Ha! Like anything could possibly be more secure than this box! It's the perfect prison!
[New subgoal added! Find permanent solution!]

>Hope, what things can we do aside from track horrors?
I think you can instill the power of a captured horror on a box-bearer. That's all the engineer-priests told me.
[Alert! Evidence of blocked, damaged, and undocumented features detected! Good luck with that.]

>simple, after the box is closed it is locked in a safe and thrown into the marianas trench.
[Solution potentially nonviable. Pressure may cause box to rupture!]
>and jake, real talk, where the hell did you get the box?
I, uh, found it. For sale. At Wilmington manor. They were having, uh, a yardsale. It was really cheap.
Sounds like it was a steal.
Yeah, Millie. A steal.
Sounds legit. Jake.
Jack.
Right, Jake.

>Jack. You sure were squawking urgently about opening us. Why did you want to open the box so bad?
I sto-
uh, bought it from a count. Usually they have something really profitable in them. If this whole scheme works out, it still might be...
>Millie. How antique do you estimate the lock to be?
Real, real old. Like so old that nobody knows who made it. Stuff like this turns up all the time, and you can pick it out ‘cause it's too advanced to copy. Not to say we didn’t figure out just a little! Somebody figured out how to power up the clockwork relays and BAM, we got skytrams and volt-toasters. Have you ever eaten toast toasted with pure lightning magic?! It's delicious!
The Box is ours. Fey-built, it's the best in the world!
You just solved a thousand-year mystery. We should throw a party! Ooo, Ooo, I'll get the streamer cannon!
Not until we catch the horrors! And not without lots of liquor.
I think I'm starting to like you.
>Hope. Bahahaha a liar and a perv too. I like you.
A liar and a...
I swear I'd rip apart if I didn't need you to catch the horrors which are no-doubt plaguing the good people of this world.
>>520168
>Law enforcement
Don't get caught.
>What's it like?
Hosts don't know they're possessed, and they're conscious the whole time. Horrors, being the TWISTED MONSTROSITIES they are, mess with their memories so they don't remember what they're doing or remember it wrong. Or make stuff happen around them, stuff they might think is "just a coincidence". Evil stuff.
"Bozos, any questions? We doing this?"
Do we really have to s-strip them?
"...We do, Millie. We have to. Are you still in?"
"...Yeah."
...Do we get to keep the stuff?
"Yes, Jake, we get to keep the stuff."
>[detect nearby horrors]
>[find nearby spirit]
[Two Spirits detected!
- Annoyance
- Unbinding
Locations pinpointed! Activating Box-O-Vision!]
