-Freelancers are reporting a string of missions to acquire paper documents rather than digital records. These seem to be largely quite mundane information as well, nothing corporate, nothing scientific, nothing of what anyone would consider real worth within the Zone. Enquiries have not led towards an identity for the hirers of these missions, but staff at all the various bars insist these missions are benign.\\
+Several factions and organised freelancer groups have carried out some quite public executions of what they are claiming were Government infiltrators. It isn't clear how they were identified, but it does seem to be a strange coincidence that several happened within a couple of weeks of each other.\\
 \\
-An unknown party has been claiming to have found the body of Malcolm Cartwell, one of the first truly legendary freelancers, who vanished in early 2026. Claims of Malcolm's death were disputed by a great many people and it was widely believed he had gone into hiding in pursuit of some great secret. The unknown party is said to be seeking aid in recovering the body, and they have given no details on how recently he would appear to have died.
+The Truthers in particular have been displaying a very uncharacteristic level of brutality, with two members being taken out of a base camp and nailed to nearby trees before being shot dead 24 hours later. A couple of Awakened watching over the Truther camp reported that both victims had wounds on their left forearms consistent with something being cut out of them.\\

+A former corporate security officer turned freelancer has been telling tales of a band of freelancers that assaulted his employers and forced him to flee (hence his abrupt career change). He doesn't bear any particular ill will, business is business, but he is telling a curious tale about a red sky hitting them all mid-fight. The freelancers outside the buildings all collapsed, as would be expected, but when the red sky ended they all got up again. The tale has gotten a little outlandish in the re-telling, but the core fact remains. Someone has the means to survive the red sky. Tech like that is worth a fortune...\\
 \\
+Yet another in a long line of religious cults has flared up, but in this case it doesn't appear to be locals suddenly finding religion, rather a group of fanatics has made their way into the Zone and set themselves up here. Very few people have encountered them directly but those who have met them say they seem to be a pleasant enough bunch, and nowhere near as evangelical as others have been.\\

+Elias is finally dead. The Bars have reported that their collective bounty has been claimed and the proof of death was considered highly reliable. He was reportedly found in the last of the grey masks and has been identified using the only known photograph of him. Concerns have been raised amongst some more long-standing Zone residents that Elias's list of complaints is still outstanding and it's only a matter of time before someone else steps up.\\

+Scavengers have reported several dead combatants around a destroyed container. They were a strange mix of soldiers, freelancers and a couple of known faction members, but they all had some kind of device implanted at the base of their skull. The scavengers have sold the devices on, but have been quite free with the story of what they found.\\
+\\
+The trio of German influencers appears to be no more. A very substantial bounty was raised on them, and two of the three bounties were collected very, very quickly. The hunt is on for the third influencer but a great many freelancers have said they will not make any attempt on this bounty. Quiet enquiries are being made as to who raised the bounty on three unarmed entirely harmless civilians.\\

+An as yet unidentified individual has been distributing bacon sandwiches at various freelancer hangouts and outside the Bar. It isn't clear why, what they hoped to gain by this or where they got the bacon. The last question is proving to be the main sticking point, with the saga of the lamb salesmen suddenly looming large in people's minds and those who consumed the sandwiches are suddenly rather concerned at their own lack of foresight.
