Chapter 3: Valsembor 1: Steiner's Medicine

Kate has reached the port of Valsembor and she stand at the back of the ferry Krystal. Walk to the right and then along the ferry towards the crane and ..... At the gangway of the ferry, Kate comes across a drunk. The drunk is the captain Obo, the captain of the Krystal, the ferry. Talk to Captain Obo through all talking options.  

  After this conversation with Obo you walk further, past the crane and then you turn right into the street ......  

  Inn: Sarah Steiner

Go in the street to the first door on the left. View the signboard ..... The sign says that this is an inn and it is the inn of the greengrocer from whom Kate got the unstamped pass.  

  Enter the inn and walk to the bar. Behind the bar is the greengrocer. Talk to the greengrocer.

 

  When Kate asks the man about Simon Steiner, he refers her to his waitress Sarah, who is cleaning the long table.

  Sarah is the granddaughter of Simon Steiner, the clockmaker. So go and talk to Sarah.

  Ask Sarah everything you can ask but ask especially for her grandfather and where the workshop of grandpa is. Sarah explains where Kate can find her grandfather's workplace.

  Simon Steiner, the clockmaker

  After the conversation you leave the inn and go to the left to the yellow car, go left into the alley and walk up to a staircase.

  Go up the stairs and turn left to the shop window. Enter the store and talk to Simon Steiner.

Kate asks Steiner for the prosthesis of Kurk, but it is not ready yet. Then Steiner sees the pendant of Kate, the heart of Oscar. Steiner wants to see the pendant and he tells a lot about it. Steiner thinks that Kate  has stolen the heart and he closes his shop door.

  So tell Steiner about Oscar or about Hans and ...... Steiner then tells lyrical about Hans Voralberg and the automaton and then suddenly he is not well and grabs his heart

  Steiner needs his medication and Kate has to deliver it to him quickly.

  Steiner's Medicine

 Go to the wall with clocks and pick up the empty mug there.

  Then go to the right and then down the stairs to Steiner's workshop

 

  Walk in the basement to the workbench, past the model of the Krystal ferry. The Kurk leg prosthesis is located on the left workbench. Zoom in on the prosthesis and click on it

Kurk's prosthesis is not finished yet. On the wall there is a note, zoom in to read it. It is a letter from Sarah and she says that "Grandpa should not forget to take his medicine 3 hours before eating". Zoom out and walk to the right and pick up a newspaper from the workbench.

 

  Read the newspaper in your inventory.

 

  The article is about an incident in the Baranour nuclear power plant.

 

  Also take a look at the model of the ferry Krystal but do not do anything with it now

 

  Go back upstairs via the stairs. Back up you zoom in on the drawers, under the counter .........

 

  Pull open the middle drawer in the right-hand row and then take Steiner's Recipe out.

  Read the recipe in your inventory.

  Turn around and go to the wall on the right of the stairs, in the middle there is a house / clock. Zoom in on that house clock

  Place the empty mug on the shelf, under the clock.

Then pull the glass plate of  the clock to the side. You can then move the 2 hands. Grandpa normally eats at 20.00 and he has to take his medication 3 hours in advance. 3 hours before 20.00 hours is 17.00 hour, so it must be 5 o'clock on the clock Turn the small hand to 5 and then turn the big hand to 12 and .......

  As soon as you have the clock at 5 o'clock the mug will be filled with the medicine .......

  When it is ready, take back the mug now filled with the medicine. Zoom out, turn to Steiner and give him the mug with the medicine and ....

 

  ........ Steiner drinks his medicine and immediately he feels better and he is now willing to help Kate.

  Ask Steiner again about the prosthesis and insist on haste because Kate still has a lot to do. 

Steiner offers to bring the prosthesis to Kurk and then take Kurk to the Youkols. Steiner warns Kate about what to expect in Baranour.

  Steiner then goes to the cellar and he wants Kate to follow him. So follow Steiner down. Back in the basement, see an open box, at the bottom of the stairs.

 

  Zoom in on the open box and then move aside a number of film rolls to the right until you find a film roll with the inscription: Baranour and a drawing of an octopus.

 

  Take the film roll and walk to the projector, which is in the corner on the workbench.

  Open the inventory, select the film roll and place the film roll on the projector and .........

 

  The film is played and the film shows Kate what happened in Baranour, making Captain Obo a drunk

  In the meantime, Sarah has come in ...... When the film is over Steiner goes back upstairs. So follow Steiner back up and talk to Steiner and Sarah.

 

  Because the lake no longer freezes Kate wants to take the Youkols to the other side by ferry Krystal. But Kate has to persuade Captain Obo to sail the Krystal with the Youkols to the other side of the lake. Sarah has to go back to the inn and Kate also, because Obo is in the inn.

  Leave the Steiner store and follow the route through the street back to the yellow car and then turn right to the inn

 

  Persuade Captain Obo to sail the Krystal

Inn

 

  Enter the inn again. Walk in to the left, to the corner to the left of the fireplace. In the corner next to the fireplace, Captain Obo from the Krystal, is drinking to get drunk. Talk to Obo

  Kate tries to persuade Obo to sail the Youkols to Baranour with the Krystal. Obo is not only drunk, but also too scared to sail ever with the Krystal over the lake.

  Kate needs some help to sober up Obo, so walk to the bar and talk to Sarah and the bartender about Captain Obo.

The bartender will then make a drink to sober the captain. Ask the bartender everything about Obo and what happened in Baranour. 

Then go back to captain Obo and click on him again and ....... Once Kate is back at Obo, Sarah will bring the "sobering" drink ......

 

  After Obo has the drink, the captain is clear again and now Kate can have a normal conversation with him.

Talk to Obo now through the all options you get and try to get him to agree to transfer the Youkols to Barounor with the Krystal. You have to use the right options for this and those options come in 2 series. Make sure you can hit Obo in the 2nd series in his pride, so in the 2nd series use the option 1 "Touch him in his pride" and ....  

Kate makes Obo angry by suggesting that if Obo does not want to sail the Krystal she will buy the barge to sail away with it herself. Captain Obo doesn’t allow that and he is prepared to sail the Krystal but there are conditions that he specifies. Obo then leaves the inn to go to the Krystal to make preparations. Sarah warns Kate that she should not hesitate now because if she waits too long, Obo may change his mind again.

 

NB: If you went wrong here, Obo refuses to sail the Krystal and stays in the Inn

Sarah also speaks to Kate and says that Kate should look for other arguments on the ferry to convince Obo

  Leave the inn. Now go back to the quay and then follow the quay to the right, to the steps of the Krystal ferry.

Climb the stairs to the deck of the Krystal and then enter the passenger cabin, through the side door or the door on the forecourt. Inside you walk to the middle and a little to the back, then to the left or to the right there are stairs to the top. Above you find the bridge / wheelhouse, at the top of the first stairs you go to the middle. On the shelf along the wall behind the steering wheel is a suitcase and there is a book, it is the logbook of the captain.

  Take the logbook and read it in your inventory.

The logbook contains the arguments for Kate to persuade Obo to sail the Krystal. If you did not manage to get to Obo in the inn, you will now leave the ship and return to the inn. In the inn you walk back to the corner where Obo is still sitting. Talk to the captain again and, because Kate has read the log, she can persuade him to take the Youkols to the other side by ferry. After the conversation, the captain gets up and goes to the ferry. Sarah says to Kate that she has to hurry before the captain changes his mind. Go back to the ferry and go up to the bridge / wheelhouse, there is Obo.

 

  Talk to Obo and he will give you a paper with a code and Kate needs this code to enter the warehouse where the coal is located.

 

  Kate also needs the code for the crane to load the coals on the ship, but to do so she first has to open the hatch of the coal.

  We will go further in:
