However this falks, were going to have to go and see sinnik
Goldie looks like a special case in that refusal could result in damage to edens reputation if they end up having a hissy fit and, oh boy, can a goose hiss when it wants to.
So, stabitha, theres got to be a PR department here.
Bounce them a message saying that GG is here and if this id is not found, your instructions would mean you HAVE to bar entry, but you can see that would cause potential issues for the PR dept, so you thought it best to give them a chance to either have a human in authority directly countermand your instructions for this entrant or prepare for the PR meltdown.
Then sinnik.
Need to hustle on this one miss fancypants.

A close friend mysteriously missing? This looks like a job for Stab Unicorn, Class C Maverick Hunter! Today is getting better and better all the time! Not only do we get to meet Gilded Goose in person, but with any luck we'll be able to find and retire a Maverick too!

Okay, let's settle down. Don't count our geese before they're laid, or however it goes. Let's approach this methodically.

First, investigate the scene. From the last time we were here, I see that the area is mostly unchanged. That dark blue hexagon in the sky is a more uniform color now, the broken section of the fence has been repaired, some of the underground dots have shrunk... and most importantly, Chemical Formixer is gone, but one of her mechaniloids is here with a strange blue device. This looks deliberate.

Here's a question. What was Formixer's job while we were keeping Eden safe from Maverick infiltrators. If she was meant to be out here the whole time (repairing the fence, maybe) then it means she had to go somewhere and left her blue buddy behind. If she was working elsewhere, then she couldn't make it to our meeting and sent this critter in her place. Either way, it looks like she wanted to send us a message.

What's that blue thing next to the mechaniloid? Is it something we recognize? Maybe it's the message that our roommate wanted to send. But proceed with caution in case it's booby-trapped. With Mavericks about, you can never be too careful!

This looks reassuring at first glance but I'm still worried. Formixer suddenly leaves on an unspecified "special task" as soon as we lose sight of her, leaves a vague message but doesn't otherwise attempt to contact us, and leaves one of her drones behind?

If her special task started right after our orientation, that would be around 10:00 AM. That almost two hours ago at the minimum! What would take her that long? And what's her normal job, for comparison?

How did she even know about the orientation? This new job is just something we agreed to on the spot, and she wasn't there when Dr. Eve offered it. I guess the apple might have told her, but all she would know otherwise is that we're a botanist, not that we got a second job or how long our "shift" is.

Even stranger, why did she bring her yellow mechaniloid with her but leave her blue one here? If she was in a hurry, why take one but not both? If not, why leave one of them behind? Take a close look at that thing for clues. Can we communicate with it somehow?

For other questions, does Chemical Formixer have a preferred nickname? And is this area the outside or inside exit of Eden's entryway?

>>1119432
I think it's a "her". Honeypot ant workers are all female. Though with how humans design us, who knows? Maybe one of them really wanted a boy ant who was filled with colorful juices.

Stab Unicorn is still a little worried about Chemical Formixer
but there's no helping it now.

she collects the aphid, the message and teleports to the data processing center to find Sinnick

But the question remains what happened with Chemical Formixer?
switching focus to Chemical Formixer

Chemical Formixer is working hard.

She is a reploid that works at Eden. Unlike most of the other reploids at the amazing theme park, she has very rudimentary industrial parts built around her central Mixer System. She used to be self-conscious about her appearance, but her friend Stabitha thinks that her unique parts are cool so it doesn't bother her any more.

She is primarily employed for construction and maintenance. With the help of the Aphid mechaniloids and use of her mixer she has constructed most of the facilities in Eden. This morning, she is repairing the Barrier Field around Eden that preserves the atmosphere and keeps roving mavericks at bay. It was damaged overnight!

Her friend Stabitha was just here, Dr Eve requested that she bring some Entry Balloons to Customs. They have only been inside for a few minutes by the time Formixer has finished repairing the broken Barrier Stake. She doesn't know how they work, but the methodss of constructing and repairing them are already programmed into her! She dawdles just a little bit at the site, she knows that she shouldn't but she is hoping to be able to walk with Stabitha as she heads back to the Cloud Resort construction site.

The door opens, but instead of Stabitha it is Dr. Eve leaving the building along with Smart Apploid, who for some reason is in his combat form. Chemical Formixer likes Dr. Eve and Smart apploid because they let her stay in Eden, and also because smart apploid has a small, unusual body like she does.

Dr Eve continues walking, but Smart Apploid stops to talk to her.

"Oh, good! I'm glad that you're still here Chemical Formixer! I have a special assignment for you, and this saves me the trouble of looking for you."

"I'm always happy to be useful to Eden!"

Chemical Formixer is accustomed to working on various special assignments for Dr Eve. She is a diligent little ant and is always busy.

"We need you to go to the Volcano area. Some equipment showed signs of potential contamination, and in the interest of safety it was decided that it should be incinerated. Unfortunately, the incinerator is currently not working! We need you to go and repair the incinerator and dispose of the contaminated equipment."

Chemical Formixer salutes, and the Aphids nearby stand at attention. "Understood, I will report at once."

Smart Apploid's eyes turn happy, and he makes finger guns towards Chemical Formixer. "Great! I knew we could count on you!"

Chemical Formixer is happy to be praised, but has one more question.

"Did something happen with Stabitha? I haven't seen her come out."

Smart Apploid waves his hand dismissively. "Oh, nothing is wrong. Stabitha is also working on a special assignment for the good of Eden, and we just finished her orientation!"

Chemical Formixer is proud of her friend!

Chemical Formixer leaves an Aphid with a recording crystal for Stabitha, and heads to the Volcano Area.

She is always slightly nervous about the volcano area. Her internal systems are shielded and extremely resistant to heat, but her rudimentary industrial parts are intended for construction and do not withstand extreme temperatures well, necessitating repairs or replacement if she isn't careful. But today the fires in the Volcano area are all out!

Chemical approaches the restricted area at the center of the area, followed by one of the Aphids. Most of the attractions and decorations in the volcano area rely on either fire projection or flowing magma, neither of which are functioning at the moment. Fortunately there don't seem to be guests around, or they would be extremely disappointed! She approaches the door, where the Totem Gate Guards are swiveling their faces back and forth to keep watch. Their festive sunglasses make them look fit for a fun and casual party, but Chemical Formixer knows that they are working hard too!

There is a large pile of crates, containers, and debris near the door to the incenerator room. Chemical Formixer is fairly sure that this is the potentially contaminated equipment that Smart Apploid told her about. Some of the faces on the Totem Gate Guardian turn to face her as she approaches. "Whoa there friendo! This is a restricted area for Eden personnel only! For your own safety and entertainment, we recommend checking out one of the other hot attractions or Party Destinations here in Eden!"

The barrier was damaged overnight, and our boss is in his combat form? Oh no, this could mean trouble. I hope Stabitha wasn't hurt! She doesn't carry her weapons on the job! Nah, I'm sure she's fine. Even if something did happen, she had Smart Apploid there to keep her safe. We're both lucky to have such a smart and cool guy looking out for us.

>>1119653
Good idea to leave one of our Aphid buddies with our message. That will make sure Stabitha knows it was from us, and she won't worry about our safety. We know how she can get when she thinks there might be mavericks involved. It's honestly kind of concerning. We should try to keep her in a good mood if we can.

But enough about our best friend. Now it's all about Chemical Formixer, the Garden's Fixer! This is our special assignment and our time to shine!

(Do you like the name "Fixer"? I think it's a neat little nickname for talking with friends. Or what about "Chemica", from "chemical" and "formica"?)

Well, go on. Introduce yourself to the guards. You're a machine on a mission, here to fix the incinerator and dispose of the contaminated...

...Scrap, we forgot to ask questions! We don't know what the equipment looks like or how it was contaminated. What if we need to take special precautions to handle it? What if something important was left in that pile and we destroy it by accident!? I wish we were as smart as Stabitha. She'd never overlook something like that. I guess you need that level of attention to detail when you're a botanist.

Don't worry, we can salvage this. Just ask the guards what happened. They can tell us who left that big pile of stuff here, if they said anything about it to the guards, and anything else that happened when someone tried to use the incinerator. It's good to know in advance what kind of mechanical failure to watch out for. We don't want it to turn on while we're still inside it!

Chemical Formixer was worried about Stabitha for a moment, but she is not now. Chemical Formixer was probably built to operate in tunnels and other low/no-light environments, so she is equipped with seismic sensors that could detect that her friend was still moving around inside the office when Dr Eve and Smart Apploid left.

Chemical Formixer addresses the Totem Gate Guardians, “It's just me, Chemical Formixer. I'm here to fix the incinerator.”

“Sure thing, ms Formixer! We just have to give the warning!” The totem gate guardians reply. Chemical Formixer thinks that it is cute the way they switch which head is talking as the speak, but it can also be disorienting.

The mechanical gate begins to open, but then suddenly stops as the head at the bottom of the right-side pole swivels to face her.

“Hold on friendo, you said who you are but if you want into this party we need to see your ID-cardy!”

Oh no! Chemical Formixer does not have an ID Card, and never has. She has always been in Eden, so she never had to come through customs; and she doesn't leave the park grounds. She also does not have a manufacturer's mark! She knows that Dr Eve would never kick her out since she is a good reploid, but it makes her sad to be reminded that she is different from the others.

“I dont have an ID card,” Chemical Formixer begins sullenly, but the other Totem Gate Guardian heads interrupt her-

“Chemical Formixer doesn't need to show us ID, we all know who she is!” They speak in their disjointed unison. “And look at the little guy in her conga line! That's an Aphid, they only do what Chemical Formixer wants, so it has to be the real her!”

They turn to face Her, continuing “Don't worry about that MS Formixer, he's new.”

The head that asked for her ID says “I didn't know, I guess I'm still learning the ropes.”

Chemical Formixer smiles and waves at her new co-worker, she is glad that he is working hard!

“The last head had a malfunction last night and blew up, so I just got added today!”

“Oh no! Are the rest of you okay?” Asks Chemical Formixer.

“We're doing great, feeling hale and hearty and ready to party!”

“Was there anything suspicious?”

Nothing any of us noticed!”

Chemical Formixer is sad that one of the mechaniloids got hurt, but she is happy that they are feeling better!

“That's good to hear, I'm glad you're all working hard! I need to work hard too, so I need to get in to fix the incinerator.”

“No problem!” The Totem Gate Guardians reply in unison as the door ratchets open.

“Oh, and after the incinerator is fixed I'm supposed to destroy contaminated materials, do you know which things in this pile those are?”

“Nope!” The mechaniloids begin, “A bunch of different people have brought this trash by and it's been stacking up while the incinerator has been broken! Nobody tried to go inside, so we didn't have to try and stop them!”

It sounds like the Totem Gate Guardians don't know which items in the pile are contaminated or who would have brought them here. Chemical Formixer figures she'll just have to dispose of the entire pile.

“Well I'm going in to fix the incinerator now,” she says “Keep on doing a great job keeping Eden safe!” She winks at the new head as the guardians all say “Party on!” Chemical Formixer is happy that the new mechaniloid is working well with his peers!

Chemical Formixer walks inside the volcano facility, where the room is dominated by the massive incinerator. All of the magma pipes that power it are dark, and none of the exhaust stacks or flame blasters are even smoking. The feed belt has also been turned off.

She opens the maintenance hatch on the side of the machine and begins to examine it. There is substantial residual matter buildup on most of the machine's internals. In Chemical Formixer's opinion, this is most likely a result of heat imbalances causing sublimation abnormalities in the incinerator. There are also damaged components as a result of this buildup, whixh will need to be repaired or replaced; but there are no spare parts available at the moment.

Chemical Formixer isn't sure if the incinerator's mechanical failure triggered a safety fuse which shot off the magma power system or if fluctuations in the magma power system caused the damage that shut down the incinerator. Either way, the fire power will need to be restored before the incinerator will function. Chemical Formixer can not reactivate the magma power system.

Ideally a Fire Aniloid would be assigned to the volcano area. Aniloids are usually assigned to areas that use powerful or exotic elemental systems in their operation. Aniloids have a stronger affinity to elements than other reploids, so they are ideally suited to overseeing and maintaining systems that rely on those properties. This is why Stabitha maintains the botanical gardens, and the scary hydra monitors water purification at the beach. Eden does not currently have a fire Aniloid on staff to maintain the magma power system, but it does have a technician who should be able to turn it back on.

In order to fix the incinerator, Chemical Formixer needs to complete the following steps. She will need to decide what order to do them in, and how she wants to address them.

A: Remove the buildup of improperly sublimated matter inside the incinerator. The aphids can help her with this, but it will go faster if Chemical Formixer works together with them. There are always plenty of Aphids around to help in Eden, but they generally stay out of sight unless Formixer calls them.

B: Repair or Fabricate new parts. Chemical Formixer has the knowledge and industrial machining parts required to perform either task. Fabricating and installing new parts from proper materials would yield the best and longest-lasting results; but she can also repair the existing parts or wholly fabricate new parts with a durable and heat-resistent resin that will work fine.

C: The Magma Power System will need to be restarted. A chemical Formixer will need to call the technician about this, but the technician is usually surly and does not like having their time wasted.

Chemical Formixer is inspired by the hard-working mechaniloids at the security door, and is ready to get to work!

Plus, once your part is done you can help the aphids finish their part.

No. 1120081 ID: 70f58a

>>1120076
A: send in the aphids.
B: while the aphids are working, make new replacement parts for anything you can't easily repair. Do the best you can for the longest-lasting repairs with what you have available without using too much resin.
If you finish B before the aphids are done, go and help them finish A.

Then once everything's installed and ready, C. Optimally, you'd have someone double-check your work.

B. First, fabricate the new parts. This will likely be the task you are most unable to step away from while completing it, so if there is a horrible monster lurking in the dark you want to complete this step before you need to do your tasks while avoiding it.

Then A, and then C, since we don't want to be working in the heat for long.

Good to know it was just the two of them with her. If Stabitha was alone with Smart Apploid then she was perfectly safe. So then why was he in his combat form...? Well, he must have had a good reason. Maybe he was just letting her admire him? That's a pretty good reason. Whatever it was, it's not our job to think about it. We're the Fixer, not a Maverick Hunter.

We should try to get an ID card one of these days if we can. Stabitha must be concerned about it and she's such a good friend that we don't want to make her worry. She'd probably even want to help with it. She's always been smarter than us when it comes to that sort of thing.

OOC: the gate totems are fun. It would be neat if their speech pattern of swapping heads mid-sentence was emphasized by a quirk of the narrative, like using "quotation marks" "to separate" "a sentence" "into fragments" "when they switch". Could be annoying, though. Up to you.

>>1120076
Now let's get fixing, Fixer!

Before we start, make a mental note about the heat imbalances and magma fluctuations that could have caused the malfunction. We'll want to tell someone about that so we can look into it later.

A: Send the aphids to scrub off the residual matter. No need to rush this when we'll still have other tasks to complete when we're done. Better to work on both tasks at the same time.

B: Repair the parts with resin. This is Eden's grand opening and we want it to look its best for customers! We'll want proper replacements in the long term, but right now, a quick fix is what we need. Unless it will take longer than it takes for the aphids to do their scrubbing.

C: Call the technician after it's ready to go. No reason to call them before we're ready to fire the thing up. But also, ask how things went on their end, so we know if it was the magma that broke the incinerator or the broken incinerator that triggered the magma system's safety fuse.

Also, set a couple of aphids to record the process so we'll know if anything weird happens around us, stay aware of that trash pile with our seismic sense in case there's anything moving in it, and call someone to ask about the contaminated parts before we burn all the trash. Maybe we're just worried because this is Eden's grand opening, but it feels extra important to not let anything go wrong today.

Chemical Formixer gets to work!

She decides that she will multitask with the aphids in order to save time. He uses the resin she has mixed to block out a big rectangle which she fills with a pool of resin that she smoothes out as it quickly solidifies, making a large slab from which she can cut and fabricate temporary replacement parts. As she does, she signals nearby Aphids for assistance.

The aphids are not intended to scrub the gunk from the machinery, they dont have the manipulators which would be required for that. The aphids extract, distill, refine, and store chemical reagents for use in Chemical Formixer's hypermixer.

By combining a solvent reagent with a [/i]target[/b] reagent, chemical formixer can make a chemical solvent that will specifically dissolve the buildup. Chemical Formixer eats a small chunk of the gunk, which tastes very bad but allows her to perform the required analysis! The aphids provide her with the reagents required to produce the solvent mixture.

Chemical Formixer dispenses the solvent into a squadron of Aphids, which carry it into the incinerator to deploy onto the areas where carbonized matter was built up. As they do, chemical formixer busies herself cutting the replacement parts from the cured resin sheet. The construction resin is extremely resilient, but Formixer is able to tightly focus the plasma output from her buster in order to slowly cut the required forms and then slowly machine them to appropriate tolerances. It's time consuming work, but Chemical Formixer is a hard worker!

She finishes the part fabrication before the aphids are finished with cleaning the machine. The aphids work hard, but they are small and simple. By applying the solvent herself, Formixer could complete the task faster. However, She chooses to leave the task to the aphids and attempts to contact the technician. She believes that the little guys can do the job!

Chemical Formixer does not have a personal communicator installed. Smart Apploid has told her that it is because the system by which she commands the Aphids creates too much interference, and he's very smart so Formixer trusts him. She goes to one of the park’s support posts and attempts to call the technician, but there is no answer.

On her way back, Formixer's attention is drawn to the large pile of debris set for incineration. She knows that some portion is contaminated somehow, but Smart Apploid didnt tell her that she would need any additional safety equipment to dispose of it so she assumes that whatever contaminant is there is not something that will harm her. She still decides it would be a good idea to examine it more closely.

She ultimately divides the disposal pile into 3 sections. One section is ordinary park waste, empty containers and broken or expended components of machinery that would be generated over the course of normal park operation. Another is sealed containers with Eden markings, Formixer will not be able to know what is inside the containers without opening them. From quick scans of their external surfaces, Formixer can determine that they were transported from the service tunnels that run beneath the surface of the park.

The third pile is the most unusual, mixed among the others she finds a number of parcels emblazoned with the Avis Manufacturing trademark. They look to be designed for easy hand transportation, and look uncharacteristically fancy. Chemical Formixer is not aware of any partnership between Eden and Avis Manufacturing, but it would make sense to have an Avis Aniloid for the Cloud Resort that she is currenrly building.

She turns back to the totem gate guardians to ask about the containers.

“Nope”
“Nuh Uh”
“They were there when I started watching.”
“No Idea”
“They weren't there when i stopped watching"

Chemical formixer interjects as the heads babble amongst themselves, “who was watching when these were brought in?”

“Well I was watching”
“First, and I”
“Watched after that, but if”
“They were already there when i was watching,”
“But not yet when I was watching,”
“Then it must have been”
“The guy that malfunctioned”
“He must have been watching when”
“Somebody brought that stuff here, so”
“Sorry, but we don't know anything about it.”

That's very unfortunate, Chemical Formixer was hoping she could find out who to ask about these weird containers.

“Oh well,” she says, “thank you for telling me what you could! Keep up the good work!”

Chemical Formixer is glad that the mechaniloids are still working hard!

She goes back into the incinerator room, where the aphids are finishing up with applying the solvent. Chemical Formixer thanks them for their hard work, and sends them on their way!

Chemical Formixer enjoys working together with the aphids!

She reloads on Harden and enclose reagents to ready her construction resin, and begins replacing the damaged parts in the incinerator. Those parts that she can't replace easily are instead patched and repaired with resin to the best of her ability. After she is finished replacing the parts, she examines her work. The incinerator should work for at least 2 months before any of the resin parts begin to fail, but she would prefer to have more permanent replacement parts installed before that point. All that's left is to turn the magma back on and dispose of the contaminated material!

Formixer goes back to the support post and attempts to call the fire technician again. The connection fails just like before, but since Formixer no longer has any tasks to complete at this location she immediately attempts to call again.

After several sections, Mant-L answers the call!

“WHY do you keep bothering me, I'm busy!”

“Hello Mant-L,” Chemical Formixer replies, “I have completed repairs on the incinerator, but i need the magma power system reactivated in order to -”

“So turn it on, then!” The reploid on the screen interjects, scowling, “you're the Aniloid, aren't you?”

“I do not have the proper fire circuitry required to properly-”

“Oh shove it!” Mant-L storms off away from the viewport, but walks back in a moment later. “Just leave me alone. I'm on break right now, I'll reactivate the magma system when I can get around to it.”

Formixer pauses, “I thought you were busy-”

“YEAH! I'M BUSY BEING ON BREAK!” the hot-headed reploid shouts before the connection abruptly cuts off.

Chemical Formixer feels uncomfortable after talking to Mant-L!

Formixer is glad that Mant-L will turn the magma power system back on, but she isn't sure how long it will take. She has too much to do to wait around all day, but she can't just leave potentially contaminated material lying around. She also needs to get back to the Construction Site to continue work on the Cloud Resort, especially if it might be part of a partnership with Avis Manufacturing. Before she can do that, she needs to figure out what to do with the trash pile. Even beyond potential contamination, it makes the park look bad!

She will need to either move the pile somewhere else temporarily, or find an alternate means to dispose of the pile. She returns to the security gate for the incinerator room while considering her options. By the time she arrives, the magma power system is still disabled.

The fact that the head "malfunctioned" at the same time as the mysterious material was placed here is very suspicious. Someone could have destroyed the head on purpose because they wanted to hide their identity.
Since you have time waiting for the incinerator to start back up, why don't you open up some of the containers to see what's inside? It's presumably all meant to be incinerated anyway so nobody should care what you do with it, right?

I think it's quite likely someone knew the incinerator was broken and placed this stuff here as "garbage" with the intent of coming back later to collect it and destroy another head... or it's meant to do something horrible when put into the incinerator. We need to make sure it's all safe. You should take precautions when opening the weird containers too. If they explode when opened or something you don't want to get hurt!

Oh for - who delivered Goldie's luggage to the incinerator?
Do not dispose of the non-Eden material yourself, leave it to the higher-ups. Or move it to the lost and found, to uh... disguise it as unclaimed items?
Can you move the common trash into the incinerator, or at least the service tunnels? You could use your chemical expertise to amalgamate it into a more easily transported lump.
The Eden crates are a pickle. Take a peek inside to get a feel for what it is - if it's inert, maybe you can just disguise it as part of the level geometry? I mean, park decor?

So the one that saw what happened conveniently malfunctioned. Could it be intentional sabotage?

>>1120377
Good catch on the luggage. It could be an attempt by those anti-tech guys to sabotage Eden's relationship with Avis by torching her luggage and causing an incident.

Not that Formixer has a way to know that in-character.

The sealed Eden containers are probably contaminated lab materials that need to be destroyed, but keep the Avis packages to deliver them to the lost and found.

Place the sealed containers inside the incinerator so they're out of access to anyone coming across them by mistake, and they are destroyed as requested once the power comes back on. After that it's out of your hands.

Well, if the Avis containers aren't supposed to be here, how do we know the Eden containers are supposed to be here?

I say ONLY burn the obvious trash. Contact someone who can verify if the other stuff should be burned or not.

Mant L is being a word that humans would use catagorised under the alphanumeric section B.
Capital B.

But thats notnimportant.
Cheer up formixer.
Youre working hard and have done everything you have been instructed to and some extra too.
Thats the kind of work a reploid is meant for and love to do.
That makes you a good reploid.
If mant L wants to miss out on the chance to beca good reploid, cooperate with you and just be a big grump, thats their loss.

Hmm.
Formixer may not know why all these things are but she should at least scan the surfaces of containers for hazardous symbols she recognizes.

If there are any markings she doesnt recognise then maybe record or remember them so she can ask someone with a different dataset or expertise.
Maybe stabitha would be able to identify them later.
The important thing is to put aside all objects with unidentified markings until identified later for safe disposal.

these nonstandard containers need conformation before being disposed of. When in doubt, get it checked out.

In order to get the fullest information on the situation, open all the containers for inspection.

As for the machinery, what is needed to start them up? Perhaps a volatile chemical could do the trick.

That fancy stuff looks familiar, like we should know the silhouette... isn't that Gilded Goose? That famous reploid our roommate has a crush on? Her items aren't supposed to be incinerated! If she's here, then destroying her luggage will make her upset, and that would make Stabitha upset! We can't let down our awesome roommate like that!

And something destroyed the mechaniloid on duty when this trash was delivered. That's even more suspicious.

>>1120371
Something's not right about this. We may just be a humble worker robot, but we're a reploid, so let's use our Light-given artificial intelligence to figure this out!

Normal trash can just burn.
Gilda's luggage should be delivered to wherever Gilda is. If she's a guest, she must be living somewhere, like... a hotel? Can we call and ask? Say we've found some lost items that we think are hers.
Sealed containers are the most suspicious. Store them behind the gate to keep them out of sight, but not in the actual incinerator. Examine them carefully before we decide what to do with them. Are there any markings on them that could tell us where they're from or what's in them? Cracking one open might go badly if they're safe to touch because they're sealed. But if there's a crate that isn't sealed properly, looking inside won't make things worse.

Also, can we get any info on what happened to the missing totem guard? I'm guessing his "malfunction" happened while he was on duty, but can we search for his remains? Examining them could help us learn what his malfunction was. And were any of the other guards damaged by it?

We could also look around the service tunnels where those crates came from.
