Metro: Last Light Walkthrough Part 17 – Dark Water, Venice
Dark Water
The boat ride is calmer than what Artyom has been doing for a while but there are still a few things to worry about. First, he gets knocked into the water. After the Ferrryman pauses, duck or face forward and watch out for the ceiling beams that can hit him in the head. After that Artyom is introduced to something new, Creeps, a strange new creature. They are also apparently very tasty with beer.
Things just seem peaceful. After a while the Creeps will begin to attack the boat. Mostly they will just spew whatever it is at you but with increasing frequency they will get onto the craft. From there just fend them off as they approach the craft. When you hear the Ferryman tell Artyom to pass him the box then you have made it through this portion.
Venice
You finally learn the Ferryman's name, Fedor. He, with the others, brings you up to speed on just where the Reds went. They apparently made straight for the brothel. Head on down the pathway and over to the market. Move along the right-hand side. There is one passage with a pair of men. One will ask you for a bullet or two. Likely you can spare that so give them to him. After that just press on forward and you will find the leader, Simon, the fellow who jumped onto Fedor's boat. He will have some things to say to you. Look to the left of his desk, on the box, to find a Note.
With all that in hand head back down the stairs and go around the corner to the right. There you will find your way to the proper market square and find the entrance to the brothel. First though visit the Bullet Exchange and find the Gunsmith to change up anything you want to. You can also hit the shooting range to make some MGA if you are a little low on funds.
When you are ready head into the Brothel. Just go through and head down the stairs. You will Pavel just stepping away from some of the girls. You will also see the second note sitting on top of a tank with a little Spiderbug inside it. Grab the Note then move over to the train on the left. A girl will come up on Artyom. You can either leave and head out after Pavel or take a little time to watch the girl dance for 5 bullets (Pavel will be taking his time anyway). After that leave the Brothel and it is time to chase after Pavel.
