I woke up in a nightmare.

This was all I could do, even though I'd get hurt in the process.

I couldn't contain my anger, but, of course, I couldn't turn my back on her either.

I don't have the best history with guns, but I know how to use one.

There was a monster prowling this area. If it got in the way, I'd have to ATTACK it.

Start in: Tower District Finish at: Obsidian Riverbank

## Conversation

1. talk to hologram
2. 4

Cath was feeling a bit more chatty now, it seemed. I could ask her about what was going on.

Maybe I'd been a bit harsh on her...

I went to Cath, but the way was blocked by her stupid robot.

There was one obvious place where Cath was always losing her jewellery.

And a few outfits in my wardrobe leapt out to me: I could WEAR one and it might make some aspect of this nightmare a little easier.

7. push one
8. n
9. w

Getting to Cath still wasn't simple. I needed to open the blast door and get that creepy statue out of the way.

Two more of those monsters were wandering inside her palace. Searching that partisan's bandolier might turn up some more bullets. And maybe I could SWITCH ON that broken-down guardian in the servants' hall?

Start in: Robot Leg Joint Finish at: Princess Chamber

## Princess Cathabel X

1. talk to cath
2. 1
3. 1
4. 1

I couldn't turn my back on Illume, and I knew Cath couldn't turn her back on me.

Who in the deepest, darkest shadows was this guy? I'd have to be extra careful when moving through the city centre.

There were two more of those monsters in this area, making things difficult. I needed to search everything for supplies to deal with them.

And those flashing buttons were really tempting... Although only one of them was reusable.

I didn't need to listen to anything this woman said... even if I felt a bit responsible.

The crowbar would come in useful.

And I wanted to see what that woman was warning me about.

13. drop arm

I found another entrance into the corrupted space beyond Core Bay 3. Since I'd already lured the monster to the far end, I could get in and grab that severed arm.

Cath said the VEC had a DNA lock... but I'd need a way to deal with the Viscount unless I wanted to take a hit while opening it.

Samuel may have been a newcomer, but he was also a sun-sider through and through.

It was time to put those silver bullets to use.

I couldn't forget there were two lesser monsters that might attack me while opening the DNA lock, if I hadn't already dealt with them.

Into the monsters' nest.

The chances of me being able to wait that long in one location were low, but if I left, the elevator would start to return to orbit.

Was that another one of Cath's guardians to the west of the Foyer?

And pushing the "START" button in the meeting rooms might keep some of the monsters busy, for a while.

Required items: Gyro Gun, Silver Bullet Start in: Value Enhancement Centre Foyer Finish at: Geostationary Palace

## The Dowager King

1. attack king

I was immediately in danger. Anything other than attack would give him a chance to strike...

How could her own father treat her like this?!

But this monster was predictable. If I kept moving, it wouldn't get a chance to hit me.

Joining more people together to make a new kind of bullet. Exactly what Cath had been doing, but also its opposite.

My nightmare was finally over.
