When the morning arrives, you decide to grab a fresh muffin breakfast that Benni has prepared for you all and then decide to head out to investigate Seabourne Hospital. You’ve heard some not-so-nice things about it, and you’re wondering if it’s possible some of the Stalkers saw and opportunity here.
After walking a few miles through dry and dusty weather, you soon arrive at the hospital. And upon a first glance, it doesn’t seem like the most welcoming place. It’s a rather large and almost imposing gray and brown stone building and even the main building doesn’t feel trustworthy.
You shudder to think how many Pokémon had this rather bleak and depressing building as the last thing they saw of the outside world before they were admitted into this hospital only to never come out alive…
You decide with the hospital being as large as it is, you’re only going to have time to investigate the exterior grounds. The massive inside will need to wait for another time or will have to be handled by someone else.
As you make your way around the exterior, while the building itself is in good shape and isn’t at all something that direly needs renovation, it still doesn’t feel welcoming. Attempts must have been made some time ago to include fountains and flowers for decoration, but they’ve been neglected for quite some time and instead, the exterior atmosphere seems somber, quiet, and very neglected as if that’s how they treat their patients, too. The whole impression you get from it all seems to feel as though being admitted here means your chances of dying are much greater than recovering.
You then arrive at what used to be one of those motivational murals. You then identify that it was the mural that Altrea had mentioned to Lewisia, and you see the words “only the mantra of macabre words is understood here.”
But something seems horribly wrong…
You recalled that from Lewisia’s report, Altrea mentioned it depicted a family of Greedent and Skwovet, and that the Greedent’s eyes were “blotted out” and that the entire faces of the Skwovet were fully “blotched out.” While the lettering is the same…
…you look up to see the Pokémon depicted on the mural are different…
Instead, you see a father Blaziken and a mother Combusken with their eyes blackened out and a young Torchic with his face blotched out. It looked like what was there originally was a happy moment with this family enjoying a beautiful day outside, but now it’s corrupted. For a moment, you’re wondering if what Altrea found was another mural besides this one, but you’ve investigated the entire exterior and this seems to be the only one…
{The Fallen Mantra Mural: Unspoken Macabre Words} has been noted in the Team Records.
…
…No…
…You know you’re right. You know this is the same mural.
It was changed.
It was changed because…

For a brief moment, you swear you can hear the faint cry of a Torchic… and it even causes you to look around... only to find nothing...
…
You decide you really don’t want to be here anymore…
Not like this…
With a heavy heart, you go back to Benni’s farmstead and you try to flush out the thoughts and the sights of what you just saw here today.
Instead, it doesn’t work that well and they still linger hard in your memory…
