Cleansing Heat/Dialogues

***On the helicopter…***

Tashard: The wind is strong, isn't it, detective?

Tashard: If you're still wondering why we opt on a helicopter rather than a plane…let's just say, we don't have any field to land our plane with, considering the case we're investigating is set on an isolated tribe.

Spyro: Ugh, my body is still hurt from that bastard Siegert...at least he's a goner now.

Spyro: Gosh, first, my dad…and now Siegert. I hate both of them, but I never expected them to go out that easily…although I was to blame for my father's demise.

Tashard: You aren't technically to blame, Spyro. Your father was dangerous and armed, you have to do what to do.

Spyro: Yeah, yeah, whatever. No need to lecture me for something that happened a long time ago, old man. Besides, I moved on from that.

Spyro: But gosh, my head still hurts after my crazy bonanza with Christmas…That spirit made me look like a complete idiot.

Tashard: That phase is certainly something, son. But enough with that, we're getting close to Mount Hagen. Remember, we are here to solve the murder of a kid, as reported by the ambassador of the United States, Andrea Weaver.

Tashard: Brace for landing, detective!

***Mount Hagen, Papua New Guinea…***

Spyro: So geezer, where the hell is the ambassador? Didn't you say she's gonna be here?

Tashard: Unfortunately, she had to leave for a diplomatic conference, but she will be back soon. For now, let's head to the west and collect the body. It's around there.

Spyro: Back to work it seems…now I wish I'm still possessed…

## Chapter 1

**Investigate Mountain Field.**

Spyro: That kid's dead alright. Poor girl, tied to a stake, waiting for death as the fire engulfed her legs.

Spyro: There's a distinctive mark on the back of her neck…looks like something from a patch. It may be unnecessary, but it could have something to do with the murder.

Spyro: Besides that, let's send the body to Alexa while we investigate the rest.

Spyro: As such, we can start with scouring through the leaves there. There may be something deep inside.

Spyro: There are also smashed pieces of wood near the rocks. You may restore that into one, rookie.

Spyro: You can do the work, I need to call someone…

Spyro: Oh for f\*ck sake, is there any signal in this goddamn area?

**Examine Pile of Leaves.**

Spyro: Knew there is something inside. What was that? A bead?

Spyro: Now what does a bead have to do with the case? All I know is it can be used to strangle someone, but our victim died from burning!

Cody: Wah! Outsiders!

Spyro: What the?! Who are you, kiddo?

Cody: I'm Cody Henao…The bead you're holding belongs to my sister, Lauryn. Can I have it back, mister?

Spyro: Your sister? Okay, kid, could you describe what she looks like?

Cody: Well…she has green eyes and often wears a crescent headdress.

Spyro: Oh no…Well, kid, promise me you wouldn't cry out loud alright?

**Inform Cody Henao about his sister's death.**

Cody: Wait?! You mean, my sister is…gone?!

Cody: UWAHHHHHH!!!!

Spyro: Damnit, this kid is loud!

Cody: Who would help me hunt rabbits on the field again…or play hide and seek with me…

Cody: I love my sister a lot, mister. She is the only one in my family…after our parents never returned…

Cody: But with her gone…I- I-

Cody: *cries uncontrollably*

Spyro: Jeez, comforting grieving family members is tough. Okay kid, listen, man up. I know how hard it is to lose someone like that, but crying won't help. Just keep strong alright? It's for your sister, you got to live for her spirits.

Spyro: Promise us, boy. We're going to find the bastard who killed your sister, and we're sure of that!

Cody: T-thank you, mister…You are kind, even for outsiders…I'll try to keep my spirits up…

**Examine Broken Pieces.**

Spyro: That looks like a mask…a tribal one, to be precise.

Spyro: The size doesn't fit the victim's, but it certainly looks like it belongs to her tribe. Try checking the DNA on the mask, rookie, maybe we can find a new suspect.

**Examine Mask.**

Spyro: Great, so who is the unlucky fellow that has their DNA all over the mask?

Spyro: A tribe leader? That makes things more interesting. The database says that his name is Ayaan Kila. Yep, the same tribe as the victim.

Spyro: Let's question Mr. Kila about the dead kid, rookie!

**Ask Ayaan Kila about the victim.**

Ayaan: You! State your business or stay away from our territory, outsiders!

Spyro: Slow down, chieftain. We're here to solve the murder of your fellow tribe member, a certain Lauryn Henao. Did you get any ideas?

Ayaan: What?! Did you say a member of OUR tribe has been killed?!

Ayaan: This is an OUTRAGE! Nobody dares to mess with MY tribe! It must be you outsiders who did this!

Spyro: Enough with the xenophobia, Mr. Kila! We're not the bad guys here, and if the ambassador didn't call us here, we would just leave you alone!

Ayaan: So that woman sent you here? I knew she was gonna be a bother to us!

Ayaan: But fine, I'll tell you about Lauryn. She was a good kid, alright. Her parents died a few years ago from an accident and left her orphaned with young Cody, so we villagers look out for them.

Ayaan: Look, why don't you just go to the old market and see what's in there? Lauryn tends to sneak out of the village to buy goods there.

Spyro: Sounds fair. Rookie, let's go to the old market!

**Investigate Old Market.**

Spyro: Bah, this market reeks of spice! My nose is runny now! I'm very sensitive to spice, you know.

Spyro: Maybe I should buy a face mask or even a gas mask for protection. But enough with that, did you find anything special?

Spyro: Bunch of documents? Don't know why they are here in this market, but since it's so out of place, it may contain something important. Let's dig it through, rookie!

Spyro: Is that a patch on the floor? It looks used, do you think this is the same patch that somehow has something to do with the victim?

Spyro: Let's play safe by taking the substance on this patch, rookie!

**Examine Documents.**

Spyro: Why am I not surprised? It's faded again! Wow, why don't we just open a bookstore that only sells faded books? Maybe that'll be the best selling!

Spyro: Rookie, go restore the contents. I'm not bothered to do any work currently.

**Examine Dossier.**

Spyro: So it's a formal document? Like…a dossier?

Spyro: Says here that it's an agreement of aid and support from the United States to Papua New Guinea, signed by Ambassador Andrea Weaver.

Spyro: The ambassador, huh? Well, we were supposed to look for her, so let's find that woman and question her about the murder.

**Meet up with Ambassador Weaver.**

Spyro: We finally caught up with you, Ambassador. Where the hell have you been? We were looking for you!

Andrea: You must be Mr. Perriades. First, I will say, welcome to Papua New Guinea.

Andrea: And second of all, please don't raise your voice at me. It is considered rude and inappropriate.

Spyro: Nevermind that, just tell us about the murder you called us for before!

Andrea: The young girl's murder…I send my deepest condolences to her. On the other hand, all I am aware of is that we Americans have nothing to do with the killing.

Andrea: Our relationship with Mr. Kila's tribe is…strained. But we assure you, we are seeking peace, not violence.

Spyro: If you say so, let the evidence rule it out, Ambassador. For now, don't go too far!

**Examine Used Patch.**

Spyro: Damn, is the substance poisonous? I touched it and it hurts like hell…I hope it doesn't affect and kill me. The last thing I want is to die on duty.

Spyro: Let's just send this alleged toxin to Enno. He can confirm whether it's toxic or not.

**Analyze Toxin.**

Enno: Good afternoon, guys.

Spyro: Enno? What the hell happened to you? Why are you green?

Enno: I was hoping that I managed to create a substance that blocks poison from the human body. The substance you took is venom, which is deadly.

Enno: And you know, I don't want you to die. You're fun to have around, man. But all I get is a failure, the cure only makes you sick more!

Spyro: What the…you did all of this for me?!

Spyro: I think I owe you thanks, Enno. But please, do make the cure quick. Now that you mention it, my hands start to hurt.

Enno: On it! But aside from that, I can tell your killer is an expert in first aid, since to create such a patch, you need those skills since this patch is manmade. All of this is exclusive to first aid kits.

Spyro: The killer knows first aid? I don't want them to cure me if I get hurt, rookie. They could administer me toxins if they can.

**Autopsy Victim's Body.**

Alexa: You want to feel something tropical, Spyro?

Spyro: Alexa, why did you dress up as someone who just finished sunbathing on the beach?

Alexa: Well, you just gotta dress up for the part, don't you? Viktor was kind enough to buy me all of this.

Spyro: I didn't know you and Vik were close. I thought Vik was more like a lone wolf type.

Alexa: What can I say, I have known him since elementary. Sorry if I never mentioned this, detective.

Alexa: And regarding this poor kid…The fire did kill her, but it was not the flame, but rather, the smoke.

Alexa: Just so you know, the majority of victims that die from a fire usually perish from smoke inhalation.

Alexa: Aside from confirming the cause of death, I also discovered a substance on the victim's neck. Enno already confirmed it's a toxin from the patch, but there's also coconut water on it.

Alexa: Lauryn didn't consume any coconuts before her death, which means your killer eats coconuts, detective!

Spyro: The killer's head's probably struck with a falling coconut since it probably caused them to go nuts and kill an innocent teenager.

Spyro: What do we have here…A 16-year-old tribe member has been murdered in such a barbaric way, and we have three suspects so far.

Spyro: Both Cody and Mr. Kila were sad about the loss of the victim…although the latter was more aggressive by blaming outsiders for it.

Spyro: And then we have the U.S. Ambassador, who insists that she and her countrymen are uninvolved.

Spyro: This sounds like a normal investigation, I won't lie…shouldn't we hand this to the local police?

Viktor: There's no point in that, detectives.

Spyro: Vik? What the hell you dressed like a James Bond wannabe?

Viktor: Don't focus on unnecessary things, Spyro. I am here to convey the information that this case is not as normal as you seem.

Viktor: Because the villagers reported that they saw ghosts and spirits around the area!

## Chapter 2

Spyro: Ghosts? Where?

Viktor: They said one walks often around the forest's waterfall close to the scene of the murder. Head there and find leads, detectives.

**Investigate Forest Waterfall.**

Spyro: I do hope those damn spirits don't possess me again, rookie! The last time I did it, my reputation went into the gutters for days.

Spyro: The view of this waterfall seems incredible too, but let's focus on the items we found here.

Spyro: There's a fruit basket right there, let's pick it up and find out what's inside!

Spyro: You found a mortar and pestle? Do you want to create a mixture or something? Just let Enno do that instead.

Spyro: Oh, that's a clue…Alright, go pick up a sample that is sticking out on that, rookie.

Spyro: Why is there a phone lying on the ground? Luckily, it's not smashed, but it sure is locked!

Spyro: Go use your coding skills, rookie. Technology isn't my forte.

Spyro: When you speak it, I don't sense any spirits or ghosts around here at all. Was Vik lying to us?

**Examine Fruit Basket.**

Spyro: A camera inside the basket? Looks like something professionals use to record, but you can unlock it. Might include something important.

**Examine Camera.**

Spyro: Alright, let's go watch this now.

***In the recording…***

Alexa: Good day, everyone! I am here in Papua New Guinea to showcase its beautiful culture!

Alexa: But not just that, I heard there's also a supernatural presence in this area! The last time I investigated that, it was in Sooda Isles and Mazunda!

Alexa: Either way, we are going to interview the tribe in Mount Hagen, so stay tuned for further investigation, everyone. This is Alexa Bommarito, with the Sooda News Network, looking forward to seeing you soon!

***End of the recording…***

Spyro: Sounds like a news headline alright. Knowing that this Alexa lady is around this area, maybe we can ask her about the crime.

**Question Alexa Bommarito about her presence in the crime scene.**

Spyro: Are you Alexa Bommarito?

Alexa: Yes, I am, detectives. The greatest reporter that will cover every scoop across the world!

Alexa: The tropical background suits me, such as drinking coconuts, although I prefer chlorine…well, just kidding of course.

Spyro: I was about to correct you that chlorine is a chemical, not a drink, but that's fortunate that you were joking.

Spyro: But back to the topic, we are here to ask you whether you knew anything about a murder. A young girl was found killed around here.

Alexa: A murder?! Yuck!

Alexa: Look, I may be familiar with some murder cases since I investigate myself, but hearing one is still shocking. May the dead rest in peace, and good luck with your investigation.

**Examine Mortar and Pestle.**

Spyro: Alright, now use the microscope to see the mixture, since Enno is too busy with something. He wouldn't even tell me what the project he was working on is.

**Examine Mixture.**

Spyro: You found a mix of cow blood, castor beans, and guano…Holy crap, this sounds like some sort of a weird elixir going on right here.

Spyro: Hold on, with how traditional this elixir was, and the fact that this was found around the fields, I suspect that this may belong to that traveler, Yelohpa.

Yelohpa: Your introspections sure are factual, detectives. Yours truly is impressed with that.

Spyro: Woah! Mr. Walking Thesaurus! Stop appearing out of nowhere! You scared me, damnit!

Spyro: Now that you are here, we have a few questions for you!

**Inquire Yelohpa if he knew about the murder.**

Yelohpa: What is it that you entreat? Supplementary elixirs to enhance your qualifications? Or is it another homicide investigation you wish to converse about?

Spyro: The latter, if so to speak. We found a dead body near the fields, and it was the corpse of a teenage tribe girl. Do you have any ideas for that?

Yelohpa: Of course. The news elapsed onto yours truly's ears from far away. Yours truly came here to aspire for shamanic ideals for the next practices yours truly may endeavor.

Yelohpa: May the young lady find peace in interminable life. On the other hand, would you like to espy the future, detective? Yours truly prepens fortune telling, and yours truly would appreciate it if you wrangle it.

Spyro: Like what? Another oar will strike my face by a crazy Scottish oldster?

Yelohpa: More like, be cautious of the mutinies contrived by the tribespeople. They will affirm that it was you lot who perpetrated the crime. Yours truly insinuate that you shall be prudent, detective.

**Examine Phone.**

Spyro: Remind me to never lend you my phone, rookie. Since you could crack it in seconds, I would rather not let you see the contents on my phone.

Spyro: But, we can see whether Ash could find out anything in this phone. Let's send it to them!

**Analyze Unlocked Phone.**

Ash: Look, we'll meet soon alright, just don't get-

Ash: Argh! How annoying!

Spyro: What happened? You sound like you have a burden to unleash.

Ash: No, it's just that my girlfriend…She can't take the long-distance relationship very further. You can't blame me for being too far when there is work to do!

Spyro: Jeez, this is why I will never find a partner.

Spyro: You know what, Ash, maybe it's better if we talk about the phone rather than your girlfriend's issues. Did you get any leads?

Ash: At least ask in a better way, Spyro. The way you said it is rude. But whatever, I'll tell you the results.

Ash: The phone belongs to a tourist who just lost their phone. But it's not important here, since the phone was on record for the whole time until its battery died.

Ash: The video recorded a strange individual wearing a mask, speaking in a language I can't recognize. This person is seen chanting, and then there's the victim, screaming in pain as the fire engulfed her.

Spyro: The f\*ck?! That sounds barbaric!

Ash: Yeah. But I think for the language part, you could consult Jennifer instead.

Jennifer: Hello there, darlings. Miss me already?

Spyro: Why do you only wear a towel?! Did you shag your beloved doll again?!

Jennifer: Uh, no? I was taking a swim on a lake recently. It's quite hot, you know?

Spyro: I seriously doubt you only did that, Jennifer.

Jennifer: Maybe we screwed a little bit in the lake, but let's focus on something else. About the language in the recording, it was tricky to find, but I deduce that it's Melpa.

Spyro: Melpa? What's that?

Jennifer: It's the official language in the Mount Hagen region, usually spoken by tribespeople. Your killer speaks it, detective.

Spyro: So the killer speaks Melpa? We better ask them the meaning of "you're under arrest" in their native language, rookie!

Spyro: Oh, and we better add this clue to both Cody and Mr. Kila. Both are from the same tribe, so they must speak the same language!

Spyro: We have two more suspects, and one is someone we knew before.

Spyro: That Alexa lady was very enthusiastic about the tribe, but I am sure she's hiding something.

Spyro: I don't trust Yelohpa a single bit. Sure that guy has a vocabulary as wide as my forehead, but what if his formality is said to sway us from his debauchery?

Tashard: Why are you two standing here? Go back and investigate the mountain field! There are reports that the tribe people are going to swarm the area for hunting purposes, so head there before they land there!

**Investigate Rocks.**

Spyro: This place has a weird stench on it. It smells like…iron. And if my biology classes didn't fail me, blood shares the same stench as iron.

Spyro: I guess the hunters already arrived here earlier than us. But fortunately, there are still clues left behind!

Spyro: There's a pile of shredded paper on the ground. You better pick it up and restore it.

Spyro: I found an envelope around here too. Let's open it, rookie.

**Examine Shreds of Paper.**

Spyro: It looks like a drawing on it. More accurately, a drawing made by a child.

Spyro: Look, it depicts a young kid and a teenage girl smiling. But why was this ripped?

Spyro: You're right, the only child suspect we have is Cody, and the girl in the drawing looks like his sister, Lauryn. Let's ask Cody why his drawing was ripped, rookie!

**Ask Cody Henao about his drawings getting shredded.**

Spyro: Kid? Do you have some spare time?

Cody: Oh, it's you again, mister. Do you want some coconuts? I picked some. It's a good distraction from losing my sister…

Spyro: No thanks. We are wondering about one thing…why was your drawing ripped? Doesn't that depict your beautiful relationship with your older sister?

Cody: I ripped it because my sister kept abandoning me, mister!

Cody: She often goes outside without telling me anything at night. I am scared of the dark, mister, so of course, I was worried when she was gone.

Cody: I hate being alone! No one in the tribe bothered to help me! I hate this feeling, you know?!

Cody: And now that my sister is gone, I will be forever alone…

Cody: WAHHHHHH!!!!

Spyro: Look, kid. Let's just hope that you didn't harm your sister for abandoning you, alright, because I'd hate to arrest a little kid.

**Examine Envelope.**

Spyro: Ain't this money? Was this blackmail or just a simple payment?

Spyro: Ah, nicely spotted…there's a seal wrapped on the money, and the seal has a picture of the bald eagle. That's the American symbol, rookie.

Spyro: So Ambassador Weaver is trying to pay someone? But who? Let's ask her about it, rookie!

**Ask Andrea Weaver about her money wired to the victim.**

Andrea: Good to see you again, detectives. I just came back from the village after teaching young Cody basic first aid. Please make this fast.

Spyro: Do you know anything about this envelope full of cash? Who are you paying, anyways?

Andrea: Ah, that. I planned to buy the tribe's territory. There's a natural oil reserve around their region, and we Americans need that, so we need their permission first.

Andrea: Of course, Mr. Kila refused to give his land to us. But we need the reserve, so I sought a young girl from the tribe, Lauryn, if I believe, to take the money and sway the villagers to share their land.

Andrea: I figured if I can use someone younger, they may listen. I even gave her coconuts to convince her more. But apparently, she snitched on Mr. Kila.

Andrea: We failed to gain the territory. But fear not, as in what the Melpa language said, "Kanda etemba", which means, everything will be alright. We will find another way to gain that, no matter what.

Spyro: And if that way includes murder, not even diplomatic immunity can save you, Ambassador!

Spyro: Seriously, I still fail to see the supernatural links in this case.

Spyro: Sure there are reports of spirits, but that's just reports. I never saw any spirits at all!

Spyro: Wait, do you hear rumbling sounds?

Ayaan: You! Get out of our territory at this INSTANT, outsiders!

Spyro: Mr. Kila? And the tribe? What the f\*ck?

## Chapter 3

Ayaan: We figured it out! You must be the reason why our tribe never finds peace! You are probably who killed Lauryn in the first place!

Spyro: The heck? Not only did you come here with torches and spears, but you came here and accused us of something we didn't do. We're helping you guys!

Ayaan: Nonsense! We feel disturbed by your presence. You might have brought bad omen to us, so be gone, foreigners!

Cody: Chieftain! Please stop your actions in an instant!

Ayaan: Cody? What do you want? These people killed your sister!

Cody: No, you are mistaken. These people are kind folks! They cared about me! Please, don't attack them!

Cody: I am sure they are innocent, chieftain! Let them handle my sister's death! I trust them with all my heart!

Ayaan: ...Alright, if you say so. Okay, outsiders, we are giving you twelve hours to solve this murder. Be haste, otherwise, we will assume you did it instead.

Spyro: What a melodrama…Thanks to Cody, we are safe from lynching. Alright, rookie, we can return to investigating this case, since we're already this deep.

Spyro: Let's go back to the waterfall since there must be something there!

**Investigate Waterfall.**

Spyro: Alright, be fast, rookie. The tribespeople hated our presence, so we gotta be quick before they change their minds and then hunt us!

Spyro: What? Did you find a treasure chest? What are you, a pirate?

Spyro: Oh, you're serious. Alright, check it out then.

Spyro: A missing tablet? Damn, I'm surprised how much technology we found here, despite this place being so isolated.

Spyro: Use your abilities to crack it, rookie. I'm not good at tech anyways.

Spyro: Why is there a bloody club around here? I doubt it's the victim's since there are no traces of her getting beaten or knocked out. Let's just check the blood to make sure.

Spyro: Crap, this place is so humid! Do you mind if I take a bath on that waterfall, rookie?

**Examine Treasure Chest.**

Spyro: Phew, the bath was such a relief. But it seems like you already unlocked the treasure chest. What were the contents?

Spyro: Nothing? That's a shame, but there's a scroll here. Let me read this…

Spyro: " I'm sorry, Chief, but I need this.", and there's a signature by Lauryn, the victim!

Spyro: Did Lauryn steal Mr. Kila's loot or something? Let's ask the unwelcoming chieftain some questions he can't refuse, rookie!

**Buzz Ayaan Kila about his loot handled by the victim.**

Ayaan: A reminder to you, outsiders. Find the killer in twelve hours. For now, I'll savor this coconut waiting until you're done disturbing our tribe.

Spyro: "Sorry" if you feel that way, Mr. Kila. It's not like we want to land here either if it wasn't for the case.

Spyro: Now let's cut to the chase. Tell us about this treasure chest we found. Did the victim steal from you?

Ayaan: She sure did, alright. That insolent child! How dare she steal from her leader!

Ayaan: She would often take my loot so she could give her brother a living. I get her goals, but at least do it morally!

Ayaan: Her actions caused me to not be able to buy medicine to cure my injuries. I had to learn self-aid from a pesky British reporter in desperation to save myself.

Ayaan: Not just that, I have to fast for days when all my resources from hunting went missing as well! Hunting is not easy, you know.

Ayaan: Don't get me wrong, even if Lauryn did all of this, she wasn't exactly a bad person. It's more like you outsiders who do.

Spyro: You can keep blaming those outside your tribe as much as you want, Mr. Kila. It would've been ironic if it was YOU who killed your member instead!

**Examine Tablet.**

Spyro: Since you already unlocked it, might as well send it to Ash. Let them deal with the pain of technology.

**Analyze Tablet.**

Spyro: How hard was it to deal with that, Ash?

Ash: Unlike you, Spyro, cracking this is child's play. I managed to extract vital information in just under ten minutes.

Spyro: Tch, don't brag then!

Ash: You asked for it, Spyro. The information I found is regarding Lauryn and Cody's parents. As they said to you before, their parents died in an accident, right?

Ash: I found out that they were murdered! And the perpetrators are never caught since they are outsiders to the village. I think this is why Mr. Kila hated outsiders so much.

Spyro: Damn, that's some dark stuff going on!

Ash: Also, if you wonder whose tablet this is. The brand is Britain-exclusive only, and there's only one Brit in your suspect list.

Spyro: That journalist, Alexa Bommarito! We got to ask her about all of this snooping, rookie!

**Converse with Alexa Bommarito about her research about the victim's parents.**

Spyro: Ms. Bommarito! We need to talk!

Alexa: You sure? I am about to depart, you know? My flight will come soon.

Spyro: No time for that! We need to ask you about your tablet since we found extensive information regarding the victim's personal life!

Alexa: You found that? Alright, I'll tell you everything I know.

Alexa: During my time here, I befriended Lauryn. She was very welcoming compared to the other tribespeople. One day, she confided in me about her dead parents.

Alexa: My reporter instincts kicked in. I suspected foul play in their deaths, so I dug deep into the net to find out what happened, and the truth surfaced.

Alexa: I showed the results to Lauryn, but she didn't take it well. I never asked her permission, so I can't blame her. But she told me to leave the village or else she'll tell the other tribespeople to do so.

Spyro: If you killed her for that, the news will be filled with your arrest instead!

**Examine Club.**,

Spyro: Let's send this blood to Enno, rookie! Just imagine if this is just animal blood. We're duped if that's the case!

**Examine Blood.**

Spyro: The blood matches that of Yelohpa, the masked shaman.

Spyro: Why was his blood on this club? I don't know you, but this warrants a second interrogation!

Spyro: And knowing that he's not as easy to find, we can just use the same method we did in Nepal.

**Question Yelohpa about his bloodstains on a weapon.**

Spyro: You came here at last, Mr. Yelohpa. Why was it so hard just to summon you?

Yelohpa: Seclusion is essential, detective. Yours truly only converse through the wild.

Spyro: Weird choice in life, but whatever, that's your choice anyways. Mr. Yelohpa, we wanted to ask you about the blood in this club. What happened?

Yelohpa: Yours truly undergo affliction from the lynching of the tribespeople. The blood came from there.

Yelohpa: As yours truly aberrated through the moonlight, yours truly heard the voice of a young girl, vociferating that there was an intruder. The girl hysterically implicated yours truly as an evil spirit because of the mask yours truly exhibited.

Yelohpa: The villagers furnished themselves with weapons and walloped yours truly to a pulp. The young girl ultimately recognized that yours truly is just a human, and made an effort to repress everyone, but to no avail.

Spyro: Did you hold a grudge against either that young girl or the villagers for the harsh treatment?

Yelohpa: Certainly not. In reality, yours truly took the treatment as a precept on life, to stay unpretentious regardless of any remonstrances yours truly face. Equilibrium is invariably a preference.

Spyro: It won't be as peaceful as you think if you killed Lauryn as a way to get back to the village, Mr. Yelohpa!

Spyro: Okay, we finished talking to everyone, and most revealed something regarding the victim.

Spyro: Mr. Kila accused Lauryn of stealing his portions so she could benefit a good life for her brother.

Spyro: Lauryn was livid at Ms. Bommarito for digging into her personal life, and Mr. Yelohpa was beaten all because of Lauryn's hysterical assumption.

Spyro: Even with this, we still need more evidence to arrest the correct perpetrator, so let's head back to the markets, rookie!

**Investigate Stall.**

Spyro: My goodness, since when does this market reek of spice? Don't tempt me to take some, damnit! I love spice!

Spyro: Alright, let's be fast then. What is that thing you're holding? A rock kind of thing? It looks prehistoric enough.

Spyro: Ah, so that's called a flint, which is used to make fire. Had you let me speak for a few seconds, I would say it myself, genius.

Spyro: But you're right, what are those specks on the flint? Is that blood? Pick a sample, rookie!

Spyro: And you also found a bunch of broken stuff. Go fix it then, I am not doing it.

Spyro: By the way, do you mind if I peek at some of the spices a little bit…like just a minute?

**Examine Flint.**

Spyro: Alright, go send the blood to our favorite madhouse, Enno. He'll love it, of course.

**Analyze Blood Speck.**

Enno: One more drop of ethyl acetate and everything will be- Drats! You scared me, Spyro!

Spyro: What? What did I do, mad doctor?

Enno: I was about to create immune blood! This is also vital for your cure, you know? If you made me panic like this, a wrong mix and it'll turn into something regrettable!

Spyro: Like what exactly?

Enno: Like smearing yourself in durian. That's how bad it was.

Spyro: Ain't that bad to me. Durian seems delicious enough.

Enno: And then you said I am the nutcase, Spyro. Your tastes are different from mine…

Enno: But let's talk about the blood you sent to me. It wasn't the victim, but rather, the killer.

Enno: I found fingerprints and Ash told me it belonged to the victim, so the victim might've slashed the killer a little bit as a sign of struggle.

Enno: According to my analysis, the killer has B- blood, detective!

Spyro: At this point, I won't B-negative about the arrest, rookie, since we're catching on to them!

**Investigate Smashed Pieces.**

Spyro: That looked like a necklace. Not gonna lie, the design is great.

Spyro: This looks cultural enough, so we might as well ask Ryan about this.

**Analyze Necklace.**

Ryan: Guess who finally got another chick?

Spyro: Don't care, didn't ask. You'd probably have a higher chance of breaking up than ending up officially, Ryan.

Ryan: That's harsh, man. I am confident that this will stay official since the chick was kind enough.

Spyro: Look, Ryan, I don't give two hoots about your dating life, just tell us about the necklace already!

Ryan: Fine, it's just a simple tribal wooden necklace, nothing supernatural on it.

Ryan: I can assure you it belonged to your killer since I found some fibers that belonged to a coconut shell. Your killer ate coconuts, didn't they?

Spyro: Our killer wears a wooden necklace? That narrows the suspect list a bit, but I'm sure the next fashion for them is the handcuffs on their hands!

Spyro: We're close to getting to the killer, rookie. Let's put this murderer behind bars!

Spyro: Whether this has something to do with the supernatural or not, it's up to us to find out!

**Take care of the killer now!**

Spyro: Game's over, Kila. We know you killed Lauryn. Why would you burn a 16-year-old to death?

Ayaan: You know nothing. She had to go. She was inhumane!

Spyro: What do you mean?

Ayaan: I couldn't sleep the other day and went for a night walk to clear my head. I noticed someone sitting by a bonfire near the mountain. It was Lauryn. She was... she transformed into a monster.

Spyro: What kind of monster?

Ayaan: She turned into a wolf-like creature! I couldn't believe my eyes! I had to protect my tribe. As hard it was, I had to do what's right to get rid of the devil in this community.

Spyro: Well, you can now live with the thought of killing an innocent werewolf child. Good for you.

Spyro: What should we do to this guy, rookie? He certainly knew about werewolves, and I don't think this is good.

Tashard: In that case, we'll handle him with something that'll make him forget about the incident, Spyro. We have to let him scot-free, but at least he'll forget about the supernatural.

Tashard: The last thing we want is for the tribe to hunt the werewolves, which could be beneficial to Mohandas' and his cronies.

Tashard: Don't forget our main mission here, detective. We need to learn more about Zdenko Vujčić, and the extent of his crimes. Now go back to work, since we still have a lot of things to do!
