Notes

Notes are items in Pathologic 2. There are a number of notes available throughout the game - some with directions for a quest, and others as flavour text for the world. Below are all notes as seen in the game.

For each note's item id, see Console Commands.

Farewell Letter
This note is acquired from Voronika Croy's body outside of the Cathedral on Day 7. It is worth 15 trade value at the Dead Item Shop. In the English translation of Pathologic 2, Voronika's name is anglicised to Veronica.

''A crumpled piece of paper. Smells like a marsh, for some reason. Touch to read it.''

""Who can tally the number of drops in the sea? Who can tally the number of tears in this grief?" I'm so happy it wasn't you, Father. - Veronica Croy."

List
This note is acquired on Day 2, when accepting the Haruspex's inheritance from Aspity.

''A list of names. The handwriting is clearly Father's. I need to touch this to read it.'' "1. Sticky, 2. Capella, 3. Murky, 4. Notkin, 5. Khan, 6. Grace, 7. Taya Tycheek, 8. Unknown steppe symbol"

Rusty Key
This note is acquired if the Haruspex is able to return to his father's home before the outbreak on Day 3. It is a note written by Vlad the Younger, but he may bring the letter to Big Vlad to ask about it as well.For further details on this note, see Rusty Key.

''And a note. Signed "V.O". To read it, I need to touch it.'' "I've found a spare key, but these key thefts (?) are becoming concerning. Your equipment is far from cheap, is it not? It would serve no one if it gets stolen. And do keep in mind that if our small arrangement is uncovered, I too will have to bear the consequences. -V.O.""

Kids' Quest Notes
Below are all notes that either drive the Children's Caches quest line or are found in caches but pertain to other related sidequests. Unless specified otherwise, all notes below are found in caches, and all hover descriptions are "Touch to read it. It's better to put it back after."

Dusty Note
This is one of three notes found during Act 2's introductory quest for the cache game. After speaking with Goldfinch just south of the Cathedral, this note can be found in the cache below the Stairway to Heaven in the Gut district. The note itself directs the Haruspex to the Marrow district's Tadpole Yard playground (just west of the Theatre) where children can be found playing Hide-&-Seek. Upon completing the Hide-&-Seek and gathering enough resources, the Haruspex can receive a Shmowder. "Found the last walnut. Hidden in the Tadpole Yard. Meet you there."

Tidy Note
This is one of three notes found during Act 2's introductory quest for the cache game. After speaking with Ace just south of the Victoria's Tomb on the Cape, this note can be found in the cache hidden southwest of the Bridge Square. This note identifies the Train Station as a popular meeting spot for children. "He doesn't know about the Station, I'm sure. So it's safe. Gingers allowed today."

Warm Note
This is one of three notes found during Act 2's introductory quest for the cache game. After speaking with Tatochka just northeast of the Crucible, this note can be found in a cache in the vacant lot on the Gut district's southern end. This note alludes to children's politics revolving around the Nutshell. "She left the Nutshell. The house is ours again, crafting in the evening as usual."

Hasty Note
This note will inform the Haruspex that Khan has descended the Polyhedron and is living in the Nutshell after Day 3. "Don't even think about going to the Nutshell. Khan got down, and it has solid walls. And he tries to cross them. And they won't budge. I saw it too. He's angry like a ferret."

Mysterious Note
This note is found in the first cache looted after 07:30 on Day 7. It instructs the Haruspex to meet his father's alleged murderer at Friday's Yard in the Skinners. This event will become available after 18:00 on Day 8.

The handwriting is childish and rushed. "The ripper's murderer will come to Friday's Yard when pigs fly. You hear that, ripper? We found him!"

Suspicious Note
This note is acquired from killing and looting the man that attacks the Haruspex in the Friday's Yard, regardless of whether he found the Notes.

This handwriting is childish. "Found your thief. He'll come to Friday's Yard. Wait for him there. Just hit him first, he's a nutso. 450."

Farewell Note
Given to the Haruspex by a townsman or a child standing by a cache. The townsman asks the Haruspex if he is the one the children call 'Cub'. The Farewell Note is from the townsman's daughter.

Written by a kid with a trembling hand. "We're gone, but our caches stay! We asked jerboas. It's their game now. The jerboas introduced their own rules too. Nyuta and Sleepy Head left shmowders in their Caches. You'd better find and take them, else the jerbaos will eat them. Maybe they already have. And shwmoders are bad for them!"

The Crumpled Letter is worth 20 trade value at the Dead Item Shop.

Crumpled Letter
''The paper is torn. The writing, barely legible.'' "Remember that time at the Scruff? You said fate doesn't choose people, but people choose fate. So I have. I'm glad you're not here. Would have been scarier with you. I-- The rest is unreadable."

Confession Letter
If I didn't know Lara's handwriting so well, I wouldn't have noticed her hand was trembling. "I, Lara Ravel, conceieved the murder of General Block alone. No one knew of my plans. If anyone called Rubin, Burakh, or Filin claims to be my accomplice, disregard them. I've done it myself."

Note
This item is not able to be obtained through normal gameplay. It is likely an unused version of the Rusty Key.

And do keep in mind that if our small arrangement is uncovered, I too will have to bear the consequences. -V.O.""
