Chapter III
Overview
Also known as the crown prince of high society, Venigni is one of the most iconic characters in the city. It is hard to notice this man and his striking haute couture look.
While his bold red coat may give a strong first impression, Venigni is actually a brilliant inventor and a very talented entrepreneur.
In keeping with the motto of Venigni Works, "We make tomorrow," just about everything you see in the city of Krat has come from the sleepless factory. When you take a closer look at the heart of Krat pumping energy through the city, don't miss the artistic details hidden inside. And beware of mysterious figures lurking in the dark waiting for you.
Past all the brick walls, brass fixtures, and maze-like paths full of steel pipes awaits the boss of the undying flame, Fuoco. Its name was inspired by the puppet master Mangiafuoco (which means "fire eater") from the original The Adventures of Pinocchio. Step into the lair of Fuoco and find out why this furnace boasts the title of "King's Flame."

Here it is: Venigni Works. Everything you see here belongs to Venigni,
the classiest playboy and most brilliant inventor in Krat. Just ask him!
Not just puppets. Almost every machine and tram in Krat is supplied from here.

That is...if he's still kicking.
