Courtyard Gate

Courtyard Gate The courtyard outside the clinic has two gates. One is locked and can’t be opened until later, so proceed through the other one (after picking up the item near it). Be careful as you move up the path to the right, because there’s an enemy patrolling on the other side of the carriage ahead. Just past him there’s a switch to lower a ladder, but if you don’t have a weapon you’ll need to lure him away from it before you try to climb up. While you’re doing that it’s well worth picking up the Firebombs at the end of the path; they’ll be very useful in the upcoming sections.  [a 02]

The Clinic

Main Street When you get to the top of the stairs overlooking Main Street, you’ll notice a large group of Huntsmen slowly making their way up the street. While you can wait until they’re much further up the street before proceeding, it’s best to deal with them sooner rather than later, so that you don’t accidentally run into them further along the street. Wait until they’re just past the bottom of the stairs, and then use a Pebble to attract one of the rear enemies and separate it from the group; once it’s down, do the same thing again for one or two more until you feel comfortable finishing off any that remain.

Upon reaching the top of the ladder you’ll find yourself outside Gilbert’s house, by the Central Yharnam Lamp. If you have not yet been to the Hunter’s Dream to collect your weapons, use the Lamp here to do that now, because proceeding without them would be extremely difficult. Gilbert knows the area well and often has hints about places that you may want to investigate, so it’s worth checking back with him often. After you’ve been to the Hunter’s Dream you can also return to the Clinic and speak with Iosefka to get a potent healing item. For more information on Iosefka, refer to page 245, and turn to page 126 to find out more about Gilbert.  [a 03]

As you approach the Overpass you’ll be able to pick up a number of Pebbles that you can use to quietly get the attention of an enemy, or separate one from a group. A Huntsman will attempt to ambush you when you reach the other side of the Overpass, so don’t run ahead too quickly. Once you’ve dealt with him you can either head down the stairway, or drop through a gap in the railings for a small shortcut. [a 04]

The Clinic 06

With the blood still wet on your contract you’ll awaken in a small room in Iosefka’s Clinic with a small note on a chair in front of you providing the only hint of what to do. There are two doors in the room: one of them cannot be opened from this side, so go through the other one and head down the stairs. You’ll soon come across a Scourge Beast feasting on a corpse. Defeating it barehanded is difficult; your safest option is just to run past it. If it kills you, you’ll be transported to the Hunter’s Dream, where you can acquire your first weapons and then return to the Clinic to exact your revenge upon the beast.  [a 01]
