Scenario
Arnold has a lump on his head and cannot remember why Lord Erebus
has summoned him and must work out what he requires you to do.

Notes
  1.   Part two uses many of the same locations and characters as
     its predecessor, though Arnold's actions have some changes.
2.   The sailor is a red herring.
