As is typical of most TriadCity commands, Beseech searches for <thing> in a specific order, starting with the room you're in, then your worn or wielded equipment, then your inventory. So, if there's a box in the room, and a box in your inventory, the command "beseech box" will refer to the one in the room, not your inventory. You'd need to use "beseech 2.box" for the latter.

Beseech can be modified with an arbitrary word of your choice. Usually you'll use an intensifying adverb as shown in the examples above. Note that Beseech does not use this modifier as a search specifier when looking for <thing>. Instead Beseech displays this modifier via the Game channel. Thus you can "beseech imploringly", "beseech urgently", and so on. You can also "beseech 18373649" or "beseech toothpaste-like", so, please don't. It's up to you to get the syntax right.
