Mm. . .but being broken means you can be put back together, right? Or are we talking permanent damage here?
Now this is all hypothetical, since it's entirely possible Scowl was blowing smoke. For all we know, he and Flowers are just plotting to dump a bunch of uglyfish and terepedes in your realm. Maybe even set them on fire.
But anyway, let's say someone had to piece--you have to think of many factors. How would the blanks even know what it was? Who could tell them what it's for, or how to use it? Where could they find it, if Surgeon had it? It's a fairly unlikely scenario unless you can answer any of these questions.
