You head back to Salvage Keep, keen to see what lies in the last area that you haven't yet searched. Once you arrive, you are let in by Holly once again and head straight up to the top floor.
You begin scouring the rooms up the top of the Keep, notably Shilamora's room. There are a few off-shoot rooms here and there, but mostly the entire floor is dedicated to the town mayor as her own space. You can see immediately when you enter that she has many paintings of herself and her family, and some with friends. She has the occasional framed letter or declaration, and upon reading them, you find that they are mostly words of praise from neighbouring towns or villages. Her furniture is rather high-end and comfortable, which is quite the contrast to the other belongings that the pokémon in town possess.
One thing you find that sticks out to you is a gift-wrapped box on her desk. Curious, you make your way over and inspect it, realising that it seems to have some kind of specific lock. You quickly realise that this is an elemental lock, and it doesn't seem to specify which type is needed. You lean over and blow some fire into it, which is immediately absorbed by the lock. It pops and smokes, then drops off the box.
{Gift-Wrapped Box: +Any type+}
You slowly open the box, hoping that whatever lies inside is not something that Shilamora needs or values. As the lid comes off, your stomach drops as you see gore and guts inside the box sprinkled with glitter. Your immediate response is to gag, but you resist, instead noticing a something dark and solid beneath the entrails. The sight is burnt into your mind, and the only thing you can do is wonder where they came from and why they are in a box. The thought turns in your mind, making you more fearful by the second.
Brass the Braixen sustains 2 points of Sanity damage.
You try to push past the mental assault as you attempt to forget what you saw, and use your tail stick to slosh aside the guts to see what lies beneath it. You feel in some way that it is important, so you put the lid back on and leave with the box. Once you get back to the clubhouse, you use the tools at your disposal to clear the guts and remove the thing at the bottom: some kind of rectangular object. It takes you a while to realise what it is, but eventually identify it as a bomb. At first you nearly jump and throw it, but you maintain your calm and place it well away from where you or your fellow Emissaries typically spend time. Hopefully, this thing is inactive...
