Explore the lore of K.L. in The Sinking City 2, featuring a letter from Rev. Zachariah James Baker about a second Flood and the beckoning Sea.

The text is a letter from Rev. Zachariah James Baker, who addresses his 'cherished flock'. He expresses a belief that 'Kay' has forsaken them and questions their fate, facing death either 'frightened' or 'mad'. He refers to a 'second Flood', suggesting it will be a cataclysmic event with no hope of redemption, as 'there will be no rainbow to blossom over our corpses'.

Rev. Baker describes a powerful, almost spiritual calling from 'The Sea', which he contrasts with scripture. He states that the Sea has always beckoned him since 'beasts who would be men oozed from her briny womb'. He declares his intention to 'go to seek Her soon' and experience her 'salt-laden baptismal breath'. He ends with a plea for forgiveness for their 'hubris'.

Tips
  • Pay close attention to the religious and apocalyptic themes present in the text.
  • Consider the symbolism of 'The Sea' and the 'second Flood' in relation to the game's narrative.
  • The identity of 'Kay' and the nature of the 'beasts who would be men' are key points of mystery.
