OLDGROVE (Oldgrove North) (4)

Begin by examining your belongings on the table, which include the Letter from J. van der Berg, a Camera, and a Pistol.

To collect the pistol, pick it up, rotate it until an eyeball symbol appears on the handle, and press X to examine it. You will also receive 6 .38 pistol rounds.

Use the camera to take a picture of the trophy plate (a strange fish mounted on the wall) for additional evidence.

Examine the flyer on the desk to the left of your belongings for more evidence.

Loot the locker to the right of the desk for ammunition and crafting materials. Lootable contents are randomized and can be reset by leaving and returning to the area.

Exit the boat by climbing onto the dock using the Triangle button.

Engage in a conversation with Johannes van der Berg. To advance, select: "About my problem.", "Where is Robert Throgmorton?", "I need somewhere to stay.", "How do I get to Devil's Reef?", and finally, "Goodbye.". Note that choosing these options closes off other dialogue branches.

Proceed north along the pier to a sign pointing to a bar and an exit. Turn right towards the exit.

As you ascend the stairs, you will begin a conversation with Robert Throgmorton. To advance the game, select: "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.". Other dialogue options are optional.

For the optional investigation at the Titania Lifeboat: return to the sign, go left down a path, and turn left towards the sea. The lifeboat is beyond police barricades.

Inspect the Lifeboat Name "TITANIA" for evidence.

Examine the Diving Helmet, rotating it to search the front faceplate. Be mindful of sanity drain while examining the helmet.

Find Albert Throgmorton's will on one of the lifeboat seats. Climb inside the lifeboat (Triangle) to access some evidence.

Returning Albert's Will to Robert Throgmorton unlocks an optional conversation.
