Conversations with the Dead title

Anonymous German soldier on We Can See In The Dark... Can You?

Unknown on We Can See In The Dark... Can You?

First meeting remark

Are they following you? You don't have any
lights, do you? Stay away...

they
Those things, those rats with wings, haven't
you seen them? They swarmed my torch
before I could put it out ...

torch
I didn't think to put it out. I was such a
fool.

lights
They swarm to lights, biting and scratching
anything in sight.

name

I don't remember my name. It's been so long
since I heard it. I don't even remember my
family, or my home.

family
I think my mother was dead. My father was
in the party.

party
The Nazis. My father was so proud I was
selected to go on this expedition.

expedition
We never even knew why we were here. I
thought we were sent to plan an invasion of
the southern United States from Mexico, but
then we ended up in the damn jungle ...

invasion (or) United States (or) Mexico
There was a lot of speculation about what
we would do in Mexico, but we were all
wrong- and still don't know the real answer.

jungle
I hate the jungle. It was never humid and
sticky like this at home.

home (or) mother (or) father
I don't know, I can't remember anything.
Nothing. Why do you keep asking questions?
Why can't you leave me alone?

death

I was the first man down the ladder, and
suddenly I was surrounded by these
shrieking things. I ran, but they followed
me ...

ladder
The same ladder you must have come down
to get here.

Muller

I remember that name ... for some reason I
don't think I liked Muller, whoever he was.

Gunther (or) Behrens (or) Joachim (or) Claude (or) Friedrich

That name sounds familiar, but I don't know
why ...


Any word that doesn't trigger a new conversation will elicit the following replies:

What? WHAT?

I don't understand you.


Additional Notes

This conversation will only occur if you have your Flashlight off.

In version 2.0 of Pathways Into Darkness the word "damn" was dropped from the following Conversation:

We never even knew why we were here. I
thought we were sent to plan an invasion of
the southern United States from Mexico, but
then we ended up in the damn jungle ...

Obviously another attempt to tone down the language in the game.

This conversation also contains another long thread starting from name, to family, to party, to expedition and ending with invasion (or) United States (or) Mexico.

No response to the name Hans this time. First Gunther now Hans.

No second meeting remark.
