Trashcan 1

• *rummages through the trash can, pulling out a banana peel with a few days' worth of mold on it* Ugh, wait, what's this? A leather notebook...
• Letter from Dr Henry, Former Nimrod Researcher
• I used to work for Nimrod, but I quit due to their priorities. They care more about profit and power than the well-being of tuxemon and their handlers.
• I've seen firsthand the devastating effects of Nimrod's tuxemon breeding programs.
• They're pushing these creatures to their limits, and it's only a matter of time before something goes terribly wrong.

Trashcan 2

• *digs deeper into the trash can, pushing aside banana peels and broken pens* Gross. Okay, what's this? Another notebook...
• Field Notes of Dr Sophia, Conservation Biologist
• My team and I have been monitoring tuxemon populations in the wild, and our data suggests that their numbers are declining at an alarming rate.
• This is likely due to habitat destruction and fragmentation, as well as the increasing demand for tuxemon for military and commercial purposes.
• We've observed that tuxemon are playing a crucial role in maintaining ecosystem balance in certain regions.
• Their loss could have far-reaching consequences for the environment and human societies that depend on these ecosystems."

Trashcan 5

• *pulls out a moldy pizza box and a stack of old newspapers* This trash can is a treasure trove of grossness. Oh, a journal...
• Journal of Dr John, Historian
• My research on the ancient empire's use of tuxemon has led me to question the official narrative.
• It appears that the empire's relationship with tuxemon was more complex and nuanced than previously thought... with evidence of both reverence and exploitation.
• I've discovered a series of ancient texts that suggest the empire's use of tuxemon was not solely for military purposes... but also for spiritual and ceremonial reasons.
• These texts, written in a long-forgotten language, offer a glimpse into a world where tuxemon were revered as sacred beings.
• As I delve deeper, I'm uncovering a rich tapestry of stories and legends... revealing the empire's profound connection to the tuxemon.
• Fascinating and unsettling, it raises more questions than answers about the empire's rulers."

Trashcan 4

• *reaches to the bottom of the trash can, pulling out a soggy notebook* Ugh, I hope this one isn't ruined. Ah, it's still legible...
• Notebook of Dr Maria, Tuxemon Biologist
• Observations of tuxemon behavior in the wild suggest that they are highly social creatures... with complex communication patterns and a strong sense of hierarchy.
• This challenges the common assumption that tuxemon are simply tools for human use.
• Preliminary data suggests that tuxemon are capable of experiencing stress and anxiety when subjected to intense training regimens.
• Further research is needed to understand the long-term effects of this stress on tuxemon well-being.

Maniac

• How is your adventure so far? ... Wow, so talkative! You are really coming out of your shell.

Shaft HQ: Mining Division

Sign

• Journey to the Center of the Earth!

Miner

• It is important to protect indigenous people, land... but we cannot criminalize the miners
• who are looking for a living to survive. What matters is that the miners are protected!

Miner

• Some islands in the archipelago are completely taken over by mining. It is not possible to differentiate
• between an indigenous community and a mining area. There is not even water to drink. Shaft is against!

Miner

• To streamline the mining sector, someone started to give certificates to those qualified to mine.
• The entity? Omnichannel! And Shaft is the scapegoat.

Scientist

• Shaft leader is a thinker and doer. She is not a talker. She has met twice with the miners. It shows quality.
• It shows his plans for Fondent. Our leader has been consistent when it comes to climate change.

Scientist

• In Fondent alone there are about a dozen locations where illegal or artisan mining is going on but Shaft is viewed as evil.

Shaft HQ: Public Relations Division

Achievement

• Shaft is proud to join the top businesses in this race towards a net-zero economy because we believe that climate change is not only one of the greatest risks facing Fondent, but also one of the greatest opportunities for sustainable innovation.

Papers

• This leaflet from the Shaft aims to gain the trust of the Fondent's people.

PC

• Shaft promotional video on TuxTube.

Receptionist

• Shaft is is one of the largest mining companies in the region, especially those that contribute to the communities.

Maniac

• I don't trust Shaft. My geologist friend joined a team to explore the river basin to determine the impact of deforestation and mining on the river and water quality.
• This will mark the first ever evaluation of carbon and mercury production in mining ponds, and their subsequent impact on water flowpaths, ever conducted in Fondent.

Florist

• Now we don't have to worry about different journalists contradicting each other.

Miner

• You won't believe what they're digging up in Route 3. I've never seen an egg that big. Oops, I've said too much.

Battle Pit

Two tuxemon are battling, with their trainers also in the ring.

Pirate

• Arr, one of the services we offer here is the battle pit. Would you like me to match you with a trainer who lives in the area, or someone over the Internet? (Area/Internet/No thanks)

(If you choose "area", you fight a random NPC trainer. If you choose "internet", you fight a human over the Internet)
