COVERSIDE (Coverside Central) (2)

The "Charon" Ship: This is your first investigation location. Collect key evidence: your belongings (briefcase, Letter from J. van der Berg, Camera, Pistol), and additional evidence: a photo of a trophy plate and a flyer. You must collect your belongings to leave the ship. To examine the pistol, pick it up, rotate it until an eyeball symbol appears on the handle, and press X. You receive 6 .38 pistol rounds. To reload your gun, equip it and press Square.

Johannes van der Berg Conversation: After leaving the ship, you'll automatically speak with Johannes van der Berg. Key dialogue options to advance are: "About my problem.", "Where is Robert Throgmorton?", "I need somewhere to stay.", "How do I get to Devil's Reef?", and "Goodbye.". Choosing these options progresses the game and locks out other dialogue branches.

Find Robert Throgmorton: Proceed north along the pier and turn right at the sign pointing to the exit. You will automatically start a conversation with Robert Throgmorton as you go up the stairs.

Robert Throgmorton Conversation: Key dialogue options to advance the game include: "What happened to your son?", "Who are the Innsmouthers?", "What do you know about the visions?", "I can try to find Albert.", "Tell me more about the case.", and "I'll be going.". Asking about the lifeboat's location is optional and will not be repeated.

Titania Lifeboat (Optional Investigation): Return to the sign pointing to the exit. Go left down a path, then left towards the sea. The lifeboat is beyond police barricades. This investigation is optional and does not add to your casebook, but grants 140 XP and an additional conversation with Robert Throgmorton.

Titania Lifeboat Evidence: Inspect the lifeboat name "TITANIA". Rotate the Diving Helmet and search its front faceplate. Find Albert Throgmorton's will on a seat. You may need to climb inside the lifeboat (Triangle) to collect evidence. Looking at the diving helmet for too long will drain your sanity.
