The Music of Death/Dialogues

***Hardangervidda National Park, Norway…***

Tashard: Detective, I want to congratulate you once again for doing great in Scotland back then!

Tashard: Now that we're in Norway, I think you remember our mission here.

Tashard: Exactly, a Fossegrim was found deceased here, and apparently, his death is too mysterious to be ignored.

Tashard: To summarize who this Fossegrim is, he's a water spirit who's well known for playing the fiddle in the woodlands.

Tashard: The death of a supernatural creature is a threat to us, and that's why we need to act to protect them at all costs!

Tashard: Detective, take Ganika with you this time and go to Hardangervidda National Park and solve this poor Fossegrim's murder!

## Chapter 1

**Investigate Waterfall.**

Ganika: My God, the Chief is right, the poor Fossegrim is dead. My question is, why is he grey? And the worst part is, why is he completely naked?

Ganika: There's a wound in his chest, you think this is the cause of death? The marks read impalement, but Alexa can tell us more about it.

Ganika: You found a brooch? We could check the database to see who is the owner. I doubt our naked victim would own such things.

Ganika: I see you also found a smashed fiddle, good job Detective! If I remember, the Chief said the Fossegrim always plays the fiddle. We should restore this to see if there's anything vital in it!

Ganika: Our case in Scandinavia has started, detective! And it's time for us IPS to unleash our skills!

**Examine Brooch.**

Ganika: So, our database said that this brooch belongs to…the royal family??!!

Ganika: Detective, I'll be honest…I didn't expect this at all. Is the royal family involved with the Fossegrim?

Ganika: This brooch in particular belongs to the Queen of Norway, Mariann III.

Ganika: So the Queen has something to do with this case, but the problem is, how do we even approach her? We can't just go to her palace and say, "Excuse me, we found a dead supernatural being and you are a suspect in his murder."

Ganika: Let's just go back to the headquarters and ask the Chief about this-

Lei: No need, Ms. Doshi. I have contacted Her Majesty already, you two will be posing as journalists asking for an interview.

Ganika: Agent Beifong?! How did you sneak up here so quickly?

Lei: A Bureau Agent has her ways, Ms. Doshi. I'm tasked to assist you, after all.

Lei: Now go, before it's too late. You'll be meeting Her Majesty in thirty minutes in Oslo.

Ganika: You're very sweet, Agent Beifong, to assist us with this. I knew that there is something behind your strict attitude.

Lei: ...Please just go before I blush…Ugh…

**Meet up with Queen Mariann III.**

Mariann: So you're the journalists who wanted to interview me? Do pray tell what it is about.

Ganika: Your Majesty, we found your brooch while we were at work.

Mariann: Seriously, that's it? Did you summon me here just to return my brooch?

Ganika: Uh- No, Your Majesty, we believe that we found this next to a dead body. It sounds strange, but we believe he has something to do with you. The man is nude, and has long hair, for your information.

Mariann: ...I see, you guys are no ordinary journalists, are you?

Ganika: What do you mean, Your Majesty?

Mariann: You can just tell me that you are members of the IPS. Us royals are familiar with the supernatural.

Mariann: So the Fossegrim has fallen then. That's a shame, he was a great guest to our family.

Ganika: So you knew our victim's true identity then? What are his connections to you and your family, Your Majesty?

Mariann: My family brought him in to teach me the fiddle. I am not fond of it, but I'm trying.

Mariann: Ruling a country is not easy, so why bother with music class? But I digress.

Ganika: Your Majesty, when was the last time you've seen the Fossegrim alive?

Mariann: The time I visited the park to see his residence. Probably the time I dropped my brooch too. You could visit the river cave there, he stays there often.

Ganika: Thank you, Your Majesty. We will keep in touch with you once we get more progress!

**Investigate River Cave.**

Ganika: Wow, this cave's beautiful, don't you think, detective?

Ganika: If only I could camp here whilst drinking a good cup of chai, it would be amazing, but sadly we are at work…

Ganika: What did you find, detective? Hm? Is that a bong? What is that doing here?

Ganika: Either this is left by a druggie, or the killer, we gotta examine this, detective!

Ganika: There's also this doll who resembles our victim. Let's check for fingerprints to see who made this doll!

**Examine Bong.**

Ganika: Alright, what did you discover here, detective?

Ganika: The inscription says this belongs to the bandits, what does this mean-

Ruben: Oi, give that back to me! You can't just touch my items, bugger!

Ganika: Excuse me? You do realize smoking weed is a crime right?

Ruben: F\*ck off with that law crap! Don't you see who I am? I'm the f\*cking leader of the bandit gang, Ruben Aarrestad, so give that bong back or you'll regret coming here!

Ganika: Ugh- Fine, take your bong! But we need to speak with you!

**Inquire Ruben Aarrestad about the murder.**

Ruben: The heck you want to talk about, huh? Buying drugs? Acting like a bunch of do-gooders? Asking to fight?

Ganika: Not any of that, Mr. Aarrestad. We're talking about a murder that happened around here recently, a man has died!

Ruben: And? Do I look like I would weep on this random dead f\*cker? Never met the man, that's all!

Ruben: Plus, why would I bother looking at a naked guy? Do I look like that to you?

Ruben: Now buzz off and let me have my time here!

Ganika: My goodness, that brute's making me mad!

Ganika: I wish we could arrest him and take him to court, but we're no police officers, our job is just to protect the supernatural.

**Examine Doll.**

Ganika: You finished it already, detective? I'm impressed by your amazing skills!

Ganika: Let's check the database and see who matches this fingerprint.

**Examine Fingerprints.**

Ganika: The database says that the fingerprints match a certain Erlend Rendahl. It says that he has lived in this park alone for years…so a hermit then.

Ganika: Let's seek this hermit and ask him some questions regarding the case.

**Ask Erlend Rendahl about the doll he made that resembles the victim.**

Erlend: Alright, all I need is just to pull the reel faster and-

Ganika: Excuse me, are you Erlend Rendahl? We have some questions for you.

Erlend: Hm? Sorry, guys, let me just catch this one fish and- Damnit! This isn't a fish, this is a boot!

Erlend: Ahem, but, anyway, what do you two seek from an old hermit like me?

Ganika: We are asking about this doll, a man who looked like this has died in this park, and we think you're suspicious because of your doll.

Erlend: Ah, that man…I see him a lot, from far away, as I sit in the cave…staring at the stars.

Erlend: But I never talked to the man, I just stared at him, wondering how he could survive being naked in such weather.

Erlend: That man's odd appearance inspired me to make this doll. He's a once-in-a-lifetime sighting, so I had to make this doll for myself.

Ganika: Okay, Mr. Rendahl, we will talk to you later about this case once our first investigation is done.

**Examine Smashed Fiddle.**

Ganika: You're astounding at restoring stuff, detective!

Ganika: Hm, this fiddle has some weird symbols drawn on it, I wonder what those are.

Ganika: Let's send this to Ryan, he might know something, since this thing belongs to the Fossegrim.

**Analyze Fiddle.**

Ryan: Yo, Ganika, you look gorgeous today, wanna go drink sometimes? I got coffee, you know?

Ganika: Thanks for the offer, but no. And what did you say? Coffee? Are you kidding me?!

Ganika: Just so you know coffee is just pure garbage! Chai tea overtops it, you know!

Ryan: ...Damn girl, chill. Never mind about it then, I think you want to know about the fiddle right?

Ryan: As you guessed, this belongs to the Fossegrim. You see, Fossegrimmen possess such great ability on playing the fiddle that people started paying to get them to teach their skills.

Ryan: Well, they won't do that easily unless you do at least offerings. There are two ways, but that didn't matter here.

Ryan: Regarding the symbols on the fiddle, it's a strategy for the card game Skittgubbe. It's like poker, but for Scandinavians.

Ryan: Fossegrimmen don't play cards, so it means your killer must be!

Ganika: Our killer plays Skittgubbe? No matter how strong their strategy is, we'll always get the upper hand to catch them!

**Autopsy Victim's Body.**

Alexa: I won't lie, this dead Fossegrim got some…how do I say, nice abs. Makes me want to be "abs"ent from work.

Ganika: …

Alexa: And I wish my jokes are appreciated. Moving on, I think it's obvious that the victim died from that wound on his chest.

Alexa: The rupture is caused by a spear, an enchanted spear, to be precise. It's probably what caused your victim to become grey.

Alexa: There are also traces of wheat, tomatoes, and water. These are the key ingredients for spaghetti.

Alexa: Our victim didn't eat such things, so you can say, your killer is "ghetti"n murderous after eating such delicacy!

Ganika: ...Wow, you got the whole squad laughing, Alexa, no offense…

Alexa: Whatever.

Ganika: Let's recap this case a bit. So we found a dead Fossegrim, stabbed in the heart with a spear.

Ganika: Our suspects include the Queen of Norway herself, who brought the Fossegrim to her palace to teach her the fiddle.

Ganika: There is also that brute Ruben Aarrestad. I wish he was the killer, so we could lock him up for the rest of his life!

Ganika: There is also the hermit Mr. Rendahl, who made a doll that resembles the victim.

Ganika: Out all these three, who do you think is-

Royal Guard: Hold everything right there! Her Majesty wants to see you!
Ganika: Huh? What is the royal guard doing here? And what does the Queen seek us for?

Royal Guard: Her Majesty says that she could help your murder investigation once more!

## Chapter 2

Ganika: The queen said that? What kind of help?

Royal Guard: You'll learn more once you follow us to the royal palace, now go!

Mariann: You're finally here, detectives. Now, remember when I said the Fossegrim often came here to teach me the fiddle?

Mariann: You see, this particular room is also open for tourists to see, mostly during the day since I don't use it that much. Your culprit could've visited this palace themselves.

Mariann: So I am authorizing you to search through this place.

Ganika: Thank you, Your Majesty. Detective, let's search this place in an instant!

**Investigate The Royal Palace.**

Ganika: I always wanted to visit a palace ever since I was a kid. Back then, poverty struck my family so badly that I couldn't see anything luxurious like this.

Ganika: What did you say? You found a camera roll? It could belong to one of the tourists, let's see the contents.

Ganika: Is that a gift box? I don't want to spoil the owner's surprise, but let's check it, it could include something vital to our investigation.

Ganika: Is that a towel on the ground, it's full of green stains on it, gross!

Ganika: Huh? Do you think this could be the Fossegrim's blood? Well, this changes everything, let's take this to the lab.

**Examine Camera Roll.**

Ganika: From what I see, the man in this picture doesn't look like our victim at all. So who is this man?

Ganika: Let's use the database to see his identity!

**Examine Unknown Man.**

Ganika: Our database says that this man is Børge Tofte, he is a local wildlife photographer around here.

Ganika: You know, a wildlife photographer like him could have seen the Fossegrim somewhere nearby, let's ask Mr. Tofte right away if he saw our victim!

**Question Børge Tofte if he has seen the victim.**

Ganika: Mr. Tofte, we are investigators seeking to find out the culprit who killed someone around this park, did you happen to see him?

Børge: Holy cow! I'm being interviewed by actual investigators! That's rad, man.

Børge: But sadly, I never saw this dude at all. The question is, why is he naked?

Børge: Either this dude is a mentally insane nutcase, or he could be filming like, a certain kind of shoot, if you know what I mean, haha.

Børge: Anyways, if I know something about it, I'll tell you more. But, the only things I caught in this park are just wild animals and fresh mountains.

**Examine Gift Box.**

Ganika: So what are the contents in this box, detective?

Ganika: Flowers? Like, what kind? Are they roses? Lilac? Or maybe tulips?

Ganika: Nevermind, I don't think the flower type matters, but the sender is. You see that tag over there, we could recover the inscription on it.

**Examine Tag.**

Ganika: Wow, you're fast at this, detective. No wonder why the Chief looks at you with respect!

Ganika: So, the tag says, "To the queen", and it was sent by…our victim?

Ganika: You're right, there's also another name on it. The flowers are apparently from a florist by the name of Trude Bjerke.

Ganika: Let's ask Ms. Bjerke if she encountered the Fossegrim in her shop!

**Inquire Trude Bjerke if she met the victim.**

Trude: Welcome to my flower shop! Do you want some camellias for someone you're fond of? Or daffodils for the figures you respect?

Ganika: No flowers, for now, Ms. Bjerke. We're asking if you ever encountered this man before. He bought flowers as a gift from your shop. He's recently been murdered in Hardangervidda National Park.

Trude: NO! Grim's dead?!

Trude: He's a good friend! Like, my savior! When I was hiking weeks ago, I got lost and was freezing at the park.

Trude: Not even freshly cooked spaghetti could keep me warm. I thought I was going to die, but he saved me and brought me to his cave.

Trude: I don't understand why he is completely nude in such weather, but that doesn't matter right now.

Trude: I gave him free flowers from my shop as a thank you, but I guess he also needed some to send to the Queen.

Trude: I hope he rests in peace.

**Examine Towel.**

Ganika: Let's send this sample to Enno. He'll find out the results soon! I hope he's not doing anything insane right now!

**Analyze Victim's Blood.**

Enno: Oh, hi there, detective. Just don't mind the fact I'm grey right now!

Ganika: Enno, what the heck did you do to yourself this time? Did you poison yourself?

Enno: Sort of. I put some mercury in my bloodstream after all. Well, not the lethal one, I removed all the dangerous chemicals from it, so I'm okay for a while!

Ganika: Enno! Stop trying to hurt yourself! You could die if something goes wrong, you know?!

Enno: I'm okay, Ganika. You don't have to worry, I'm Enno Wiesendanger after all, a genius like me would never die!

Enno: Back to the sample you sent, I can confirm that it belongs to your victim, but that's not all!

Enno: I found small flakes of skin coming from a worm, and this worm typically comes from the ones used to bait fishes.

Enno: There's a chance that your murderer is an avid fan of fishing themselves. You can add that to the killer's profile!

Ganika: Our killer enjoys fishing? Good, we could fish them out from hiding once we gather all clues to indict them!

Ganika: Speaking of that, remember Mr. Rendahl? The first time we saw him, he was fishing. Let's add this to his profile.

Ganika: Alright, now we have five suspects on our list.

Ganika: All of them seem to not know the victim at all, especially his real identity. And only the Queen knows about his background.

Ganika: Ms. Bjerke claims to be his friend, I wonder if she doesn’t know his true identity…

Ganika: Talking about all of this makes me wanna visit the waterfall for the second time, let's investigate it again!

**Investigate Rocks.**

Ganika: If this wasn't a murder scene, I would meditate around here, the waterfall's breeze seems…peaceful.

Ganika: You found a bloodied sledgehammer? Judging by the blood, it belongs to a human.

Ganika: Who got hurt from this? Let's find out by sending this to Enno.

Ganika: You also found a pouch? I don't see anything relevant about it, but anything could be evidence, right?

Ganika: Detective, we're slowly coming to the end of this case! Let's examine the things we found here!

**Analyze Sledgehammer.**

Enno: Ah, Detective, thank goodness you came here before this fiend of a pet Percy tried to sabotage my bunsen burner once again.

Ganika: O-okay, what the heck did you make this time, Enno?

Enno: …Homemade uranium.

Ganika: Homemade what?! Enno, are you trying to kill us all?!

Enno: Calm down, Ganika. It's not even finished yet, so far, all I did is just add two harmless chemicals, nothing bad I swear.

Ganika: Just please, stop with your crazy experiments and help us with the case!

Enno: Fine. The blood on your sledgehammer matches a missing man who is presumed dead three days ago.

Enno: Ash can tell you more about this, let me bring them in.

Ash: Hey, so, this missing guy whose blood you found? He's murdered, there's hidden footage about it on the web.

Ash: But that's not all, the video also includes the Fossegrim confronting someone, who looks like one of your suspects, Ruben Aarrestad.

Ash: You could say, Ruben might have dealt with the poor dude, and the Fossegrim is trying to stop him. Luckily, Ruben didn't even strike a hit to the Fossegrim.

Ganika: I knew that brute is suspicious AND dangerous! Let's go grill him about this! Don't forget to bring your gun, detective, just in case!

**Grill Ruben Aarrestad about the footage.**

Ruben: Now what do you nitwits want once again? Can you see I'm busy eating spaghetti here?

Ganika: You can stop with your crap and tell us about this footage: We know you killed someone, and our victim tried to stop you.

Ruben: Sh\*t! Whoever posted that online, I'll kill you!

Ruben: Okay, you got me alright, I did kill someone in the woods before, but it's because that scum is a snitch!

Ruben: F\*cker tried to report it to the feds, of course, I got to deal with him, it's one of our gang activities, just so you know.

Ruben: But that naked d\*ckhead interrupted me, shouting at me to stop and sh\*t.

Ruben: I'll be frank, I would have hit the guy, but since I want to leave quickly, I threatened to kill his family if he dared to say a word.

Ganika: If you end up killing our victim because you fear you will get exposed, you better say goodbye to the outside world, since you're going to prison for life! Maybe call that your new activity by now.

**Examine Pouch.**

Ganika: Wow, this pouch smells…delicious, wonder what is inside.

Ganika: Smoked mutton? Who would leave this here? Shouldn't you eat them instead of leaving them here?

Ganika: You're right, that mutton seems glowy! This isn't ordinary food, this may be something supernatural!

Ganika: Let's send this to Ryan, he could find out what this thing is!

**Analyze Smoked Mutton.**

Ryan: Yo dude, thanks for the free food! It was quite a feast!

Ganika: Ryan, please don't tell me that you ate evidence…

Ryan: Don't take my words seriously, girl, I'm joking, haha.

Ryan: But this mutton… Detective, you remember when I told you about the offerings you must give to the Fossegrimmen?

Ryan: This is one of them! You gotta steal smoked mutton from your neighbor's storage, for four Thursdays in a row.

Ryan: The fossegrimmen will teach you the fiddle with such great skill that your fingers bleed if the offering is satisfactory, but if there is not enough meat, they'll just teach you how to tune the fiddle.

Ryan: The glow on this meat indicates that this satisfied the Fossegrim, but you have to place this pouch near their home, but since this is found next to the waterfall instead…

Ryan: You could say this mutton was stolen by someone! I found some fibers on the pouch, so I sent them to Enno.

Ryan: He said the fibers belong to a poncho, you got anyone in your suspect list who wears such a garment?

Ganika: Yeah, there is that hermit, Erlend Rendahl. Did he steal this? If so, this may incur the wrath of the Fossegrim.

Ganika: Let's ask Mr. Rendahl right away!

**Confront Erlend Rendahl for stealing the Fossegrim's offering.**

Ganika: Mr. Rendahl, do you know this thing?

Erlend: Oh yes, I took it for me to eat, later on, thanks for returning it! Eating spaghetti is just boring to me now, and I need something new.

Ganika: And does finding new food require stealing? We know you stole this from our victim! You're lucky that you didn't incur his wrath!

Erlend: Okay okay, yes, I stole it! But you're wrong on the wrath part. I did incur that, he burned everything I have!

Ganika: Wait what?!

Erlend: After I took that pouch, I started to explore the woods to take a breather, before I encountered a nice young man, his name was Børge, I believe, and we played Skittgubbe together.

Erlend: And that's when we sensed a smoke coming from a fire. I told him to stay before I ran in the direction where the smoke was coming from.

Erlend: To my surprise, it is my tent that was burned down, and I witnessed that naked guy holding a torch. He seems hellbent on revenge!

Erlend: Of course, I was mad, I tried to lunge at him, but he dodged it, and ran away.

Erlend: Well, karma hit him now, since he's dead, and I'm still here, living a happy life!

Ganika: Mr. Rendahl, if you got your revenge on the victim for good, your next home will be prison!

Ganika: Welp, two of our suspects seem to have lied about not knowing the victim.

Ganika: We got Ruben Aarr-bastard, who has a history of killing someone, confronting our victim, do you think he could have silenced our Fossegrim for that?

Ganika: There is also Erlend Rendahl, who got his home burned down by our victim, could he have taken vengeance upon him?

Ganika: There are still more answers to-

Enno: Detective! You gotta help me!

Ganika: Enno? What happened? You did another crazy experiment that requires our help to clean again?

Enno: No, it's about Percy the Platypus! He fled my lab…while carrying all of our paperwork!

Ganika: Percy…did what!?

## Chapter 3

Ganika: What the heck, Enno! You should've watched him properly! If the Chief hears about this, he'll have all our heads!

Tashard: And you're right, what is this I heard of? Are we this incompetent to have an animal steal all of your paperwork?!

Tashard: Enno! You're suspended from your work until this case is done! Now go to my office for more reprimands! Detective, Ganika, you better find this animal as quickly as possible!

Enno: B-but, Chief…

Tashard: Enough! Anyways, detective, you'll be sending the evidence that requires lab work to Alexa instead, now head to the royal palace once again, maybe that animal went there!

**Investigate Fancy Chair.**

Ganika: Thank goodness, Percy is here! Come here, you naughty platypus! Give the paperwork back!

Ganika: Wait…what is this thing that Percy picked up? This isn't our paperwork, this looks like…a royal letter.

Ganika: It seems faded, let's recover it with the brush kit.

Ganika: Is that a flash drive here? What is it doing there?

Ganika: We should send this to Ash if we can!

Ganika: There is also a pile of cushions here, wanna rummage it out and see if there's a clue here? Great, let's do this!

**Examine Faded Letter.**

Ganika: So the letter is some sort of an exile notice…Wait, is someone getting exiled from Norway?

Ganika: You're right, there's the Fossegrim photo on this. The queen wanted to get rid of the Fossegrim for "saying uncouth remarks". That's an overreaction if I'm being honest.

Ganika: Let's speak to the queen about this letter!

**Ask Her Majesty about the victim's exile.**

Ganika: Your Majesty, we want to ask you about this letter. You banished the Fossegrim for…saying uncouth remarks? Like what?

Mariann: Oh, that. Yes, I did it because that creature went too far in his words.

Mariann: Remember when I said I'm a terrible player? You can say, he got fed up with me failing to tune the fiddle. He yelled at me, calling me stupid and obtuse.

Mariann: I threw my spaghetti on him for that, how dare he use that tone to the Queen of Norway like that. Even if he is a supernatural creature, everyone who is born in Norway is a citizen of Norway, and no citizen shall say a bad word to their monarch!

Mariann: His behavior is like the game of Skittgubbe: Impossible to tolerate. So I punished him by kicking him out of the country. My family isn't proud of what I've done, but I don't care.

Mariann: Now excuse me, I will be having my fishing trip in ten minutes, let me pick up my diamond heels and call my servants quickly.

**Analyze Flash Drive.**

Ash: Hey, detective, you like this song? It's called "endless misery", quite sad, but that's my groove.

Ganika: C'mon Ashey, you should listen to more joyful songs one time, like, that song called "Winning And Partying", or in short, "WAP".

Ash: First of all, stop calling me Ashey, second of all, that song is garbage, and third of all, please shut up because I'm talking to the detective here.

Ash: Alright, detective, you want to know the result of the flash drive? Don't worry, cracking that was as easy as it gets.

Ash: It includes numerous photos of your victim, like, tons. And guess who took the picture? It's one of your suspects, Børge Tofte.

Ash: Based on the file name itself, I think he's planning to release this to the media, to expose the victim's identity as a supernatural creature.

Ganika: Which warrants another visit to Mr. Tofte! Let's go find him at the park!

**Quiz Børge Tofte about the photos of the victim he took.**

Ganika: Mr. Tofte, you claimed that you didn't encounter the victim at all, but this batch of photos proves you otherwise, you were planning to expose him, weren’t you?

Børge: Of course, lady. Why wouldn't I? Taking photos of nature and stuff won't give me huge amounts of cash, so I decided to up it a bit.

Børge: When I was fishing around here, I heard a group of local fishermen claiming that they encountered a naked creature who plays the fiddle at the riverside. It caught my interest, so I researched it.

Børge: When I saw the results, I was shocked, like, this is a Fossegrim! So I sought to find this thing and tell this to the media, they're gonna be crazy about this, and I'll get rich from the pictures!

Børge: But it wasn't easy, that thing caught me, and tried to fight me to get the camera. This was the time I finally used my self-defense skills to get him off my trail.

Børge: Well, at least I got some juicy pics. With this, I'm getting a mansion for sure!

Ganika: Oh you better not, Mr. Tofte. If you killed him after he attacked you, maybe pictures of your mugshot will trend instead!

**Examine Pile of Cushions.**

Ganika: What is this? It looks like holy water. What is this for?

Ganika: Oh, there's a scribble in here, saying "May Grim be freed from demonic spirits".

Ganika: "Grim", huh? I remember that florist, Trude Bjerke, referred to our victim as that.

Ganika: Wonder what this holy water is for, let's ask her about this.

**Ask Trude Bjerke about the holy water.**

Trude: Welcome back! Did you change your mind about not wanting flowers? Or are you here to ask me about Grim again?

Ganika: We're on the latter part, we found this holy water in the royal palace, what is this about?

Trude: That…well, I am convinced that Grim is possessed!

Trude: Like, he's acting so odd, always talking about how every park in Norway will succumb in darkness, or the fact he kept running like a madman over a whistle!

Trude: He thinks that a deck of Skittgubbe is some sort of a spell, like, this is just too much, I had to help him.

Trude: I tried getting him to fish since it's peaceful and relaxing, but he didn't listen…

Trude: So I resorted to offering the holy water. I learned that if you pray enough whilst offering something holy, you'll get rid of the demonic spirits surrounding you. In this case, I prayed for Grim!

Ganika: If your other way to stop his "insanity" was to silence him forever, you'll pray for a lesser sentence later, since we're putting you in jail for murder!

Ganika: Our investigation has reached this part, and it seems every bit of our suspects knew the victim. Although none of them but the Queen and Børge knew his true identity.

Ganika: Out of all of them, who did this? Is this murder related to something supernatural, or is this just a simple killing?

Ganika: We should visit the river cave once again, maybe we can find more stuff.

**Examine River.**

Ganika: Detective, your eyes are sharp as ever! You found the murder weapon! Look at this spear, it's glowing green!
Ganika: Let's pick the blood sample on this!

Ganika: There is also some flashlight? It's broken, let's fix it. It may look unimportant, but a clue is a clue, right?

Ganika: I can feel we're close to the arrest, detective, we're going to bring them to justice!

**Examine Enchanted Spear.**

Ganika: Time to send this to Enno- Oh wait, he's suspended…I guess Alexa it is!

**Analyze Blood Sample.**

Alexa: I heard Dr. Wiesendanger got suspended for reckless behavior. Hearing this alone makes me chuckle a bit, he's like a stereotypical mad scientist in cartoons!

Alexa: Since I used to be a scientist myself, it was easy to work for me. This blood is your victim’s, but I also found skin cells here.

Alexa: The skin cells gave me clear DNA, and apparently, your killer has blue eyes!

Ganika: Their eye color is blue? Wait till their faces go blue once we capture them!

**Examine Broken Flashlight.**

Ganika: Nice, you managed to fix this in no time! You're a pro at this!

Ganika: Is that blood on this flashlight? Better send this to Alexa!

**Analyze Flashlight.**

Alexa: Detective, I'll be honest, I think I miss doing corpses…Although it's been minutes.

Alexa: Either way, this blood comes from a human, and I can confirm that this is an O- blood!

Alexa: I got a theory on why this blood is here: So, your killer may have used this to blind your victim, before pushing the spear on his chest without a fight.

Alexa: Then they accidentally dropped the flashlight, and when they were about to pick it up, they accidentally slashed their finger on the glass, hence the blood, before disposing of it, hoping no one will ever find it!

Ganika: That's a good theory, Alexa. Now that we know the killer has O- blood, let's catch them, detective, we could make them think negatively by taking them in!

Tashard: So, I heard you found all the clues to arrest your killer. Be careful, detective, chances are they could be supernatural themselves.

Tashard: Now go make the arrest, and don't fail it!

**Take care of the killer now!**

Ganika: Trude Bjerke, I admit I didn't expect you to be the killer, but we got you now!

Trude: What?! Are you seriously accusing me of killing my dear friend? This is just ridiculous!

Ganika: The truth doesn't lie, Ms. Bjerke. Admit it, you probably knew the fact that "Grim" is a supernatural creature, and you killed him for it!

Trude: ...Alright, I won't hide it anymore, IPS, I am the killer.

Ganika: IPS? So you knew about us!

Trude: Yes, and I'm no ordinary human either, just look at my true form!

Ganika: Wait, you…you're a supernatural creature!

Trude: Yes, a woodland spirit, to be exact. My true name is Trudee, I've been here for 2 millenias, protecting the forests from evil.

Trude: This Fossegrim, in particular, was a bad omen for the forest. I saw him trying to bring darkness to this forest, he wanted to destroy it, so I killed him before he did that. He was too possessed by the dark spirits to think straight!

Trude: My goal is to protect the light and bring peace to the woods, you have to excuse me for doing this, I am just protecting the forest.

Ganika: Alright, you may have done the right thing, but everything requires judgment. Follow us Trudee, our Chief wants a word with you.

Tashard: So Trudee, you were trying to protect the forest from the Fossegrim?

Trude: Yes, and to prevent darkness from spreading. The nefarious spirits are still roaming, and we need to get rid of them before they spread out and turn the forest into a miserable place!

Tashard: Alright, Trudee, we're letting you off the hook for the murder since it's justifiable. We also need you to show us the forest, we could help deal with the darkness you mentioned!

Trude: Thank you for trusting me, IPS. Follow me, we're going to detoxify this forest from the spirits of hell!
