That was really interesting~ I'm going to try and fit the Gold Heart Piece and the Silver Heart Piece in the Missing Heart Left Half and Missing Heart Right Half on the Buried Lockbox I found at Cyancreek Lake, and see if that does anything!

You arrive back at Cyancreek Lake before the {Buried Lockbox}. Using both the [Silver Heart Piece] and the [Gold Heart Piece], you put both halves into the vacant heart-shaped space. They both fit perfectly together, and you hear a click as the box is unlocked.

Items: [Silver Heart Piece] and [Gold Heart Piece] have been removed from the Team Inventory.

You open the box and inside is a key with a heart emblem on it. You pull it out and take it with you.

Item: [Heart Key] has been added to the Team Inventory.

Lets go and interview Casha the Eevee. I'm really curious to see if she knows anything about those bowls. Sure they have to do with Adis, but being the town's potter...maybe she has some intel?

Interview Rapport: POSITIVE
+1 Same evolution stage

You find Casha the Eevee at her store, and it seems the Eevee, while a little naive, is happily busy creating yet another clay jug to add to her stock. You introduce yourself and she smiles back at you.

"Hello, Viridian!" Casha smiles, putting aside the clay jug she's working on. "Were you interested in buying something?"

You then explain that you're trying to understand the purpose of the Ivory Bowls the Emissaries have found. She looks at the Ivory Bowl you have curiously as you hand it to her so she can inspect it. Her facial reaction clues you in that it doesn't seem like she's seen it before, nor does it come from her store.

"Wow, this is pretty neat!" Casha tells you, admiring the bowl from every angle. "I really have to admire the handiwork on this! The symmetry is flawless and..."

And then something grabs her curiosity.

"Whoa, wait a minute!" She exclaims, very interested in the bowl. "How is that possible!?"

Her paws were still muddy and dirty from working on the clay jug, but as she handles the Ivory Bowl, you realize it at nearly the same time Casha does.

It's impossible for the Ivory Bowl to get dirty.

"That's amazing!" Casha smiles, testing it again by rubbing it with her muddy paws, only to see that not even a trace of mud and clay seems to stick to the bowl. "It stays so white and clean no matter what I do to it! I mean, I would have cleaned it off for you if I did get dirty, but-!"

She laughs a bit, but she still admires the bowl, checking it out one last time.

"This is really a special bowl," Casha tells you. "Now, I've worked on a lot of pots and stuff before, but something about this almost seems... supernatural. Crazy, right!? But really, it has a supernatural cleanliness that I've never seen before. I wish I could make a bowl like this, but hey, you've encouraged me to at least try!"

She tries to hand the bowl back to you, but it slips from her paws and in a fit of shock and panic, she tries to save it from crashing to the ground.

"Oh no!" she cries out.

The Ivory Bowl hits the stone ground hard. The fretful Eevee quickly races to recover the fallen bowl, picks it up, and inspects it for damage. However, there doesn't seem to be a trace of any chipping, cracking, or any other kind of damage to the Ivory Bowl.

"No way!" the Eevee exclaims in both relief and surprise. "That... that fall would have broken any other pot or bowl of mine to bits! And yet this thing is still perfect in every way!"

At the same time, even the crash to the floor still hasn't caused any dirt to cling to the bowl.

"I swear, this must be a bowl straight from Heaven," Casha laughs, carefully handing it back to you. "What a beautiful and amazing thing you've got there!"
