>>13486826http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLkRsw4rcdUThings take a turn for the bizarre once you move the cardboard box down into the Salt Fabrication Facility, the normal scene suddenly shifts from generic office building to South Korean animation studio.
The entire department is filled with baby Pokemon taken hostage and put into slave labor, god only knows what they've done to their parents.
While incognito, you and Skrelp shuffle amongst the crowds of oblivious children and the ignorant guards overlooking them, making sure every section of the factory is taken into account.
The crystals needed to make the salt are harvested on a constant note from a hidden mountain mine shaft connected to the factory, so no authority figure can have the ungodly pleasure of finding out what's really going on behind the deranged castle walls atop of the snowy hill.
The baby miners all have black soot covering their faces, terrible coughs, and pick axes that are big they often weigh down on their backs like fucking boulders. Azurills have it the worst though.
They have to drag something twice their own size with just their mouth.
The harvested crystals are deployed into a machine which transports them onto a conveyor belt as part of an assembly line, the baby Pokemon working on that section toil endlessly hacking pick axes onto said crystals, mashing into tiny bits and pieces.
Whatever remains of the crystals after this process gets fed into a gut-wrenching grinder, which crushes them up even further. Following that, they get deposited into a mixer where extra ingredients are added. This ranges from tame stuff like baking soda and table salt to something quite mysterious known only as "Megalo-sesquicarbonate".
After being properly mixed, it goes back into the grinder for a final time before the result is deposited into a bowl, on another conveyor belt, heading to the Packaging Dept for proper, well, packaging.
The scene is quite grizzly, to be Captain Obvious.
