Conductor's Device
Conductor
Now we have all three things that belonged to your friend. If we do this right, the device will point out the coordinates of the place where Jacob is now. Hurry, activate the machine.
The device is working... do your hear it humming? It shows coordinates... Jacob is in the centre of the City. But it's impossible to get there. The centre has been surrounded by a dark fog many years! Hey, what's wrong with you? Everything is hazy... Hey, wake up! What happend to you? It was a vision? Your friend was in the hazy mist, calling for help? And his last words were, 'Look for a clue in the Collector's House?' This is just what Jacob said in my vision

Mysterious Artifact
Juliette
While you were bravely fighting the gargoyle, a mysterious stranger passed me this note. "Look for a fang on the border between worlds. Signed L." Jacob was wearing a fang around his neck, you say? But I don't get what "border between worlds" means. Maybe it's the Station? Since all newcomers to the City of Shadows appear there. Explore the Station of Forgotten Dreams.
This is a Gargoyle fang - an artifact from the City of Shadows! Where did your friend get it from? If it was on him before you two even ended up in the City, then how did Jacob come across it? Like the photo, this fang is confirmation that your friend is connected to the City and the House with red Windows.

Thieving Gargoyle
Juliette
Are you looking for your lost friend's stuff? I saw sunglasses... Jacob dropped them when the dark shadows dragged him across the square. His glasses were there for just a second before a huge gargoyle swooped down from a roof and took them. Are you brave enough to take Jacob's sunglasses from gargoyle? She won't part with them easily. Look for Thor's Hammer, it's a weapon that every stone beast fears.
You found the second item quite fast and are close to your goal. Maybe someday you'll help me reach the center of the city and the House with Red Windows? Legend says the house grants wishes... I've tried to get there several times, but the fog wouldn't let me. It rolls in from the central districts, carrying new items, sometimes bodies! Not always human...

This Music Will Play For All Eternity...
Conductor
I know you're looking for your friend Jacob, and Martha told you to ask me. I've got an old machine that can show the location of a newcomer in the City. But to make it show Jacob's location, we need three things that belonged to him. I heard music playing in the City Hall, some well-known tune... It wasn't there before. Must be a music player there somewhere. Did your friend have a music player?
You've found the first of Jacob's belongings. Find two more - they are necessary for pinpointing his location with the device.

Rite
Martha
Just who is Jacob and how is he connected to the City of shadows' past? You've made me curious. I'll help you perform a special ritual with this picture. Spirits can see things beyond a human's perception, but I'll need ghostly essence for the ritual. Find some, please.
Now I can conduct the ritual. Jacob is alive, I feel it... It's dark around him, foggy, with strange shadows surrounding him... Your friend is very far away; as if in another time or dimension. I don't see anything else... Sorry! Talk to the Conductor, he lives at the Station of Forgotten Dreams and welcomes new arrivals. He has a device that helps find lost people.

Important Recordings
Detective
I think the spirits took the notebook to the City Hall. Hurry up and find it. Then I'll help you investigate your friend's disappearance.
Great!

Mysterious Photo
Juliette
I'm intrigued by the clue that City Hall has given you. It's a fragment of an old photo. But who is that in it, and how is it related to you and your friend Jacob? You have to find the second fragment of the photo to understand this clue's meaning and find your friend. If I were you, I'd return to City Hall and look for it there.
You've found the second photograph piece, you say? Grea, now we can see the whole photo. Look, it's your friend! Has he been to the City before? Haven't you just arrived at the City of Shadows? This is too confusing. Let's show the picture to the Detective, he's a good friend of mine and he can help us.
