You are in the deep bog inside Tolman Pumping and Substance Processing Station. The floor is a sterile white tile. Pipes connect holding tanks and go elsewhere. Giant fans whirl. Behemoth machines take up most of the area and hum constantly.
- You examine the typewriter-like device. Protruding from a slot and folding up on the floor is a long sheet of paper. The only thing of interest, you pick up the sheet and start reading from a random spot, sometimes skipping large sections.
