At the Manor, Boscha and Luz put Amity on the couch. She fell asleep pretty quickly.

"Seems like that just tired her out." Luz said.

"Yeah." Boscha said, "Luz, we could've just died there."

"Yeah, I know. How was Odalia able to stop our armors like that?" Luz asked.

"I think it was this remote. The one Amity took from her." Boscha said as she pulled the remote from her pocket, having took it from Amity earlier.

"You're good with this kind of stuff, Boscha, think you can look through it?" Luz asked.

"I can try, it might take a few days." Boscha said, "Thankfully for you, I have to wait a couple weeks for more materials to arrive."

"Materials?"

"These weapons and armor are made from some rare stuff. It can only be found on the other side of the Isles, in the Titan's Horns. I need that in order to make the next weapon."

"Oh! A new weapon. Who's it for this time?" Luz asked with excitement.

"That's up to you." Boscha said, handing the journal to Luz.

Luz saw a green war hammer.

"Oooh!" Luz said at the sight of the hammer, tying to think about who would be perfect to wield it, "Who gets to wield that?"

"That's up to you." Boscha said.

"I don't know." Luz said, "Someone powerful needs to hold it."

"Well, you got some time before I work on it."

Luz nodded to Boscha as she turned the page and saw it was a new but blank with the title "Control Remote, Dangerous" at the top.

"You made a page for the remote?" Luz asked her.

"Why not? I'm gonna study this thing so I can make some adjustments to our armor to make them immune to it or anything similar." Boscha said to Luz.

"Now, I'm going to get to work, you try and keep Amity calm." Boscha said, motioning to the purple haired girl on the couch, "She's might have nightmares over this."

"Don't worry, I'm not leaving her side." Luz said as she pulled out a scroll, a demon realm phone that Boscha gave her. "I'll have to call Eda and tell her I'm going to be sleeping over again. She and King are probably worried sick."

Boscha went to her room and placed the remote on her workbench.

"Alright, time to see what's in this." Boscha said, cracking her fingers.

Grabbing the proper tools, Boscha began taking the remote apart piece by piece while taking notes and drawing of all the parts involved.

"This is the single most advanced thing I've ever seen." Boscha said, looking at the parts and notes in front of her, "If I could find a way to add this ability to the armor, that could give us an advantage."

'Though, I still wonder who made it? Could it have been Amity's dad, Alador?' Boscha thought as she added "Inventor: ?" To her notes. 'He is the inventor behind all those weapons and Abomitrons for Blight Security.'

"This is going to be something I need to look into, but that's a problem for later." Boscha said pulling out tweezers, "Now to grab this core carefully."

The core of the remote appeared to be a gem of sorts, giving a slight glow as its amethyst shined in the light of the room. Boscha drew the gem in her journal, surrounded by question marks.

"I've never seen something like this."

Carefully grabbing the gem and pulling it from the remote, Boscha grabbed a magnifying glass to have a closer look at it for any hidden properties.

"This looks like there's trace amounts of ankle magic." Boscha said "How did she even get this? The tribe of the ankle refuse to allow anyone or anything in or out of the ankle. Even the Emperor won't mess with them."

So how did Blight Security or Alador get his hands on it? The night market?

"The Owl Lady has been spotted there a few times, I'll ask her to look for one next time she goes there."

Putting the amethyst gem aside gently, Boscha went back to studying the rest of the control remote and all of its parts.

"I truly have a hard time believing Odalia made this." Boscha said, "This is far more impressive than something she could make."

So that meant it could only be something purchased in the Night Market.

'If she had something like this in her clutches, what else could she have?' Boscha thought.

Boscha wrote "Contact Owl Lady about Night Market" in her journal before closing it.
