Learn about the tragic demise of Albert Throgmorton in The Sinking City 2. We cover his final moments, the circumstances of his death, and the investigation details.
Alright, let's talk about Albert Throgmorton. This is a bit of a somber part of the story, so buckle up. Albert's fate is tied to the mission 'Frosty Welcome', and it's a key piece of the puzzle you'll be putting together.
Albert went missing after an expedition to Devil's Teeth. He was the only survivor, which is already a bad sign. After being rescued, he ended up causing his rescuers to go a bit mad. Things really took a turn when an Innsmouther named Lewis Flynn shot at Albert, believing Albert had killed another fisherman. When you find Albert, he's been shot in the head and is hanging from a meat hook. Grim stuff.
Here's where it gets tricky: you'll need to use your detective skills to figure out if Lewis was fully in control when he shot Albert, or if Albert's own psychic madness influenced him. This deduction is crucial for solving the case.
Albert's Death and Funeral
After you've dealt with the immediate aftermath and notified Robert Throgmorton of his son's death, you'll find Albert's casket at the Throgmorton Manor. His obituary is quite formal, as you'd expect:
| "In Loving Memory. Albert Throgmorton, son of respected Robert Throgmorton and descendant of a robust bloodline, died on Thursday at Oakmont Port aged 25 years. We mourn his untimely death, but we celebrate the way he lived his life. The Throgmorton family appreciates the many comforting words and prayers sent by the citizens of Oakmont." |
When Detective Reed examines the coffin, he'll make a dry remark: "The mortician has touched him up well." It's a small detail, but it adds to the atmosphere of the game.
