Let's Play Noctropolis, Part 10: Breadcrumb trail
Unaware of the ominous telephone conversation praising our l33t elevator riding skills, we follow-up on a lead Jenkins gave us and travel to Dynatek.
Recognition at last!
: What happened here?
: When did it happen?
: Has there been an investigation?
: I'm looking for the person in charge of the Incarnate division.
: I'll look him up. Thanks for your help.
We're now free to question him on every subject we've learned so far. He doesn't really add anything that we don't already know, but in case we didn't catch one of the many subtle hints that something might, just possibly, maybe, be up with the Sunspire Tower project, he sneaks another in.
It's probably nothing.
The Neon Noose is just down the corner, so let's stop by and talk to Jim.
David Duchovny?
: Are you Jim Drake from Dynatek?
: The guard over at your building gave me your name and said I'd find you here.
: I would like to speak to someone from Incarnate.
Probably just a coincidence...
: Where did Dr. Schwartz live?
: Can you tell me about...
THAT'S IT!
Wait, that's it? You did the lighting?
Now that's interesting... guess we'll go have a look at that Greenhouse then.
After a quit trip to Main Street to get directions (for some reason the Greenhouse will not pop up as a location if you don't ask the newspaper vendor or hall of records clerk about it), we head to the Central Park Greenhouse.
*sigh* Why is nothing ever simple?
Some tools, fertilizer, seeds and two bottles of quick growth formula... nothing really out of the ordinary. Being the friendly neighborhood kleptomaniac we are we nick the seeds and formula.
And so long as we're stealing, might as well break and enter too.
In we go.
Wait a tick, did you see that?
: What could a sick mutation like you have to do?
You fight like a cow.
: What's so special about you?
Seriously, Poison Ivy is a far better eco-terrorist villain and is at least nice to look at.
Bound, poisoned and alone... Is this the end of the second Darksheer?
Find out on the next update!

Let's Play Noctropolis, Part 11: If at first...
Without Stiletto to solve puzzles for us, we need to think fast. We have only 2 minutes before we die from Greenthumb's poison.
Let's check our inventory.
Hmm...
She's fine.
As we step out of the greenhouse, a bunch of papers swirl past us. The loud wind sound makes them very difficult to miss.
Just in case you missed Greenthumb mention he was going to the opera.
We'd follow after him, but with only a minute before we die of poisoning, we go to Shadowlair first.
You immerse yourself in the cool liquid. As the darkness surrounds you, you enter a state of drug-like euphoria, and somewhere in the back of your mind you remember that the Liquidark is restoring your health and recharging the Noctroglyph and Liquidark grenade.
Recovered from the schooling we took from Greenthumb's plants, we follow our only clue.
After a quick stop at the Hall of Records to ask directions, we head to the Opera.
There's also a hooker here.
But since we don't have any money, and can't get any during the course of the game, we ignore her.
We head inside to meet Tophat.
: I'm not going to help you.
: You wouldn't dare!
: Let the audience go. You don't need them.
: I didn't know the last Darksheer, but this one won't turn his back on a friend. You can bet on that!
: Why do you want the lens?
: Somehow I don't believe you.
Ok, we'll do it. It's not like we have any other leads to go on.
In our next update, we break into a maximum-security observatory and face off with Tophat.

You should have asked for a bump to the next page. Loading 3 updates takes ages.

Sorry. 
Aren't we like a dozen posts away from page 5 though? I just don't have enough readers.
EDIT: I meant posts.

saying 'bump plz' is a good way of getting the lurkers out of the closet

The cloak has a cowl that obscures his face, but Peter refuses to wear it in order to impersonate a city inspector.

Tophat's awesome. Probably the best character along with Master Macabre.

Well if any lurkers are reading, let's try and bump this to Page 5 for the next update.

No money for hookers? And Stiletto doesn't give you any relief?
GAME SUCKS.
What would Rance do?
