Description

The Engaged Lock Box of the Night Wyrm is a small box made of dark wood and engraved with spiderweb patterns; through its slats, a pink orchid is visible. The box crackles with dark energy. Three metallic claws rise out of the wood, each holding a marble-sized purple jewel representing a magical seal. The active seals glow; broken seals look "cracked and burned-out, like spent flashbulbs."[1]

Story

Katia Grim received the Lock Box in a Celestial Loot Box at the beginning of the Sixth Floor, as a reward for using the Gate of the Feral Gods to flood Larracos. She attempted to tell Carl about it several times, but he was a little preoccupied murdering everyone.[1]
