Lore:The Polaris

Lore	Entry #	Location
Our wisdom flows so sweet. Taste and see. TRANSMIT - initiate hel-blár signal - RECEIVE - initiate the Vampyroteuthis Infernalis frequency - STOP ROT BEFORE IT STARTS - initiate the Nørre Nærå Runestone lexicon - WITNESS Draug Island.	Entry 1	Location             The Polaris, (58,247): Right next to the row boat when entering the dungeon.
Listen, sweetling. The seagulls scream. "Draug! Draug! Draug!" The seagulls are agitated. They are accustomed to eating the bloat-rot flesh of the drowned dead. They are not accustomed to such food walking.	Entry 2	Location             The Polaris, (187,231): Mob hiding under stairs after first boss. You have to kill that mob, the lore will appear where he dies.
There squats a tiny island, accessible by rowboat, not so very far from Kingsmouth. Red seaweed chokes the rocky shores. Pods pulsate, full to bursting with vile nativity. The fog covers all in a claustrophobic embrace, swallowing sound to near silences occasionally broken by hungry moans. The seagulls scream.	Entry 3	Location             The Polaris, (291,311): In the area you first fight the The Varangian, behind some shipping crates.
When the fog came, a gargantuan container ship lost its way and ran aground, spilling its cargo over the beach. Men became monsters, either lurching as the walking dead, or breaking out in barnacle soars as the draug - the again walkers - also called draugur and draugar and aptrgangr.	Entry 4	Location             The Polaris, (317,192): Use the crate in the shipping container. Code to open it is 5756. Follow the drone that comes out and it will reveal the lore.
The corpse of the ship still rests here. See what lies in its hull. The seagulls have gone quiet. A crawling shape intrudes. It blots out all reason in inky black madness. The Ur-Draug. Not even seagulls dare to scream its name.	Entry 5	Location             The Polaris, (451,193): It's to the right as you go toward the helicopter after the Primordial Dweller. NOTE: If anyone clicks the helicopter to start the next cinematic, you won't get the chance to get this lore honeycomb.
