monsieur, I'm so glad you found the Queen of Spades! And it's true: the queen on the card is Isabelle's double! I hope my divination didn't bring harm to her.
-
The Search Begins!
Detective
Why are you hanging around outside the Hotel's gates? Come on, get in, quickly. Pay attention to anything that could be connected with the ink rain: puddles, drops, stains and streaks.
Strike me down! If the Hotel has been long-abandoned, where are the traces of desolation? It seems someone is living in the Hotel; I'd even say it's a woman! It's no accident that all these hats, scarves and handbags are scattered everywhere.
-
New Discoveries
Valerie
Take me with you to tke Yard of Forgotten Toys! I'm sure it's full of secrets and mysteries, not just broken toys!
Hooray! We finally made it into the Yard of Forgotten Toys. Look how many toys there are. Too bad they're all broken. Look around carefully - there hasn't been anyone here for a while. It's so interesting to be the first ones here in the whole existence of the City of Shadows.
-
Terrible Evidence
Huntress
The first item is a knight's helmet. Once, a knight disappeared in the City after loudly declaring that no werewolf could ever defeat him. No one saw his face because he never took his helmet off. But the next day, the knight disappeared, and the werewolf leader was seen wearing his helmet.
This helmet is yet more proof that the werewolf leader should never be understimated.
-
Cunning Joker
Juliette
The first card that disappeared from the Mistress' deck was the Joker. It told me it wasn't needed so I put it aside; but then it was gone. Find this Joker, mon ami!
Where did you find this Joker?! I looked all around. Oh, look at his face! It's the spitting image of Cardsharp. Strange... Earlier this card looked different. Let's go see Martha.
-
Sharp Eyesight
Conductor
I think I know what's missing - the mechaical Gargoyle has no eyes. Find them, please.
I hope this is the last part we need for making the gargoyle.
-
The Monster's Heart
Conductor
What will we do next? What parts of the metal Gargoyle are we missing? I guess we now need to find the heart. It's just aguess, though.
The Collector made such a beautiful heart for his mechanical Gargoyle! Well then, let's try to put it together and see what happens. Hmm... It seems that everything has been correctly assembled and we dind't mix anything up, but the Gargoyle still isn't moving. It won't even blink...
-
Above the Clouds
Conductor
Judging by the body you found, we're assembling a metal gargoyle. I don't even have to look at the diagram to tell you that we must also find a pair of wings. What kind of Gargoyle doesn't have wings?
That's strange. The wings are not metallic. I shouldn't have called our bird a metal Gargoyle.
-
Fortified Torso
Conductor
I don't think that the bird that we're collecting parts for will be aggressive. The Collector never created monsters, isn't that right? Also, this part of the diagram looks like the body of a bird, not a griffin. can you find an Armoured Torso like that?
I think that these Claws and Armoured Body look like parts for a metallic gargoyle.
-
Sharp Claws
Conductor
I looked through some of the stuff at the Station and found a strange diagram for some sort of bird. We have already seen something similar - do you remember the diagram of the Collector's robot? Now he's provided us with a new mystery! The Latin numeral V is drawn here too. I think we will need to find five parts of this creature. If you look at the diagram carefully, those lines look like claws. Maybe you can try to find them somewhere?
Wow! Those are some big claws! Greek griffins probably had similar ones. Maybe it's a griffin on the diagram, not a bird? We'll put it together and watch it come to life and start running around the City, just like the robot.
-
Charming Cobras
Cardsharp
We're done with the assassins' weapons. All we need to find now is a few things for the spell. For example, a Snake Charmer's Pipe. Can you find one?
Keep this cobra in your possession. I can hold the pipe. I'll need to use it later.
-
Strike from a Distance
Cardsharp
I have another clue. Bladed weapons weren't all the assassins had at their disposal. Bows and arrows were often the only way they could complete their mission, so they always kept them on their person.
A bracer and glove and of course, a bow and arrows... With a kit like this, a warrior can keep the enemy far away from them. But a weapon like that is no good to me at a card table.
-
Hidden Blade
Cardsharp
Now we must find an assassin's sword - the Devil's Claw. A useful thing indeed, let me tell you. Especially when your opponent at the table is being uncooperative.
What an awesome deadly weapon. This hidden blade is called the Devil's Claw for a reason. I wouldn't mind learning how to use it... You know, just in case.
-
Assassin's Belt
Cardsharp
The assassin's outfit always included a Red Belt. Do you know where to find one like that?
The red colour of the belt denoted a high-rank assassin. Low-ranking assassins couldn't use magic and were only students, so their belts were white or grey.
-
Assassin's Cloak
Cardsharp
You're so impatient, my friend. I won a secret - I was told a legend about a group of assassins that knew how to control fog. This allowed them to move unseen. But fog in the City of Shadows is special - it carries relics! If I can control it, all these treasures will be mine! Or ours, if you agree to help me that is. We need to find the assassins' clothing, then the fog will submit to us! The first item is a White Cloak - find it.
The assassins were a clan of eastern warriors. Using a cloak like this one, they could disguise themselves as monks, warriors or peasants and be indistinguishable from those around them.
-
Gladiator Dog
Cardsharp
I'm probably going to need a Mastiff as well. They're a lgendary breed of dog whose career began back in the era of Alexander the Great. The Romans saw fighting potential in these dogs. They dressed them in armour and used them as gladiators in the arenas, pitting them against bears, tigers and lions. Will you try and find one for me?
I didn't believe before that the English Mastiff was the largest breed of dog on the planet, but now I see it. It's no wonder these dogs were used to form battle units. They truly are invincible in armour.
-
Loyal Friend
Cardsharp
I'd be so happy if you could find a Pit Bull Terrier. These dogs are infinitely loyal, have a happy temperament and are very sociable.
Wonderful! This brown Pit Bull Terrier is a very clever and loyal dog.
-
Sheepherder
Cardsharp
Please find another breed of dog - the Anatolian Shepherd. In their homeland of Turkey, these dogs are used to protect villages from wild predators.
The Anatolian Shepherd is considered a national treasure in Turkey. The people there build a monument to these dogs in gratitude for their protection.
-
Decorating the Pedestal
Cardsharp
I see some recesses in the base of the pedestal. Another decoration was placed here - an amulet with the heart of an animal. Where could it be?
Oh, it's the Lion's Heart Amulet! With this in the pedestal, the statue will look as good as new!
-
Decorating the Statue
Cardsharp
According to the sculpture's vision, there were three beautiful crystals made of quartz arranged around the statue. Without them, she'll look pretty poor, don't you think?
These are fine quartz crystals! The girl's statue will be surrounded by them as if in a flower.
-
Base of the Statue
Cardsharp
The statue must be placed on its own pedestal. It must have been reused a long time ago - I don't see it anywhere around here. Could you please find the pedestal?
Are you sure this is the right pedestal? We can't afford a mistake here, otherwise this fine statue will be unsteady, and my restoration efforts will be wasted.
-
Bear Hunter
Cardsharp
For variety, I suggest finding a dog from Japan. How about an Akita Inu? This dog was even used to hunt bears. But don't worry, the dogs won't bother obedient customers.
In the land of the rising sun, the Akita Inu is considered a symbol of loyalty, and every Japanese child dreams of having such a puppy as a friend.
-
Trained Guard Dog
Cardsharp
Many people have become envious of me recently. On top of that, monsters are constantly wandering around outside the cafe and scaring customers. You need peace and quiet for good gambling, you know. So I've had an idea - I want to get a few well-trained guard dogs. They'll be albe to drive away the little monsters and envious people. Please could you find a few fearless hounds? I hear Central Asian Shepherds make good guard dogs.
What a great dog! Did you know that Central Asian Shepherds have been used since ancient times to protect farmland and flocks of sheep in Central Asia? they really live up to my expectations.
-
Head of a Beauty
Cardsharp
According to my informant, the Statue's Head is with the Wanderers. We need to take a risk and try to barter for it.
The Statue's Head sits perfectly on the torso where it broke off. The damage requires hardly any restoration.
-
Marble Body
Cardsharp
I've decided to restore an ancient City statue that was broken long ago, single-handedly and at my own expense! I saw it the other day. It's just gathering dust in the garden at City Hall. Could you obtain the Statue7s Torso for me?
Such incredible craftsmanship! What barbarian could have broken such a beautiful statue?
-
The Vice of Avarice
Isabelle
The Chain of Vices wouldn't be complete without the Demon of Avarice. Yes, you understood me correctly - carelessness, envy, pride and deception give birth to avarice, and avarice leads to anger, aggression, fear of losses and hatred. I can't even imagine what the city could turn into under the influence of this demon. It seems that the citizens don't want to help you yet again, so you only have yourself to count on in your search for the key to the chains of the Demon of Avarice.
If we have the key to the Demon of Avarice's chain and the demon chained up, we can start the ritual to receive the Lock of Virtue.
-
Sacred Resonator
Monk
To banish the monster back to the world of demons, I'll use the sacred knowledge and fill the magic octagon with the energy of life. Combined with some firecrackers, it will amplify the explosion's sound, making it thunderous. The Professor said it's a resonator, take a look.
The union of a magic resonator and firecrackers should terrify the monste who's doomed to fear loud sounds. We only need to set off the explosion next to it.
-
Cheating and Lying
Isabelle
The next on the list is the Demon of Deception. We had too much of this vice in our City even without him - just look at Cardsharp! But if this demon gets all the citizens in its power, we'll be in trouble. Make every effort to catch it and find the keys to the chains that shackle it.
I bet you caught the Demon of Deception somewhee near Cardsharp - he's a real personification of this vice. Hurry up and use the key to lock its chains! To be honest, I would chain up Cardsharp by its side - the City would be much calmer and the local citizens would have less of a headache.
-
Inventing the Wheel
Professor
Are you assembling a noisy charge that can scare the monster and banish it through the Moon Gate back to the world of demons? I propose that we make bigger firecrackers, fix them on a wheel and launch it at the monster. I put together a prototype, but it rolled away. Did you see where it went?
Tank you for returning my blasting wheel. I still need to work on its trajectory, but in general, the device is promising. And very noisy!
-
Onslaught from the Skies
Mei
Yui's ready to blow up her firecrackers right in front of the monster, but I'm thinking about how to avoid our ancestor's sad fate. In order to banish the monster and remain safe, I'm planning to use this firecracker kite. The wind's taken it away, catch it!
This kite will deliver its firecrackers directly to the monster, while we take cover. But can it carry the kind of charge to generate a noise thunderous enough to make the monster flee?
-
Explosive Attack
Yui
We have a chance to banish the monster with loud sounds, and I won't miss this opportunity! Preparing for the war with Mei, I used to make explosive charges - not only destructive but also very noisy. They should be amongst my arms, help me find them.
I planned to blow these firecrackers in the thick of battle to stun the enemy soldiers. But a monster may need a larger charge.
-
A Lot of Noise
Detective
We'll finally get rid of the monster and drive it away with a roar! For me, the prospect of constantly wearing red was hardly inspiring... By the way, I recently confiscated a roll of firecrackers from some suspicious newbies. It could come in handy for the monster's noisy banishment. Now, where did I put it? Buddy, help me find it.
There are at least fifty firecrackers in this roll! They're quite small though. I'm not sure they'll make enough noise to make the monster flee, but we can try.
-
Defensive Cloth
Monk
The monster is facing more and more red decorations, rushing around the City in fear. We can drive it even farther away from the houses by using red amulet flags. Look for one - we'll place it at the beginning of the street so that the monster can't reach the crowded quarters.
The amulet flags flutter in the wind, driving the monster away with the gleaming red color it fears. But we still need to come up with more reliable protection for the City.
-
Window Protection
Mei
It's a great idea to protect houses with red decorations that will scare away the monster. Using the jianzhi technique, my mother and I once made a scarlet window paper-cut in the form of her patron, the Tiger. I've been carrying it with me as a memento, but lost it in the heat of battle with the monster. Help me find it.
Thank you, this is the paper-cut I was looking for! Such red jianzhi patterns, glued on the windows, will save the City's houses and the residents they shelter.
-
Important Accessory
Juliette
Ah, mon ami, I'm so glad that we've discovered a way to protect everyone from the monster! In the Manor, I found a red dress to wear for safety. I think I see a red fan over there. Would you be so kind to bring it? It will complement my outfit perfectly.
Wow, this fan seemed smaller from afar but it's actually large and decorative. We'd better hang it on the wall to scare the monster away from the Manor.
-
Braided Charm
Monk
The City feels threatened and is trying to defend itself: I saw a mystical knot, braided with red threads, appear nearby. It will scare off the monster. Bring me this scarlet knot, and I will use it as a sample and make a few more to protect the citizends.
Thank you! The mystical knot of red threads is a powerful amulet against the monster who, by the deity's will, now fears shades of scarlet.
-
Cinnabar from the Past
Yui
The Vermilion Bird's curse worked: the monster has recoiled from my red armor! Now we can protect the City and its inhabitants with lots of red items. I used to make bracelets of cinnabar - or "dragon's blood". Let's find the brightest one.
This scarlet bracelet made of cinnabar will become an amulet against the monster, as it's afraid of red thanks to my divine paton's will. Put it on!
-
Ancient Clue
Detective
My gut tells me we're one step away from the solution. To understand why the monster was able to scramble through the Moon Gate using the invitation sent to the princesses' parents, we need to find an important clue. Help me inspect the area where the ancient helmet was. Don't be surprised, buddy, but we're looking for blood.
We found exactly what we needed - a blood sample! It's pertified, but it's good enough to check my theory. I'll take it to Martha.
-
Withness of Stone
Monk
If the legend is true and the hero of the imperial line did defeat the monster, we'll find a guarding tablet preventing the banished monster's return. Perhaps the tablet had collapsed, and this resulted in its appearance? Is there a tablet nearby?
You found a guarding tablet: it means that the princesses' distant ancestor defeated the monster and it shouldn't have returned. But the beast is here. What kind of power helped it?
-
Familiar Armor
Mei
I haven't come across the champion's statuette, but in the heat of battle, I did see a helmet at the Moon Gate. I thought that it must've slipped off Yui's head, but she was still wearing all of her armor. This helmet seems familiar to me... I hope it will help us understand the reason for the monster's appearance. Bring it, please.
I remember where I saw this helmet! A drawing in the collection of legends. It was worn by one ruler in time immemorial... And he was of our kind!
-
Beast's Image
Detective
Is this beast armored or something? How did the antique champion defeat it? Or maybe this isn't the monster mentioned in the prophecy? We have to figure it out to find the reason for the beast's appearance! I saw an old monster statuette around here somewhere. Buddy, help me find it, we'll compare them.
Buddy, look, this is a statuette of the monster! Since the City moved this antiquity here, maybe we'll come across the chanpion's image, too. It would be interesting to look at.
-
We have a long history
Isabelle
It's an old story... My childhood was not normal. I lived completely alone in a room with a floor-to-ceiling window. Every morning I saw a different view from the window as if the room had moved. I couldn't open the door and was there years. I had everything necessary for life - water and fresh food, which appeared every morning, books, paints... Those memories - I need some fresh air!
Thanks, I feel better. I wasn't completely alone in that room. There were different anomalies but I wasn't scared; amused more like. they made the routine days bearable. Then I was woken one night by a puff of wind and saw the door ajar! I ran out but when I turned around there was just a blank wall. I was both happy and scared, but I could go wherever I wanted! Now I worry that someone else may be locked in that room.
-
Hopeless Battle
Monk
The beast came to the City along the road intended for the imperial couple. We need to find and eliminate what led it here, then we'll be able to banish the monster. Otherwise, the princesses won't be able to defeat the beast no matter how bravely they fight. Look, a fallen blade - Yui's weapon has broken. Bring it.
Yui's broken guandao confirms the ancient prophecy: conventional weapons are powerless against this monster. I heard the Detective shoot too, but it had no effect.
-
Keeping Calm
Yui
Mei prepared the guiding incense and entrusted me to make a magical pattern from it in the incense stencil. She understands that I'm worried, and this process helps you calm down. Please take a look at the result of my work - is it good enough?
This incense pattern has begun to emit fragrant smoke! So the divine patrons approve our efforts. Oh, am I really going to meet my parents...?
-
Beautiful stranger
Isabelle
I'm glad to see you, Detective. I came here to find you, but once I entered the cafe, a fight started with a dozen beasts... The most awful thing is that they're almost invisible! I study such phenomena, but this was... for the first time... (Isabelle is so weak she sways) I'm sorry, I'm too tired... Could you bring me some water?
Hot sweet tea - even better than water. Thank you, I don't think we've met before. I apologize, it's so rude of me. My name is Isabelle, nice to meet you!
-
Dangerous Gin
Valerie
Who's that? Oh, it's you... I drank a little too much, yesterday. I dropped in on the Conductor at the Station and he seemed sad... He's a strong man, sure, but the City can depress anyone. So we chatted a little over a bottle of gin... and, believe it or not, it's now morning, but I still can't shake the cobwebs out! You won't believe this, it's so funny: I walked into City Hall and started seeing double, like everything was all twisted around. I really need an earring I lost there yesterday. What am I to do?
I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who can't see straight! So it wasn't because of the gin, huh? I shouldn't have told you about drinking yesterday; now you'll think I'm some kind of drunk! You don't? Well, that's great! Thanks for understanding. I'm sorry for distracting you from your important business.
-
Special Technique
Yui
My sister and I are creating a special composition for the incensing so that our parants can find their way to the Moon Gate. In such a ritual, everything matters, and the aromatic powder should be poured into the incense burner using a special stencil. Please find it.
Oh, you were cleary led by higher powers! You've found the most suitable stencil for our aromatic composition - with the Vermilion Bird's and the Azure Dragon's silhouettes.
-
Imperial Anomaly
Isabelle
The entire imperial Palace is a powerful and, perhaps, dangerous anomaly. We need to find out what petrified all these creatures and even the flames of the lamps. Let's go inside and find the source of the magic that struck the palace!
the throne room, the holiest place in the imperial Palace. Just look at all these beautiful and expensive things! They look like gifts for New Year, but the treasures were scattered in the heat of battle. The heart of the anoaly that turned everyone to stone is here. I feel a clear threat. And on the throne sits... Oh, it's the Emperor himself! There's a raggedy scroll at his feet...
-
Pagoda in the Mountains
Detective
Buddy, I arrived as soon as I could. Look, the outline of a Chinese Pagoda is appearing in the fog. Wow, what's that huge thing towering above it? Is that what I think it is? Look, the fog is dissipating, giving us a path. Let's get closer and look around.
Whoa! The Dragon is rising above the Pagoda! It will turn the fragile building into a mountain of rubble! Or not. Buddy, this Dragon doesn't roar, and doesn't move! Everything here has become motionless. Even the magnolias swept up in the wind have become frozen! Just in time, though! Look, the Monk is coming towards us! Maybe he'll be able to explain the situation?
-
Offering to the Temple
Cardsharp
There you are! I see that you're heading into the Temple. Do you think it can protect us? Are you sure? Then hurry and get inside, or the dragon will catch us!
Sir, look at the dragon! Run fast before it notices us! What? Phew, it's only a statue... Why are you smiling? You think the prophecy is actually a joke? Don't be a skeptic. It's entirely possible that this statue will come to life and fly to plunder and burn. In the City of Shadows, such a sthing hasn't happened...
-
Tree of Perfumers
Mei
The Azure Dragon gave me the gift of growing plants, and I used it to grow an aquilaria. It's the main ingredient in the incense that will pave the way from the land of lost souls, as it's wood is very fragrant. Let's collect a little.
Thank you, now we have enough aromatic wood. I've ground it into powder and added a drop of my blood to address the incensing to my parents.
-
Crucial Base
Yui
I can't wait to see my parents, but I must contain myself, as rushing is inappropriate for the ritual. We need to prepare the base for lying out the aromatic composition by carefully squeezing the ashes in the incense burner. Please bring me a special press.
This weighty press has a smooth sole that will help me create a flat surface from the ashes in the incense burner. Each of my movements brings the meeting with our parents closer!
-
Aroma Receptacle
Mei
Your search skills are invaluable! This capacious bronze incense burner will become the beacon that will lead our parents through the Moon Gate to the City.
-
Path to the Unknown
Valerie
Wow, the gate looks even cooler up close, and the moonlight goes right through it, fantastic! You just want to stroll along the lunar path and across the bridge to the pagodas! It's beautiful and calm here: everything's frozen, like in a magical dream. Why do the princesses worry, anyway?
-
Sentient Phone Book
Martha
The Phone Book is supposed to help you find the right number. an owl-shaped amulet was responsible for this useful function. It would be great if you could find it. Otherwise all our efforts will be in vain.
The owl amulet will help with who we need to talk to in the real world.
-
Special Bookmark
Martha
It looks like a conjurer needed the Phone Book. But what for? Let's have a look at what else has been damaged. There's no Bookmark. It's been torn out. We really need your quick thinking here.
You've found the Bookmark for the Phone Book! It isn't even damaged. It looks like luck is on your side.
-
Broken Lock
Martha
Someone broke off the lock on the Bindings as they couldn't open it O tempora, o mores! Even a Phone Book bothers some people. It seems like even a small thing like a locking clasp needs to be found.
What was the point of breaking the lock on the folio? Didn't they believe the writing that said, "Phone Book"? Or did they believe it and needed to look for something?
-
Leather Binding
Martha
It looks like the Phone Book was torn to pieces. You'll have to go to some effort in your searches. Start with the largest piece - the Binding. It's made of leather with copper filigree and a locking clasp. You'll recognise it as soon as you see it.
You can see that this is the Binding for an important folio. The Mystic Phone Book is no ordinary book.
-
List of Subscribers
Martha
I'm attempting to communicate with the real world by using the Mystic Telephone. I only need your silence and your searching abilities. Simply assembling the phone is not enough if you don't actually know who to call. We'll also need a Phone Book. Find at least one page to start with.
So... Where did you find this page? Even though it's from the Phone Book, it's practically illegible.
-
Fateful Flight
Inspector
I'm impressed by oyur desire to help this soul find peace. But to do it, you need to figure out what happened to the ghost girl's lover. It makes sense to look at the guy's flight schedule.
Aha, just as I thought! Look at the date. Our restless soul's lover took off... and never came back. It seems he died in the sky. What a nightmare!
-
Self-obsession and Pride
Isabelle
You must've already guessed that I'm telling you about the demons in order of their hierarchy in the Chain of Vices. How carelessness breeds envy and envy breeds pride - disrespect towards other people, arrogance, boastfulness and ingratitude. This demon knows how to hide very well and people that are under its influence won't even listen to you. You'll have to work hard to find the key to the chains for this creature.
I'm really glad that your searches have been so successful. Let's chain the Demon of Pride quickly and lock it with a key! Oh, the City really has become more comfortable and calm.
-
Envy is a Bad Feeling
Isabelle
You've already had some practice with capturing demons. The next on the list is the Demon of Envy, who is anything but harmless. It enslaves people very quickly. Hurry and find the key to the chains of this demon, before the people of the City of Shadows fall under its power.
It's really good that you were so fast in finding the key to the chains of the Demon of Envy. Be quick and lock them!
-
Careless Attitude
Isabelle
The demons don't just have to be caught - they need to be locked back inside. To use the Lock of Virtue, you need to get the keys to the magical chains of each of the demons. The most harmless of these terrible creatures is the Demon of Carelessness. Find the key to his chains, please.
Every person is careless in one way or another. Not thinking things through, and making rash decisions about words and deeds often bring about very bad consequences. This is why we'll put the Demon of Carelessness on a chain and lock it with this key.
-
Staying Still in the Water
Huntress
There's another thing we must take. As the size of the lake is unknown and we don't know anything about its currents, we may need an anchor. Will you look for one?
Oh my! Where did you find such a light Folding Anchor? I hope it won't fail us in a difficult situation.
-
Safety Measures
Huntress
Now, we need to find some protective Life Vests. They should be reliable, float well and have lots of places to attach tools. We could end up in the water at any moment.
Let's have a look at these vests. Reliable, durable, lots of mountings... These are great!
-
Head Protection
Huntress
No speleologist will go underground without Safety Helmets and flashlights. Many dangers and ferocious beasts await us below. Find the helmets. Make sure their batteries are fully charged.
Did you find these multi-coloured helmets on purpose? Is this bright one especially for me? At least it's not pink.
-
A Rower's Tool
Huntress
We will need at least two oars if we're to cross the underground waters. Find the right oars for our expedition.
What light and practical oars. This set will be suitable to row singly or in pairs.
-
Inflatable Vessel
Huntress
We will need some special equipment to explore the underground lake. I'm going to rely on your help for this. First, we need an Inflatable Boat. It's not too heavy to carry and it doesn't take up much space. Find the boat in the City.
Oh my! I think I'll take this boat for myself afterwards, if we don't puncture it and if some monster doesn't rip it up. However, there's a pump and repair kit that comes with it, so we'll be able to use it even if it has holes.

Detective of the Church
Isabelle
A person's profession isn't always relevant to their talent as a detective. I'm referring to Father Brown - a catholic priest. He could be easily recognized by his black Umbrella and ever-present Cappello Romano. Find them, please.
It used to be fashionable to call this Roman hat a "saturno" because it resembled the ringed planet.

On the Threshold of a Dicovery
Detective
We have a new investigation ahead of us. The Mistress of the Manor has disappeared under mysterious circumstances, and now's the best time to explore the crime scene. Are you ready? Let's go!
It's not every day you get the chance to hang out in the Mistress's private quarters. What secrets are lurking under her velvet canopy? Time to find out!

The ball preparations at the Ice Palace are almost finished, and I can assure you that the citizens will have an unforgettable Christmas!

Airship Pilot
Mistress
My maid has been prattling on all day about the restless soul instead of cleaning up! The sooner we figure out why the soul is tied to the Airship Dock, the sooner Juliette will return to her duties. So.. find the pilot's dog tag.
The Personal Dog Tag belonged to a man with whom your restless soul was in love. He graduated from pilot school and piloted an airship. Don't just stand there - take the dog tag to Martha!

Student in Love
Lady
It's so sad that the girl's spirit dwelling at the Airship Dock cannot find peace. Martha asked me to find one of the items that could be holding her soul in this world - a flight school's emblem. Please help me with tihs.
This emblem belonged to a flight school studnet named Patrick. Apparently, this is the girl's beloved who was training go be an airship pilot. What happened to him?

Reliable Cache
Collector
The Proton Trap is a deadly, anti-anomaly weapon, Class 7-A. Store shielded to avoid radiation poisoning. Hmm... A working model can be found in the city vault, safely tucked behind the third plate in Room 6. Beware of ghosts. Hmm... Burn after use...
Damn, what a mess! It's good we found the Trap... I'd keep it if I could, but the Collector demanded we burn it after use. Come on, let's rescue the girl!

Application Instruction
Detective
I've never heard of a Proton Cannon, but I trust the Collector. Where will the manual be hidden? We should look in his house and if we don't find it we'll ask the Gargoyles - they have sticky fingers. If anyone asks, say you're helping with the investigation. I'll even give you a search warrant. Meanwhile, I'll find out the location of this cannon.
We've found the Manual. I think the Collector exaggerated it's complexity. Here are a couple of diagrams and a description of the security measures... Apparently, the Proton Cannon is a really powerful weapon. Unfortunately, I haven't found anything more about the trap itself.

The Collector's Records
Valerie
We're not experts on ghosts or magic, even though I know a little about love spells. The Detective once told me the Collector studied these phenomena in detail. There should be records in his house - maybe we can find some information there.
Look what I've found! It'd be useful if I could make out the handwriting... Remember those objects floating upside down in the cafe? Look at this: "A Poltergeist is one of the most powerful and evil spirits; wherever it appears, a real hell begins. Poltergeists can easily move objects, regardless of their weight, and can even upend a man." This is a Poltergeist, but how do we deal with it?

On the Track of Gargoyles
Valerie
Something terrible is happening in the Cafe! No, don't go in there, just look at what's going on inside! Objects fly around, the counter is upside down, a cupboard hangs in the air near the ceiling... Did you hear that? Someone's houting! That girl must be inside and the spirits won't let her go! What if this invasion is her fault? We're faced with a completely new anomaly! Let's ask Martha for advice. Do we still have enough time left?
Martha's nowhere around. A note on the table reads: "Meditating in the astral realms. Interrupt only if the end of days imminent." Oh, no! She can't help us.
-
Gift of the Beloved
Valerie
I'm sure the trouble that keeps the girl's soul at the Airship Dock has something to do with love. Martha said that a teddy bear in a pilot's suit is one of the soul-related items. That's defintely a gift from a boyfriend! Let's look for the toy!
There are words embroidered on the bear's scarf: "He will be with you when I'm not arounds." See, I was right. There is love involved!

Feminine Intuition
Isabelle
We can't forget about women detectives - although this one didn't call herself that. Miss Marple was a humble, hard-working, and sociable old lady. Her Hat and Glasses were all the disguise she needed.
An ordinary image of an English village - Miss Marple in her ever-present hat with her glasses in her hand. Her observational skills never gave the criminals a chance.

Belgian Mind
Isabelle
you probably couldn't find a person who hasn't heard of Hercule Poirot, with his famous moustache and egg-like head. One of the most importan things Poirot cared about was looking after his mustache. Scissors and a Comb are he main tools of this famous detective.
It turns out that Poirot's moustache comb was made of some sort of eastern wood and designed to order. I wonder if the scissors were also made to suit his specific preferences?
-
American Detective
Isabelle
Another famous detective was C. Auguste Dupin. Find his Top Hat and Cane - these were the special items of his wardrobe.
Detevctive Dupin with his Top Hat and Cane was a true dandy in retirement. But no one could deny the sharpness of his mind.
-
Deductive Method
Isabelle
A mysterious thief took these items. To find him, we'll have to summon the talents of world-famous detectives to assist us. For the ritual, we'll need personal items from each detective. To start with, bring me Sherlock Holmes' Cap and Pipe.
Sherlock Holmes could have become a lawmaker of fashion - his checkered English cap had a horde of admirers.

Bridge
Valerie
Hurry, let's cross the bridge! True spring and a wonderful picnic await us in the world of the Spirits of Nature!
Hurray! We're finally in the park across the Bridge. The birds really are singing here, and it smells of spring. These may be little things, but after a frosty winter they fill hearts with joy! Now's the time to start preparing for the spring picnic.
-
Mysterious Giver
Martha
I cannot put her soul to rest if I don't know what exactly is preventing it from going into the world of spirits. Fortunately, I've managed to sense the girl's aura and understand which items could be connected with the trouble that's keeping her at the Airship Dock. The first one is a bouquet. Not an ordinary one... but a flying one. Can you find something like this?
The bouquet tied to this balloon is enveloped in sorrow. I feel that the trouble keeping the girl's soul at the Airship Dock is connected with the person who gave her this bouquet.
-
She speaks!
Conductor
You do nothing but crank out trouble! Anomalies have escaped from the Station Building and flooded the City. Hopefully, the residents had time to take shelter. Martha says these effects are far more dangerous than previous ones. I think someone, pointing no fingers, deserves a flogging for wanting another trinket! Go to City Hall, try to find books or records on spirits, anything!
We did the rouds of City Hall and find nothing of interest. The anomalies will soon reach here, then... Oh, look, the statue under the sotne veil has stirred! Now it's muttering something! I can hear its voice. Hush, I can't make out the words... "Help me... Does anyone hear me? I can't get free." Did you hear that? "I'm locked up... gargoyles..." I don't get it!

The dreamer's mark
Martha
Soften Don Juan's rudeness - why do you and the Detective need it? Okay, don't tell if you don't want to. There's a special coin that can help - a reichsmark. A long time ago it was throuwn into the fountain by Louis of Saxony, nicknamed the Dreamer. He erected several magnificent castles, knew a lot of funny stories, had great imagination and loved to tell tales... It should balance the influence of Don Juan's coin, but won't suppress it.
Now I have the Ladykiller's frank and the Dreamer's mark. I feel strange changes within me. I want to both embrace and kiss Juliette immediately and tell her wonderful stories until morning. I'd say the coins are working!
-
Mad spirit
Detective
I can't get inside the cafe. But it should be no problem for you, with your abilities. Take a look there, maybe something happened to Martha. And pick up a mug of coffee for me while you're at it. I slept badly today.
How did you find me? I thought no one could enter. There's a boggart on the loose and his magical echo even reached my house. I came here to pacify the spirit.
-
Where is the medium?
Detective
Don Juan was unnecessarily rude to women. I'm afraid I'll scare Juliette away if I behave in such a manner. Maybe I can soften his influence somehow. Let's ask the medium for advice, maybe she knows something. Martha isn't here, that's strange. But she would never go without leaving some kind of a note for us. Let's look for it.
Strange, Martha's nowhere to be seen, but she left a note: "Gone to the Red Rose". Does she know how to enter the Cafe? I thought no one knew but you. Let's go!

Transformation of the Detective
Conductor
The Detective went inside the train after the boy and vanished! I wonder if something happened? We should look for them. Oh look, something is shining like another bronze toy.
We were looking for the Detective, and finally found the boy! Boy, do you want to give me something? A thousand devils, this is the Detective! To be exact, its an exact bronze replica of him! unbelievable!
-
Service Staff
Detective
What does this boy do? Why is he running away? Is he playing hide and seek with us? If so he's winning! Look, there he is, near the steam engine! Run, quick, we'll catch him now... Or find another bronze figurine.
Show us what you've found. A bronze Cook Figurine! Hmm, these figurines look more like small copies of people than toys. Where did the boy get such figurines? Look, this boy has disppeared into the train! I'm following him, and this time he's not getting away!

An Italian Woman in Bronze
Valerie
Very interesting: we ran around the Station looking for the boy, and found clues in the form ob bronze toys. I saw another statutte on the rails. Bring it, if you don't mind.
Um, the boy left a bronze Signora on the rails. Oh, what a beautiful dress! Strange toy for a kid tough, don't you think?
-
Railroad Worker
Alex
Look at this realistic bronze figure! It's the driver! It looks like it is handmade and made to order. Apparently, this boy is from a wealthy family to have such a toy.

A New Acquisition for Valerie
Valerie
This new guy is so cute, but he wouldn't pay attention to me. No wonder, look at me! I have nothing fancy to wear and look like a ninny! Can you help? I saw a beautiful hairpin at the Crash Site, but didn't have time to pick it up. It's an elegant, old item. To be honest, I'm scared to go to the Station because of those flashes and shadeows in the windows. And I'm afraid of the Conductor. Please, bring me that hairpin.
Thank you, it's so beautiful! Now this guy will notice me. Oh, what's going on? The flashes at the Station are getting brighter... And, do you hear that noise...?

The Beauty of Youth
Detective
I'm itching to say "thank you" to the one who built the Organ! But I want to make sure that Juliette's okay!
Oh, I'm so glad to see you, sirs!

Gift Shop
Valerie
The snowstorm has abated and you can now calmly approach the shop. I'm burning with anticipation as I really wanto to get my lovely gift.
Unbelievable! As soon as the veil of snow cleared, there was a strange discovery - the door of the shop has been frozen shut. How will the citizens get their gifts now? And what is that over there on the left? Ice statues of a lady and her suitor. The figures are so realistic, as if they are real people frozen in ice. I have a bad feeling about this.
