## Prologues

### Level 11 - November 15, 1904

*I’m here at Grytviken, eager to test the next batch of machines in these conditions of extreme cold. As always, travel has brought new faces to the door of my shop - among them are an Actress and a Princess. The Actress is part of a traveling troupe, while the Princess has accompanied her husband on a trip to help secure a trade agreement. Even with such different backgrounds, a conversation about chocolate was merrily shared by all. Perhaps not surprisingly, the Princess proves to be a much more demanding customer than the Actress. She favors a large number of very complex chocolates, but I suppose her generous tipping makes extra efforts quite worthwhile.*

### Level 12 - November 22, 1904

*Klara Gunbjörg Larsen has a long history here on the island. Her father helped found this whaling station, and she’s currently the magistrate of this settlement. I sense that she will be most helpful, particularly when I must find someone suitable to take over this shop someday. In order to prove if our business venture is viable, Klara has proposed a test. If I can **collect money from 5 customers in a row**, she will talk with me about the shop. She even hinted at a new ingredient for me to try...*

### Level 13 - December 15, 1904

*I have recently installed Klaus' latest invention: a topping machine. Though I've hardly had time to test it, it has already drawn more locals to the shop. These two fellows, a Fisherman and local Dockworker seemed most pleased by my offerings. They were pleasant men and even offered to keep their eyes out for any ingredients with which I may want to experiment.*

### Level 14 - January 3, 1905

*Klaus has sent the most wonderful invention for me to try in the New Year! It is a flying Zeppelin. The Zeppelin can pick up and deliver our wonderful chocolates to the far ends of the island. While helping me set up the Zeppelin, Klara offered to bring some blackberries for the infusion machine. These two gifts surely make up for the past holiday spent away from my dear Jarrah. I'm all aflutter to give these items a try!*

### Level 15 - January 13, 1905

*The locals seem to enjoy watching the Zeppelin as it completes deliveries. It has certainly helped to spread word of my little shop around the island. Shakelford Krump, a local Captain, loves my raisin-topped chocolates and came up with a fine challenge. **If I can earn $750 today** he will reward me with a case of exotic Chilean Raisins.*

### Level 16 - January 25, 1905

*We’ve got a storm front moving in. I wonder how Klaus is managing at Namche Bazaar, my next destination. He is a fine inventor, and I have been most pleased with the Infusion machine he installed for me here. How strange that I should wonder about Klaus, and not but 3 days later receive another letter from him. All of the preparations in Namche are completed. Klaus informs me that he will be departing for his next destination in a few days.*

### Level 17 - January 28, 1905

*How strange that I should wonder about Klaus, and not but 3 days later receive another letter from him. All of the preparations in Namche are completed. Klaus informs me that he will be departing for his next destination in a few days.*

### Level 18 - February 9, 1905

*Some of the wizened whalers, who have become regulars at our shop, have returned from Italy with cases of amaretto for me to experiment with. Their next trip is to the fisheries of the Antarctic. They have offered to bring back cocoa butter that has been treated in the extreme cold of Antarctica's water - but only if I can **go a whole day without losing a customer.** The whalers tell me the cold has an almost magical effect on the cocoa butter!*

### Level 19 - February 20, 1905

*My work here is nearly done. Klara has agreed to partner with Baumeister Confections and co-own the shop here with us. I think she will be a perfect addition to our company. I myself am looking forward to spending some time with Jarrah on my way to Nepal.*

### Level 20 - March 3, 1905

*Tomorrow I set sail for Nepal. Captain Krump has spoken often of his true love, an Indonesian woman named Ayu Korowati. When I told him that I may find myself in that part of the world, he entrusted me with a letter to carry for her on his behalf.*
