[HOE] The Librarian's Almanac for May 10th

["mkcone" <quarterrats@prodigy.net>]

SHAN FAN RUINS, NORCAL- “Beggar” Mallory, the proprietor of the popular
Waster’s Respite hotel in the ruins is offering a slight reward for the
return of her companion. Flathead, a local asset recovery specialist, was
last seen being pursued through the ruins on the north side of the bay by a
jeep full of thugs. Folks are curious because Flathead was claiming to have
discovered a complex network of caves under the Shan Fan ruins. Those
interested may find Mallory at either the Respite or the Gekko Lounge down
the block.

JACKPOT, NEVADA- The local Doomsayer outpost has come under heavy nocturnal
attack for the last three nights. Despite an awe-inspiring display of
Doomsayer powers, no perpetrator has been caught. Brother Curie is offering
a collection of milrats and Southern Alliance ammunition in return for the
assailant’s capture. It should be noted that the normie population of
Jackpot has been unusually quiet about the affair that has involved low-tech
booby traps, thrown rocks and pits filled with stakes.


Submitted by the Librarian Kane

JUNKYARD, UTAH- Librarian Kane reported this disturbing news at the Junkyard
Branch Library.  While traveling from Tucson to Junkyard, he came across
several instances of dataslugs that had been wiped of their information.
Evidence suggests that they had not been blank to begin with and had carried
reams of useful knowledge.  Even more unsettling, was his discovery of
physical books whose pages were completely blank.  The Librarians are
offering a reward to anyone who can stop whatever abomination is responsible
for these horrendous acts.
