Navigate Grimhaven Bay South in The Sinking City 2. Discover key evidence, optional investigations, and crucial conversations with NPCs like Johannes van der Berg and Robert Throgmorton.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    'Charon' Ship Investigation:
    1. Collect Key Evidence: Your belongings (briefcase), Letter from J. van der Berg, Camera, and Pistol. To collect the pistol, pick it up, rotate it until an 'eyeball' symbol appears on the handle, and press X to examine. You receive 6 .38 pistol rounds.
  2. 2
    Collect Additional Evidence: Take a photo of the mounted fish with your camera. Examine the flyer on the desk.
  3. 3
    Lootables: Search the locker for randomized ammunition and crafting materials. Lootable objects reset upon leaving and returning to the area.
  4. 4
    Exit the boat by climbing onto the dock (Triangle).
  5. 5
    Speak with Johannes van der Berg: Choose dialogue options to advance the conversation. Key options include 'About my problem,' 'Where is Robert Throgmorton?,' 'I need somewhere to stay,' 'How do I get to Devil's Reef?,' and 'Goodbye.' Be aware that selecting certain options closes off other dialogue branches.
  6. 6
    Find Robert Throgmorton: Proceed north along the pier and turn right at the sign.
  7. 7
    Speak with Robert Throgmorton: Key dialogue options to advance 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.' Optional questions can be asked, but selecting 'I'll be going' ends the conversation permanently.
  • Titania Lifeboat (Optional Investigation):
    1. Access: Return to the sign pointing to the exit, go left down a path, then left towards the sea. The lifeboat is beyond police barricades.
    2. Evidence: Inspect the 'TITANIA' nameplate, examine the Diving Helmet (rotate and search the front faceplate), and 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 drains sanity over time.
    3. Reward: Completing this optional investigation grants an additional 140 XP and unlocks an optional conversation with Robert Throgmorton after returning his son's will.
    • Tips

    • Consider investing a Skill Point into 'Absolute Clarity' for a 5% XP bonus.
    • Lootable containers can be repeatedly looted after the area resets.
    • Be mindful of your sanity when examining the Diving Helmet in the Titania Lifeboat.
    • 'Charon' Ship: Collecting all evidence grants an additional 140 XP.
    • Titania Lifeboat: Completing this optional investigation grants an additional 140 XP and unlocks an optional conversation with Robert Throgmorton.
