Once you manage to pass #tsumgate (literal), you enter the bedroom proper.
Here, the tsums (and there are indeed more of them) are far overshadowed by what truly dominates the space: a forest of tall crescent scythes which jut from the ground like so many moonsilver trees. Many of the blades are streaked with blood.
Amidst it all—tsums and scythes alike—are swaying lotuses, growing from little pools of water, along with clusters of purple aconite.
The feeling only intensifies, the more you touch them—and cutting them only makes them grow back more eagerly, like the heads of a hydra.
But you can put a name to this now: Aconite, Key of Rage. And there is something else, too, as the rage courses through you: Not your rage, but someone else's, forged into you. M̵҉̵̵ų̵̴͡r̴a̵̶̵̛m̸̶͟͝҉a̸͟҉s҉̸ą̶̷'s rage.
Not one place but many: You can see them creeping out from beneath most of the doorways here. In fact, the only ones that don't seem to be serving as fertile ground for them are the rooms belonging to Sashay, Ordine, Sabre, Kohime, Nero, and Harpy.
