Pathologic 2

Day 1

On Day 1 Notkin informs the Haruspex of a child who has poisoned some of the Soul-and-a-Halves' dogs; Alma, Duke, and Wolfling. After learning more from Notkin, the Haruspex may offer to deal with the poisoner himself. If Notkin agrees, he will give the Haruspex a leash and ask that he give it to the child who killed their dogs. The child -- a Doghead called Lika -- can be found standing against a rock on the backside of the Gumstone, facing out toward the Steppe. The Haruspex may choose to let the Doghead go, or he may instead give the leash to Lika, condemning him to whatever fate Notkin has in store. If the Doghead is allowed to go free, he promises to speak to Alexander Saburov at the Town Hall to provide the Haruspex's innocence (though in truth he never shows up). If the leash is given to Lika, he will next be seen in the Soul-and-a-Half Fortress, where he will claim to not recognize the Haruspex, and speak nonsensically. If the Haruspex approaches Notkin about Lika's condition, it is implied that he was buried alive.

Day 4

In the early morning of Day 4 the meeting between the childhood friends - the Haruspex, Lara Ravel, Stanislav Rubin, and Bad Grief - takes place on the Basket by the Gumstone. This event permanently moves Lara, Rubin, and Grief to the Blood section of the "People" menu, and offers a temporary bedding beside their fire, which will disappear after dawn.

Pathologic: The Marble Nest

The Gumstone is located in the condemned part of the Town and is inaccessible during The Marble Nest.
