Theme Music is now mandatory

The dank passageway turns quickly from stone to steel, and the built-in glowing lanterns have turned to primitive steampunk light bulbs. The corridor branches out, and the strangest sight thus far reveals itself: factories and machinery as far as the eye can see. Buckets of iron pipes and stone tools can be seen near the entrance, and light bulbs are present throughout the space that can be seen, though none are lit up... just as well, since this place must be ancient.

A small, fenced courtyard occupies the area around this entrance, and beyond the massive gate arch, it's factories for hundreds of yards.

Whoa! I've seen some glowy stuff in my expeditions in caves, but nothing like this. Any idea what goes on the pedestal? Dusty is hesitant to move forth, as it's possible that this room is locked for a reason. He takes his time approaching the pedestal.

"No...but I might have an idea," replies Inei, grabs an empty Pokeball and places it into the indenture of the pedestal.

Inei places the ball on the pedestal... but the indent is much too big for the ball.

He does notice, however, four candles on each corner of the pedestal.

The Conk considers the inquiry... at least he can understand English well. He goes to a drawer, and pulls out a chart of something. It's quite yellowed, as if created ages ago... and it looks like a drawing of a bulb with a circle in the center.

Jones sighs, then chuckles. "Let me guess, the only source for the apricorns to make these is in the greenhouse with the giant bulb, isn't it? Do you know where in general would be a good place to start looking?" He also studies the drawing intently.

The drawing does look like the bulb of the Bulbasaur line... Jones is unsure if it's the big one or just any one. Maybe there's some wild Bulbasaur in the Greenhouse somewhere.

The Conk isn't sure; he lacks knowledge of the places outside the Factories, after all.

Jones lets out a small laugh, before he turns to Reya. "Well, now I believe we're going to be headed to the Greenhouse after all. Of course, if this is a unique apricorn variant that hasn't been seen before, then it would be something that Mythrel would probably be quite interested in."

"Here's hoping we manage to find more than one then. Wait what was that about a giant bulb?" She asks out of curiosity rather than fear.

"Got a lighter, by chance?" Dusty asks.

"According to Merchant and some of the others, there's a giant bulb, looks like a Bulbasaur Bulb, in the Greenhouse. Good a place as any to try and find what we're looking for. Though they said it spews out a bunch of spores. I don't suppose you've got a gas mask, or something else you can use to keep the spores out of your lungs? I can use my dive suit since its sealed, but it'll be clunky going." He turns back and nods at the Conkeldurr. "Thanks again for your help." With that he'll lead the way to the Greenhouse now.

Reya frowns but quickly perks up again. "I don't have anything like that so I guess should hang out of reach. We could prep a bit more. I could train a couple of your Pokemon so they'd have a better chance of resisting the spores but diving in is fine too." She says as they make thier way towards the top of the pyramid.
