Fun Fact: Münter fell in love with her teacher, Wassily Kandinsky, and lived with him for the decade leading up to World War I (1).  In 1911, she founded the expressionist group, Der Blaue Reiter (the blue rider), with her husband and another artist named Marc in Munich (2).

         You find Münter in the apartment she shares with her lover for the decade leading up to World War I. Her lover is Wassily Kandinsky and she shows you a collection containing both of their beautiful paintings and tells you stories about Kandinsky, who is also her teacher. She also regales you with stories of founding the expressionist group, Der Blaue Reiter (the blue rider), with her husband and another artist named Marc in 1911 in Munich (2). She tells you that she doesn’t know anything about Chucky, but that she thinks she heard her husband mention him a few days ago. She offers to let you wait around until Kandinsky re-appears; however, she warns you it might be two or three days and you’re not sure you want to risk it because you only have 14 days total and have already used up a good portion of that time. Plus, you’re not sure if he can help you.
