New objective: Pursue the attackers into the subway

Ignore your allies because you do not have to talk to them. Instead, head to the stairs leading to the subway station. After a while the game will load further part of this chapter.

New objective: Find and kill your attackers in the Subway

Move forward, reaching the place where you'll get to know another important game element for the first time. As you probably remember, all Darkness powers, including your darkling, can't work correctly in light places. So starting from this point you will have to remember about destroying surrounding light sources. To destroy the first light (and all subsequent) you can use your weapons or the right tentacle (middle mouse button). After this action go to the gate, grab it (Q) and then pull it (rhythmically E).

Ignore your darkling and turn right, destroying all lights along your way. Watch out, because on the other end of the corridor new enemies will appear soon. You can shoot them from a distance or (after destroying all lights), move close to them and help yourself with tentacles. Do not forget about eating their hearts. After securing the area, choose the only passage leading to the subway station. You'll encounter new enemies there, but it is easier to eliminate them because your darkling should help you with this.

Use the stairs leading to the platform and quickly hide behind one of the pillars. If possible, take out all light sources from a distance and then proceed to attack enemies. You won't find here too many objects that can be thrown at enemies, so you have to rely on firearms and attacks with your right tentacle. Be careful, because at least one of the bandits uses shotgun. After eliminating him, you should of course pick up this weapon.

After securing the first platform go back to the stairs, which you used to get here. Use one of the side passages to get under the stairs. It is very important, because you'll find there another relic (Yhwh's Lament - 2/29). Now you can get back to previous battlefield and move forwards (you can choose left or right passage). Along your way you'll find another Talent Shrine, with which you might interact, especially if you gathered many essence points since your last shrine visit.

You can now start cleaning another part of the platform. Use same tactics as previously, so use pillars as covers and do not forget about destroying lights. WATCH OUT for enemies standing on tracks to the right (screen above). The easiest way to get rid of them is to get closer and thus forcing the train to come. These are not all enemies, because more thugs occupy a platform visible in the distance. I recommend using firearms here, because it is easier to win that way.

Get to the platform which was occupied by bandits (do not forget about consuming their hearts) and jump down to the right track suggested by your darkling. You'll see more enemies in the distance but you do not have to eliminate them personally. Move toward them, forcing another train to come and displaying spectacular cutscene.

New objective: Pursue the enemies through the tunnel

Turn right and go through the subway car, which was involved in the accident. Watch out, because right after leaving the car, you'll come up on the first bandit. What's more, more enemies are lurking a little further. I advise to keep an eye on your character during this fight, because your opponents are well equipped and additionally they may hide behind covers. Keep moving forward, remembering about collecting ammo and eating enemies' hearts. Eventually you have to get to the place where you'll see Jenny again (and a train after a while).

Wait until you'll be moved to a place that resembles a mental hospital. Keep going forward, optionally talking to people along your way. At the end head toward the exit door.

New objective: Meet up with Tony

Wait until you get back to reality and your tentacles deal with attacked bandit. Move forward, reaching the place where you'll meet fat Tony. Press the 1 key to start a conversation with him. After few moments this chapter will be over.
