Chapter 4: Confession

The unique shape of this island may have significance. Perhaps large fish and similar creatures frequent the area?

As you sail, you discover an island with a unique shape. Dock to find out if the villagers have any clues. Since islands are far apart in this area, anyone sailing with a vehicle less equipped than the Sub-C has to stop here for supplies.

Tunacola

Tunacola is a small fishing village with friendly residents. If they have seen anything out of the ordinary, they tell you. A few of the Tunacolans are among the oldest people on the island.

Perhaps you should sail to the east and catch up to the mysterious C-Islander. C-Island is a small place—it might be someone you know.
Fish grow big around here. If Dr. J weren’t missing, you might think about dropping a line to see just how big they are.
Following the observances of one of the Tunacolans, it’s a good idea to sail eastward and see if you can find something.

The Belly of a Whale

As you travel eastward, a Whale swallows the Sub-C. You heard that they grew big around here, but this is ridiculous!

Baboo! Dr. J’s assistant is the C-Islander who was searching for you. While you were in Miracola, he was swallowed by this Whale.

This place is a maze, but nothing an experienced adventurer like Mike can’t handle.

Baboo dropped a Lighter somewhere in the Whale. With it, you can light a fire and force the Whale to sneeze you out. Search for it.

Reach the Lighter by heading north as far as you can, then heading west. Wrap around south until you reach the spot shown in the screenshot above. Push through the wall here, head south until you dock, then head east, and the Lighter is yours!
