22 Encyclopedia There's a gap where the name of that song should be. You should ask her about it, right now!
  • 309
23 Washerwoman "That said, if lodgings is what you're looking for, I've got a free room in the shack." Her soapy thumb points to the building behind her.
  • 125
  • 126
24 Washerwoman "Just us." She sounds tired. "It's barely a village anymore. We... *almost* don't exist."
  • 161
25 Washerwoman "Some things just don't *fly*, officer." She smiles a gap-toothed smile and smells the air. "Look around. Who'd go to church here? They built it three hundred years ago, must have been nicer then..."
  • 401
26 Washerwoman "This is my little cinderblock town." She nods with a wrinkled smile. "I know what goes on around here."
  • 67
27 Washerwoman "Me? No one. Just an old washerwoman. Mother called me Isobel, if that's what you're asking. And my married name is Sadie."
  • 73
28 Washerwoman "Hah!" She lifts the paper very close to her face and studies it intently. "I might be half blind, but it looks like part of the village is gonna be a street. The best part. The part we need to get out of our houses."
  • 346
29 Conceptualization The place is so pornographically poor it's not even funny.

33 Washerwoman "My kids grew up and left, like they do. The house is long empty now. I live in the small side attachment -- it's easier and cheaper to keep warm."
  • 653
34 You "I don't need much. This sounds just fine."
  • 139
35 You "I'm not sure it's appropriate for the RCM to accept free accommodations."
  • 129
36 Washerwoman "Mhm, that's exactly how they get ya. That's why we built our own cinder block houses on the seaside. So we don't have to give money to those crooks..." She looks around. "They might not look like much, but they're *ours*."
  • 32
37 You "One more time: I can just *have* the room?"
  • 38
38 Washerwoman "Aye." She nods and looks at the shack. "The room is pretty bare bones, but it's got a bed and roof over it. That's more than some folks have around here."
  • 654
39 You "Don't get me wrong, but 'bare-bones' isn't usually my style." (Point at yourself.) IsTHCCookingOrFixed("superstar_cop")

41 You (Nod.) "This could be the first chapter of my rags-to-riches memoir."
  • 142
42 You "Now this is real Revacholian hospitality. That Garte must be half-kipt or something."
  • 143
43 You "Unfortunate that incremental development hasn't *elevated* this neighbourhood yet. I see potential here."
  • 144
44 Washerwoman She waves her hand southwest. "Over there you can find... more of the same. Shacks and trees growing wild. That's the Pox."
  • 751
45 You "Who else lives in this... village?"
  • 46
46 Washerwoman "Well, there's Lilienne and her kids. A few new folks live in the house to the east." She nods her head across the courtyard. "But they're away right now."
  • 193

  • 53
53 Washerwoman "Well, there's that music. Music from across the sea." She scoffs. "It started a few days ago and now it's blasting, even through the nights."
  • 204
54 Empathy She's not telling you all she knows. Keep her talking.
  • 52
  • 55
  • 202
55 You "What else is on down coast?
  • 56
56 Washerwoman "Before you get to the church, there's some ruins -- an apartment complex, or some kind of electrical plant... Run down bunch of houses, empty."
  • 57
  • 58
57 You "Which is it then? Apartments or electrical plant?"
  • 205
58 You "Anything else of note?"
  • 59
59 Washerwoman "Of note? The old fishmarket up on the boardwalk. But it's closed."
  • 206
  • 61
  • 641
60 Washerwoman "No one, that's why it's closed." After a long pause, she adds, "It was once a bustling place, back when I was young and so was everyone else..."
  • 207
61 You "That's it? There's got to be more along the coast."
  • 208
62 Washerwoman "And now you know everything there is to know about this coast." She drops a bar of soap into the bucket with a splash.

66 Kim Kitsuragi "There was a murder in Martinaise." He points east. "She might be a suspect. We would appreciate your help."
  • 155
67 Rhetoric She's being evasive. She knows something.
  • 63
68 You "This isn't about the Union, you know. You don't have to worry about retaliation."
  • 69
69 Washerwoman "Ah, I should have known..." She shakes her head. "This is yet another Union mess. I'm not afraid of them, you know. We're not in the habit of being afraid around here."
  • 70
70 Half Light Enough of this! She better start talking RIGHT NOW!
  • 71
  • 158
  • 157
71 You "God dammit, I know you know something. This shit is important!" Variable["village.ww_blackc_halflight_tell_me"]
  • 72
72 Washerwoman "'This *shit*?" Her eyes with their cataracts look at you. "I'm not going to do your work for you, just because you've got a potty mouth."
  • 480
73 Authority No one? There's something about her... She's definitely not a 'no one'.
  • 114
74 You "Isobel, you must understand, this place *needs* that construction project."
  • 378
75 Washerwoman "She's good company. Knows how to talk to an old woman." She rubs her cold hands together. "At my age, you don't get a lot of quality conversation, so I really appreciate that about her."
  • 617
76 You "Where did she go?" (Move on.)
  • 79
77 You "Why do you think she left the bullet there?"
  • 94
78 You "Did she have any technical equipment with her, like radio stuff?" Variable["jam.abandoned_cabin_accessed"]
  • 95
79 Washerwoman "I don't know... further up the coast. She tried to leave quietly but the hinges on that door screech like a cat in heat -- woke me up. I heard her rushing in those heavy boots, heading up north."
  • 80
80 Visual Calculus It's a peninsula. She might be *trapped*.

  • 303
84 Washerwoman The old woman still sits in her chair, continuing with her chores. As she does so, she quietly hums to herself.
  • 104
85 You "You're still up?"
  • 86
86 Washerwoman "Yes. I can't really sleep anymore. Only a few hours a night. It happens when you grow older..." She sloshes the water in the bucket around for a bit.
  • 107
87 Washerwoman She nods, rinsing another piece of cloth.

  • 101
91 You "I heard she was a heavy drinker with anger issues. You ever witness that kind of behaviour?" Variable["whirling.klaasje_ruby_angry_drunk"] == true
  • 92
92 Washerwoman "Nothing of the sort." She shakes her head. "Sure, she was no stranger to the bottle... she fit in, that way. But I only knew her to have a beer on the beach while watching the sunset..."
  • 248
93 Washerwoman "She isn't what you'd call a *drunk*. Even offered me some, from time to time. Said it was part of the camionneur life. But I never saw her lose control of herself, the way some people do."
  • 238
94 Washerwoman "How would I know? She's a gruff one, but not violent. She doesn't go around toting a gun." She looks back toward her shack, thinking.
  • 583
95 Washerwoman "Not that I know of, though she was into nice music. She once showed me a few mixtape-milieus she'd made." She brushes her forehead with the back of her hand. Water drips to the ground.
  • 246
96 Washerwoman "Welcome to the fishing village." She opens her eyes. "Please lean in closer. I have cataracts."
  • 745
97 You Lean forward.
  • 99
98 You "Uh, what if I don't want to?"
  • 100
99 Washerwoman "Oh." A shadow passes over her face. "Welcome, police officer. We don't cause any trouble around here -- and we don't *want* any trouble either."
  • 266
100 Washerwoman "Tut, tut. Don't be shy now. It's going to be alright."
  • 102
  • 97
  • 90
101 Washerwoman "I won't be going anywhere." She side-eyes the bucket full of clothes.
102 You "If you can't see, then how did you know I was here?"
  • 103
103 Washerwoman "I still have a golden ear. Come-come." She beckons you toward her.

104 Perception (Hearing) The buzz of electric lights blends together with the slow rumble of ocean waves at night.
  • 324
105 You Don't bother her. [Leave.]
  • 106
106 Washerwoman She keeps humming, nodding her head back and forth to her unknown melody.
107 Washerwoman "My suggestion is -- don't. Don't grow any older than you already are. That's old enough." She smiles. "What's troubling your mind?"

  • 658
120 Washerwoman "Why would I do that? That's a fool's name. Are you a fool?" Her bony finger raises before you can speak. "Don't ridicule yourself before an old woman, officer. It's undignified."
  • 451
121 Washerwoman "Your parents must have had big plans for you." She pauses, measuring you up and down. "Wonder if you measured up?"
  • 450
122 Washerwoman "Quite a handle you got there." The old woman nods, with evident respect. "So many titles. One of them *double*."
  • 452
123 Washerwoman "Why, I guess I will, Harry. Aye, it just rolls off the tongue. I used to know a Harry. Strong lad, but dumb as a rock."

125 You "How much is it?"
  • 88
126 You "Don't know if I can afford another place to stay."
  • 88
127 You "There's this guy -- Garte -- who makes me give him money *every night* just so I don't die out in the cold."
  • 36
128 Washerwoman "No one is using it and god knows it's not much anyway." She tilts her head on the side, pondering over something. "You can stay there."
  • 35
  • 127

  • 134
133 Washerwoman "Don't make an old woman regret opening her house to the police." A key appears from under her apron. She hands it to you.
  • 145
134 Washerwoman "Suit yourself," she says, tucking some loose hair back under her shawl. "But should you ever need shelter, remember old Isobel and her shack by the sea."
  • 135
135 None

136 Washerwoman "Don't make this old women regret giving the police the key to her house." She takes out a key from under her apron and hands it to you. "Here."

139 Washerwoman "An uncomplicated man," she nods approvingly. "I take it that means you're interested?"
  • 698
140 Washerwoman "I can see that," she nods, a clever flicker in her eyes. "Everyone can see you think well of yourself. Now are you interested or not?"
  • 698
141 Washerwoman "You best not be plotting another revolution under my roof," she mumbles. "We barely got through the last one... But the room -- do you want it?"
  • 698
142 Washerwoman "Surely not the first one..." She looks you over, a clever smile on her lips. "So are you interested or not?"
  • 698
143 Washerwoman "Go ahead," she remarks sharply, "call people rude things. We've heard worse here. Now are you interested or not?"
  • 698
144 Washerwoman "Any day now." Her eyes turn to the sky. "I'm sure of it. Are you interested or not?"

154 Washerwoman "He's a sharp one," she says to herself and runs her hand across the washboard.
  • 67
155 Washerwoman "Would you now?" She turns to him. "I know how this world works, and it doesn't work when people tell on each other."
  • 643
156 Washerwoman "I'm not going anywhere." Her features soften. "Perhaps there's something else the village can do for you, huh? Though we don't have much here -- just garbage. And a skiff or two..."
  • 647
157 You "Okay, but I'll be back later if I find anything *suspicious*."
  • 156
158 You "'I see. You know something, but you've decided not to tell us."
  • 159
159 Washerwoman "There's not much *to* tell. People come and go. Now, was there something else?"
  • 480
160 You "There's got to be *something* here. Tell me."
  • 44
161 You "What do you mean?"
  • 162
162 Washerwoman "This is pretty much a non-place." She grins. "A gap. A blank spot on the map, just a cluster of nameless shacks on a nameless street."
  • 29
163 Washerwoman "The lack of wealth is the one thing we've got in abundance." The woman smiles cryptically.

  • 170
169 You "That doesn't make any sense."
  • 172
170 Washerwoman "Aye." Her eyes grow wide with glee. "Sometimes it's as though I've also gotten lost inside this nameless nothing."
  • 181
  • 182
171 Washerwoman "Then all's not lost," she replies, smoothing a wrinkle in her skirt. "As you can see, even in 'pornographic' poverty people make do..."
  • 185
172 Washerwoman "It's okay," she calms you. "What matters is we are still around. Still living our lives. Even in 'pornographic' poverty we make do..."
  • 185
173 Washerwoman "An old military hospital and its surroundings." She looks toward the buildings to the south. "Or it used to be, during the time of the Suzerain."
  • 178
174 You "The Pox? What's that?"
  • 173
175 You "It feels like I've heard the name somewhere, but tell me more." Variable["tc.the_pox"]
  • 173
176 You "Alright, there's another topic I'd like to address."
  • 187
177 Washerwoman "Now the area is criss-crossed with nameless streets and makeshift cinderblock houses. Shacks as far as the eye can see."
  • 179
178 Washerwoman "After the war it was turned into a goodwill hospital for shell-shocked veterans and folks looking for some quiet in the old sanatorium gardens."
  • 177
179 You "What happened to the hospital?"
  • 180
180 Washerwoman "The good will ran out." She tightens the scarf around her neck. "The staff left and the place was shut down. It's long gone by now."
  • 192
181 You "I'm lost too."
  • 183
182 You "I'd really rather go back to talking about the village."

  • 191
190 Washerwoman "Isn't that what people always think when they're lost?" A fleeting smirk runs across her lips. "Something *I* can do to help you find your way, officer?"
  • 628
191 Washerwoman "Maybe," she says with unnerving calm. "It would be easy. But right now you want something from me, right?"
  • 628

  • 50
193 Washerwoman "And then there's the drunks..." She sighs. "Not a pretty sight, but there's little we can do about it. Home is home, even for them."
  • 563
194 Washerwoman "I'm sure you did," she says with a peculiar smile and nods. "Nature keeps them in rotation. A new face pops up every now and then and an old one disappears and is forgotten. This is who we are."
