Soul-and-a-Half Fortress

The Soul-and-a-Half Fortress (Замок Двоедушников) is home for the Soul-and-a-Halves, a gang of kids with Notkin in charge of them as their chief. It is located in the Knots Quarter in the Warehouses.

Description
"Only rats live here."

- The Warehouses' subtitle

The Soul-and-a-Half Fortress was established by Notkin after his exile from the Polyhedron. The place used to be an abandoned warehouse where Artemy, Stakh, Grief, and Lara used to play when they were kids. Notkin chose to dig a lair by the Warehouses, which later became the headquarters of the Soul-and-a-Halves, a gang of children who are defined by sharing special bonds with their pets. Located in the Warehouses, the kids often clash with Bad Grief's bandits and Barley the Barber.

In both Pathologic and Pathologic 2 the Haruspex can visit the Soul-and-a-Half Fortress to buy a map of infected areas. In Pathologic 2, one is also able to trade with children to receive food, medicine, and other items.

Bachelor Route
As Notkin is one of the Haruspex's Bound, an Executor may be standing by the entrance on Day 12.

Haruspex Route
On Day 1, the Haruspex will visit the Soul-and-a-Halves' Fortress multiple times whilst completing the main quest and side quests. In the morning, he may hide here while running away from angry townsfolk. Alternatively, if the Haruspex avoids being chased by townsfolk, he may end up here while attempting to clear his name. Notkin will ask him to do a favour for him in dealing with a traitor and may later tell him to visit Bad Grief.

On Day 3, the Haruspex may be asked by Capella to check on Notkin. Notkin will also ask the Haruspex for Twyrine Extracts in exchange for allowing him to buy maps of the infected districts every day. If Haruspex is unable to provide the tinctures, he will have to trade Crowbars to Notkin in exchange for maps.

On Day 4, Notkin will ask the Haruspex's help in getting rid of looters in the abandoned districts and to bring him Crowbars as proof.

On Day 8, the Haruspex must ask Notkin for his thoughts on what to do with the auroch at the Bone Stake Lot.

On Day 9, Notkin will ask Haruspex to meet with him and advise him to double check what happened to the auroch from Day 8.

Changeling Route
On Day 1, Anna Angel will advise the Changeling to speak to Notkin about the allegiances of the Haruspex. The Changeling can also persuade Notkin to give her a Double Barrelled Pistol, one of two weapons she can use.

As Notkin is one of the Haruspex's Bound, an Executor may be standing by the entrance on Day 12.
