-The weaponsmith trading under the Manor House Mob name without permission has expanded his operation, and is now working alongside an armoursmith. They both maintain they are working directly for a Mr Keswick and a Mr Carlisle.\\
+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.\\
 \\
-The Red Sky phenomenon has claimed a number of lives, mostly of freelancers out on missions when the Red Sky struck. Some organised freelancer groups have let it be known that substantial amounts of money await anyone that can produce a portable shelter or other defence that has rigorous testing data to go with it. One or two of the Bars have also offered bounties for reliable data so that they can start to ship in whatever is needed to solve this. There is definitely a note of desperation in such requests...\\
+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.\\
 \\
-The military have gone exceptionally quiet. Patrols outside their inner perimeter have dropped to near-zero. Rumours are swirling that they've also been caught off-guard by the Red Sky and have no means of dealing with it beyond the same run and hide approach everyone else is using.\\
+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...\\
 \\
-The various Bars have started to increase pay for a lot of the work needing doing. On days with little to no risk of a Red Sky the work is paying roughly what it always did, but by the 4th day the payments start to increase. By the 7th day no work is taken up regardless of pay as everyone knows the Red Sky will hit. A handful of freelancer groups, the bottom-feeders that can rarely get hired, have taken work on day 6 or 7 and made a small fortune, but a high proportion have died trying.\\
+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.\\
