You pull open the iron gate of the elevator and step in, the gate shutting neatly behind you. The lift is dark and there is a gentle electric hum from above. You kick the side of the lift to coax it to move, which does nothing except jar a ceiling tile loose. It lands at your feet in a cloud of dust. You sigh and wait for your eyes to adjust to the darkness as you cough through the dusty haze.

As they do, you start to see the broken tile come into focus and, sticking out from the rubble, the corner of something wooden. You brush away the dust and discover a box, largely unharmed from the fall save for a large nick on the top. The elevator lurches alarmingly, you should probably make a decision.
