The world is one whole, having form only where it is divided. Some Lines are natural; others, man-made. Chalk, composed of the dead bodies of sea creatures, is a good tool for setting boundaries. Anyone who's been a student will recognize the smell anywhere. The locals inexplicably detest chalk. Despite its eye-catching whiteness, it is considered unclean and is popularly associated with bad omens and doom. Chalk-marked train cars are washed with river water before they are unloaded.

Notes

  • Chalk takes up 1x1 inventory space and stacks up to 10 times.
  • When bartering, chalk is worth 2 from Herb Brides, 2 to Tots and 3 to Teensies.
  • An intended mini game in the original concept of Pathologic 2 was the ability to condemn infected houses. This was eventually cut down significantly to only be present in the side quest given by Victor Kain after revealing to him a plot to embalm infected corpses, led by the shopkeep in Var's place.
