>>5685433Lockers, meaning possible clues.
You go to the first one already going for the key in your pocket.
There was no need for it. The first locker opens up at the handle.
Inside, you find:
What looks like some kind of worker's overalls with pockets and straps.
An industrial size flashlight.
You click the flashlight. It has two settings, narrow and wide, and it seems to work well enough. There's a large battery pack fastened on the bottom.
You open the next one, and the next one, and the next one... The remaining lockers are empty save for a single coat hanger in each of them.
You go back to the table and go to inspect the roses. As you go for the vase, you see a note bound with string in a very careful script.
It says:
Good morning?
Roses. They look pleasing don't they?
Find the elevator. That's the way to continue.
And bring plenty of water (not the one for the roses).
Good luck.
You continue inspecting the vase, carefully taking out the roses. There's nothing at the bottom, and nothing else among the petals and thorns.
You notice that about a finger of water has evaporated, leaving a chalky deposit.
You put the roses back down, and wonder what to do next. You're still thirsty.
