Quoted By:
[SEEKER OF THE CITY] Elbrus Alevtina. I-Corp usually writes names last name first so. Alvetina Elbrus in English.
[SEEKER OF THE CITY] You faintly recall hearing that last name in a magazine but if they're a corporate family, they're too small or niche for you to know a lot about.
>YOUNG GIRL PHOTOGRAPH (Might be useful for when you find an Elbrus? No immediate use for it now.)
"Hey! We unwrapped those paintings! Come look, they're kinda weird!" Lex calls out for you. You quickly unlock the PINK box (after giving it a quick pat for good luck) to pull out the documents inside there before heading over to see what the paintings are.
Both of them have been preserved pretty well considering the fact they were left in a bank vault for 300~ years. You'd chalk that up to this place being mostly airtight until it got broken into. Let's see- Okay yeah the first one you recognize immediately. Ashley and Wendy too both seem to recognize the person on the first painting on sight.
<span class="mu-b">Grey-blue hair is hard to miss when you know one specific family who has that as a common genetic trait.</span>
The woman with grey-blue hair is standing in the middle of a field of flowers (sunflowers you assume) that seems to stretch on forever. A crown of yellow flowers rests gently on her head and it seems like she's busy tying some to her sparkling white dress. She's pretty old, probably around her late 60s, but otherwise there's not a lot to say about the painting. It's a woman in a flower field.
>KRAKATOA PAINTING OBTAINED! (Gregory, Max, and Roland will KILL for this. Weird how you found it in I-Corp, though, they're more associated with A, C, and M-Corp.)
The second one, though, you have no clue who this belongs to. The painting is that of a very young man (probably 16 at maximum) in a grey and red suit and tie that he probably shouldn't be wearing for another 5 years considering his age. His piercing grey eyes feel like they're staring right through your own soul.
His face is twisted into a contemptful sneer that feels like he's judging you centuries after he has long since turned into dust.
>SNEERING MAN PAINTING OBTAINED! (Seems like someone in a more business focused corporate family. Alexis, Max, Maruyama or Quentin might know.)
Interesting. "Wrap them back up." While your allies work to wrap up the paintings again, you decide to flip through the documents you found. Starting with one that seems the most immediately useful: the EXPLORER'S MAP. It's a jumbled mess of random notes stapled onto a map that, due to age, is really hard to read but you'll do our best to transcribe it mentally.
There's only information for MOUTH OF GOD, ANTILA, зa мpтвe/GRAVEROBBER VILLAGE, DARK FOREST, and DANUS. Seems like the other towns and locations were too modern for this map (understandingly so.)
Your knowledge on I-Corp's dialect is spotty but it's good enough to translate most of it down. Seems like there's also info on another location here...
