Orkla: Dragon Con Detective Walktrough

Today something new. KaseScenarios.com released a new free OSINT Scenario: Orkla: Dragon Con Detective. It's solving time! Spoiler alert! Stop here if you haven't played!

Nearest Coca Cola Machine

Orkla: I love Coca Cola's Freestyle machines. I'm currently at The Westin Peachtree Plaza in Atlanta, Georgia. I'm here to do some research about the area for the next years Dragon Con. Apparently Dragon Con has a lot of talented hackers as well that could help me. All this work got me really thirsty, so I want to know the name of the place closest to me with a Coca-Cola Freestyle machine. Can you find the location? I only need the name of the restaurant or location.

There's a Coca-Cola freestyle machine locator.

I am searching for a vending machine in Atlanta, Georgia. The zip code of the Orkla's area is 30303.

Inputting these 3 info, the website shows a list of locations where you can find the cocacola machines. There are a few located in Peach street, but the nearest to Orkla's location is the "Firehouse Subs".

Sherlock Holmes Fan Club Location

Orkla: I...ehm...acquired this audio clip from the Sherlock Holmes Fanclub at Dragon Con 2024. Apparently they were having some sort of secret meet up. Can you figure out where they went? I just need the name of the place, I can find the address myself.

Audio Transcription: All right y'all this year we are doing our member only meetup at outgoing bongo skip, that's outgoing bongo skip. See you there!

Based on my experience there is a site called WhatWords that associates three words to a location. In this case outgoing bongo skip will give the exact location.

As you can see from the map, Trader Vic's the place.

Hidden Bronze Statue

Orkla: To the right of this picture, out of sight, there's a bronze statue. What is the name of the statue?

We are indeed in a crossing on Baker St in Atlanta, Georgia. Searching on google maps we can find it and thanks to street view see the statue in a near plaza.

Here it is. The statue is located in the so called SunTrust Plaza. Searching for suntrust plaza statue on web lead to this link. The image title contains the actual name: Ballet Olympia.

Orkla: Yes, that's it! And who designed this statue?

On flickr somone posted a photo of the SunTrust Plaza with the following description:

Atlanta - Downtown: SunTrust Plaza - Ballet Olympia Ballet Olympia, located in SunTrust Plaza, was conceived and designed by sculptor John C. Portman in 1992 from Paul Manship's three-foot bronze figure, Maened, from 1953. The two nude female bronze figure, each standing approximately 25-feet tall, are mounted atop 8-foot tall g ranite clad steel bases.

The Marathon

Orkla: Excellent! You're actually really good at this. Hmm..I'm tempted to actually give you a real case instead of these made-up ones. I'm currently working with an insurance company that suspects that one of their clients have faked a knee injury for monetary gain. We think they attended the Boston Marathon some time between 2013 and 2018. They are male, late 30s and from Hong Kong. This is supposedly an image of them reaching the finish line. Can you confirm their name for me?

Boston Marathon athletes times are archived on a public registry. As you can see url contains the year, you can change it to the desired result. In 2017 the athlete number 3543 from Hong Kong, 38 years old: Ngai, Peter Yuen Man reached the finish line.
