I (OmegaPhat, 19/F/Cali) would like to express my deepest gratitude to you (Vimmy From The Block, ?/?/?) sir/ma'am that is Vimmy From The Block (Vimmy From The Block, ?/?/?) for manufacturing this fantastic, and detailed walk through of how to finish the game "Detective Grimoire." Upon first laying my (OmegaPhat, 19/F/Cali) eyes upon this absolute masterpiece of writing, I (OmegaPhat, 19/F/Cali) was absolutely awestruck by how eloquently put your (Vimmy From The Block, ?/?/?) descriptions were while also leaving no details behind. By following this walk through I (OmegaPhat, 19/F/Cali) have managed to ascend to even greater heights that shouldn't even be possible by a mere mortal such as myself (OmegaPhat, 19/F/Cali). So I (OmegaPhat, 19/F/Cali) would like to extend my utmost thanks to you for now I have surpassed even God (God, ?/?/Divine Realm) themself.
