After finishing the original game as survivor, I immediately downloaded the DLC. I figured gourmand would be a good place to start. So far the game has been much the same with some new enemies and foods. I met five pebbles and now I've made my way to the depths just as five pebbles told me to. But these tall tentacled ones wont let me pass. I thought the mark from five pebbles was all I needed?

You may have noticed his dialogue is a bit different for Gourmand

#

    Gluttonous beast, what brings you to my chamber? You are like no other messenger before you. Perhaps I have underestimated the ability for your kind to communicate my existence?

    I may have been too rash in bestowing the mark of communication upon you. With the recent traffic through my structure however, I would hesitate to believe that you will be my last encounter with your kind.

    You have the same problem as everyone else, from the microbes in the processing strata to me, who is, if you excuse me, godlike in comparison. We all want a way out. However, your particular...

    . . .

    rotundness,

    might well imply how little you seem to care. A simple animal ignorantly accepting its existence.

    I do not believe my intended purpose will be much help to you. I can however encourage you and your kind to leave my facility grounds.

    Unfortunately, the same locks that were supposed to prevent creatures from getting in, will now prevent you from getting out. Perhaps this strategy was ill conceived after all.

    Allow me to just...

    Go west, through the underground tunnels at the outskirts of my territory. You will find the gate to the world outside of it now unlocked.

    In return I ask that you encourage your community, through whatever method of communication you choose to employ, to also go west. Off into the wastes below, far away from me and my work.

    Speaking of, on your way out please use the access shaft.```

hmm I assumed he was talking about the fitration system when he said underground tunnels. but i suppose there are other underground tunnels closer to the wall?

#

or does he want me to go below the garbage wastes?

#

idk ig ill start looking

kind tulip
#

well this looks about right

#

tip if you feel stuck later on: ||if that part is confusing for you, you can focus on the other descriptions he said about where to go||

well in following what i assumed was a path leading me deeper, i ended up back in the garbage wastes, so i've decided to pay moon a visit just for fun

kind tulip
#

ive somehow ended up back in the shaded citadel i think im just wandering randomly at this point

#

im not sure how to go downwards without ending up back in here or filtration

#

unless i am supposed to be there after all? idk

kind tulip
#

Still have no idea where im going, im just giving up on looking for an exit to this place and going on a side quest to monch everything in the god forsaken percipitating world

pulsar vector
#

do you want a hint on where to go? monkcurious

kind tulip
#

If I keep bumbling around, consuming everything in sight, I imagine I'll come across it eventually. I'll give it a couple more hours, then if I'm still not sure, I'll ask. slugthumbsup

#

shouldnt there be an echo here? it flashed blue when i first got here, but nothing happened the second time

kind tulip
#

Alright its been a few days now and I cant seem to find it, can I get that hint slugclose

lapis kelp
#

its linked to your karma

pulsar vector
#

unfortunately the "underground tunnels" part is extremely misleading, i'd just ignore it for now

pulsar vector
#

how is it not monkwail

hunterthinking From my exploring, sky islands, farm arrays, subterranean, and the depths are all on the far west side of the map

#

Depths is a dead end (as far as i can tell), and I've done a fair bit of wandering around farm arrays and sky islands, so I guess I'll try subterranean first?
