Discworld Noir Hints

There's something in the river. How do I get it out?

  • 1 of 5: You've got a grappling hook, but no rope.
  • 2 of 5: The Milka should have sailed by now, but they have lots of rope on wharves.
  • 3 of 5: Go to the wharf and get the rope from the bollard at right.
  • 4 of 5: Use rope and grappling hook on the thing in the river -- but it's too heavy for a human to lift.
  • 5 of 5: Go to Rhodan's workshop and speak to Malachite about the thing in the river, then give him the grappling hook and rope.
