The Oakmont Chronicle (3)

Guide to The Oakmont Chronicle (3) in The Sinking City. Learn how to find the Kayfingers and progress through the 'Into the Depths' case with Charles Reed.

Alright, let's dive into the next part of our investigation. After resting up at the Devil's Reef Hotel and reading those cryptic notes about Cthygonnaar and the Dreamer's Hidden Daughter, you'll need to find three 'Kayfingers' to complete the Seal. The first one is at the central Monolith, but the other two are linked to the fire worshipers. Your next stop is St. Michael's Church of The Burning Bush. When you get to the church, you'll notice a lot of activity outside, including a cart with gasoline. Inside, you'll find some grim sights – charred skeletons and a note called _Cleanse yourselves!_ that talks about a Cleansing. You can also check out a gasoline can and a brazier. Upstairs, Meryl will give you some important info: what you're looking for is in the basement, and Father Nicholas left notes about the other monoliths. You'll also find a key and a _Shopping list_ detailing supplies for the Cleansing, and _The Book of Holy Flame_. As you head downstairs, be sure to read the _Warning note_ by the door. It mentions wylebeasts in the Zetetic Room, so be ready for a fight. In the bedroom, you'll find a book on dreaming and an illusory wall. Behind it, you'll face some wylebeasts. In the newly revealed room, check the bottle of Laudanum, a _Dream diary_ with clues about finding treasures and the second stone, and the _Priest's records_, which Father Nicholas's final thoughts before hiding the signs. Use your Mind's Eye on the rock protrusion to find the first Kayfinger. Then, follow the omens to reveal _Father Nicolas' Instruction_ from under an illusory goblet. These instructions will guide you to the next Monolith, mentioning three disciples and the waters rising. After this, you'll need to head to the Oakmont Chronicle to use the archives.
