I'll search (8) Overland Metalworks Exterior

You head over to the northeastern side of town and approach the large, dark gray building that has been operating for the last sixty years. The building itself seems a bit worn and has been in operation seemingly non-stop, but it still gets the job done like an old soldier that wants to keep fighting. The walls sometimes have some wear and tear here and the grid-shaped industrial windows definitely haven't been worked on in at least over a decade, but they still perform their function.

You make your way around the perimeter, trying to see if anything stands out as unusual. Despite signs of age and recent updates, nothing seems to strike you as significantly unusual at first. There are a few signs of neglect, but nothing that indicates something that could potentially be related to the Stalkers or any other nefarious thing going on.

When you get to the back of the building, this area seems particularly quiet and for a minute, you begin to believe your search might just turn up nothing until you see something on the concrete wall. It seems someone else has been here and has taken advantage of this quiet place's lack of scrutiny. It seems they've been keeping notes on the walls, but have also felt compelled to warn anyone that might be looking around here.



Message =Concrete Wall Message= has been noted in the Team Records.

It's hard to tell what kind of Pokémon wrote this or if they're even still alive.

You finish off your search around the perimeter of the building, but you don't find anything else that stands out as being alarmingly unusual.

Now that the night has arrived, it's time to make some mischief!

How about we interview #29 Franny the Mismagius instead?

Fiiiiine.

[Morzone]

Hm well, a coffin at the auto-dealers is kind of weird, but I'll come back to it later. For now I think I'll go search through 10a Senger Manufacturing floors 1-3. Maybe I'll find some old supplies that could be useful.

[LKWayvern]

I'd like to interview Yandil the Smeargle, without confronting him about the words we found.

Greetings, puny mortal. Has anything 'significant' occurred in your brief, insignificant life thus far?

[Neo Emolga]

Now that the night has arrived, it's time to make some mischief!

How about we interview #29 Franny the Mismagius instead?

Fiiiiine.

Interview Rapport: POSITIVE

You find that Franny works both the day and the night shift as the medical center, where she functions mainly as a nurse for both caretaking and for prepping equipment for surgical procedures. Despite the fact she works quite hard on most days, she seems to be lively and in good spirits. When you meet with her during a moment she has a bit of time to take a breather, she looks upon you fondly.

"Hi there!" Franny greets you. "You caught me at a good time! What can I help you with?"

You explain how you're trying to find more information regarding the Stalkers that are around Southwarren. She nods, looking like the police have already been here before to ask her questions. Despite it being a grim topic, she explains what she knows.

"Yeah, tell me about it," Franny sighs. "I've had to take on the role of being the center's pediatrician because Dudgel, the guy we originally had looking after the sick kids, was killed by one of them. Dudgel was such a sweet guy. Most innocent Wartortle I've ever known. I can't understand why anyone would want to hurt him. Well, it was tough to get used to it at first, but then again, we don't have too many kids around here. Turns out most Pokémon would agree an industrial town under the constant threat of murderers isn't the best place to raise a kid. Most of those families with young kids took off and headed elsewhere, but there's plenty of us that don't want to give up living here. For most of us, it's really all we have."

"I've talked to a few Pokémon about what they know of these Stalkers and there's some creepy characters around town. Vicker, for instance. That guy never talks to anyone but his wife, Muruna. She's such an angel. But Vicker... I've told Muruna she should look into divorcing him, but she's just too kind and submissive. She's always bringing up her wedding vows and that kind of thing. But do me a favor and keep an eye on Vicker. I'm usually pretty trusting and forgiving, but something isn't quite right with him. And the things he says to his wife sometimes... he should remember his vows too."

Franny then checks the time and nods. You can see her brief break period seems to be over.

"Well, I've got to head back into action," Franny tells you with a gentle smile. "I've got to help prep equipment for a surgery we're going to have tomorrow. Let me tell you, when it comes to working on fire types, trying to achieve hemostasis is such a tricky thing. All the best, Madder, it was nice meeting you!"

She then heads off, leaving you alone.

I'll search Senger Manufacturing 4-6 since the lower floors are being done already.

[Neo Emolga]

Hm well, a coffin at the auto-dealers is kind of weird, but I'll come back to it later. For now I think I'll go search through 10a Senger Manufacturing floors 1-3. Maybe I'll find some old supplies that could be useful.

At night, the Senger Manufacturing plant is very quiet and not a whole lot happens during the night around this gray, L-shaped building. You figure this would be the best time to check considering the day activity and noises wouldn't break your concentration.

You decide to check through the first, second, and third floors. Inside, despite it being quiet and dark, the building is well-maintained and you see they take the sterilization process pretty seriously here and don't let it become compromised. The first floor also houses a lot of the administration offices, as well as areas for research and development, laboratory testing, and new product development. It seems as though work has been significantly set back as the situation with the Stalkers has made it difficult to develop new products. Right now, it looks like Senger is mainly trying to focus on the continuation of manufacturing current existing products and has put innovation on hold until the situation with the Stalkers gets resolved.

Most of the director offices don't seem suspicious, but you do find one that seemed to have belonged to a recently-deceased overseer of engineering, Bresh the Bronzong. It seems like someone has rummaged through his belongings, and you suspect something might have been stolen. On the desk itself, you also notice a watch, only it looks like someone deliberately smashed it, as if whoever had a grudge against Bresh knew this was a personal heirloom that would have him turning in his grave if he knew this was what happened to it.

[Broken Watch: <Repair>]

Considering you have the repair skills, you piece it back together. The components aren't in too bad shape, and you're able to improvise enough to get it back up and running. May not be good as new, but good as in it runs again and you figure the spirit of Bresh can now rest easy.

Item [Bresh's Watch] has been added to the Team Inventory.

You're not sure if there's another secret behind the watch that someone wanted to conceal by breaking it, but for now, you decide holding onto it would be best in case whoever did this comes back.

After checking out the second and third floors, you don't really find anything significant that stands out. It seems this particular area has been safe from the Stalkers for now, but as you know from experience, that can change in a heartbeat.

You decide to then head back to base.

I'd like to interview Yandil the Smeargle, without confronting him about the words we found.

Interview Rapport: POSITIVE, MODEST

LOL @ "Modesty"

One of the first things that strikes you as obvious when it comes to Yandil is that he constantly seems to be rushing and working and is about as Type A as a living creature could possibly get. Even the fact you decide to take a few minutes of his time for a conversation seems to get his stress racing in that it's taking time away from something else he needs to get done, although you have a feeling a lot of this is self-inflicted busywork that may not even be necessary.

"Significant?" he asks, looking like that sounds ludicrous to him. "I could tell you, but it would take me days to put it all in wording. Days. No time."

You make it clear you're looking more for information regarding the Stalkers.

"Right," he nods sarcastically. "I don't even have the time to worry about them, either. You know what? If you run into one of them, do me a favor and tell them I really don't have the time to be dead, so if they could go off someone else instead, that'd be really great."

"Look, I just can't chat right now," Yandil tells you, breaking the conversation as quickly as possible. "Not ever, really. I've got ten technical reports to write tonight and it looks like it's going to be an all-nighter. And I really need to get started NOW."

He then runs off, even without saying goodbye.
