A cozy garden cabin harboring the entrance to a secret Ominent facility. Visit at your own risk (and expense)!

Hovers and grazes near the garden at night and sleeps during the day. Can drop glow goo and iridescent scale on death.

Marty, I’m not so sure about you bringing this specimen to the planter station.

I know it’s important genetic research, but without a way to contain it, the work is impossible!

Sylvia, Dominic, and I are moving to another site until you can get this THING under control. We won’t risk getting injured over a faulty experiment. That would make us just as bad as Beaumont and her unquestioning lab coat stooges.

The seed can germinate without our help as long as it stays buried.

If you're reading this, then you Ominent clowns finally got your act together and "domesticated" some soldier ants. You can have your Omni-Tools and your knick-knacks back. I took what I needed.

Honestly, I didn't even need to grab all this. I just enjoyed watching you dweebs struggle without your little Omni-Things. You know you can build your own tools, right? Of course you don't. You aren't real survivors, you're playing pretend. It's a bit sad.

But not as sad as selling your soul to the highest bidder.

Tonight I will make it all the way to the bottom of the pond, no matter what this hell park or Ominent throw in my way. 555 has the truth and I just need to catch up with her. Together, we can keep Sloane Beaumont's chaos in check. We will no longer be at the mercy of corporate pivots and suicidal assignments! True science needs to be rescued. And for that we need... power. If I don’t make it, keep making discoveries. As long as you don’t let them crush your creative spirit, we will win! Okay. I think that’s everything I wanted to say. Deep breaths. I'll see ya on the other side.

…which is why I advise that we re-inventory all particle emitting objects inside the reservoir, including organic and inorganic material.

I’m aware many of the records of the SPAC.R experimentation trials were destroyed during the investigation, but as long as we have access to the people who were there (in person!), we can try to make sure everything is accounted for.

We’ve been recovering sample after sample, and particle accumulation has not slowed. It’s possible (likely?) we are still underestimating the amount of material down there.

We cannot calculate appropriate “grilling” coefficients without a full picture of the reservoir’s contents.

I’m attaching a complete inventory procedure. I hope you’ll consider it.

Special Communique
To the attention of: Employee ID 78, Network Center

Mr. Thompson, it has come to the attention of the archival team—through careful examination of field reports submitted in your name—that you appear to have misunderstood the intent of such reporting.

While partaking in occasional "people watching" is an accepted use of break time, the field archive team is not an audience for diatribes about subjects of low corporate interest.

Ominent Practical Technologies has no direct use for endless documentation about the no-doubt many pretty girls visiting Brookhollow Park on sunny afternoons. This is not what our state-of-the-art camera network is for.

From now on, please refrain from filing any more documents with the bureau without management approval.

A brittle treasure key caked in ice crystals. You probably shouldn't lick it.

A common gastropod found around the park. Drops raw meat, slime and eye stalks on death. Bust the shell for garden snail fragments.

A freight train of a creature which slithers at dizzying speeds through the trenches of the Croquet Area. Can drop snake scales when struck by a daring rider.

NOTE FOR ALL NEW TEAM MEMBERS

Resource Acquisition might seem like a simple assignment, but you gotta watch your step round these parts. Woolly aphids can sneak up on you when you least expect it. See a cute blue thing with fur? Step back. They startle easy, and they’ll freeze your foot off.

This is what happens when bugs are injected with souped up mint candy, it turns out. And now the brain geniuses at the O.G.R.R. Labs are saying another batch of those frisky little abominations just escaped.

Now you may be wondering why we’re boosting bugs with candy juice all of a sudden. My man up there says they were throwing stuff at the wall to get a smile from our big boss gal. You know the one.

And you better believe they got the go ahead to do it to bigger, badder critters! So, watch your back. Watch everyone’s backs. They’re bound to lose some of those too eventually.

A fissure in the ground glowing with a mysterious pink light. Visible from Ominent's observation deck.

A trophy cricket glazed with Hot Chachas and stuffed with gnat meat. A delightful feast for lizards.

A tool fundamentally inferior to your trusty Omni-Tool. Only Luddites use single-purpose tools these days.

The northmost entrance to a large anthill. It seems pretty busy, with a lot of ants scurrying in and out. What could they be hiding in there?

The mighty grill master has fallen. Your once thoroughly headed friend is now headless. His body hollow and metallic. Lifeless. Cheerless.

Not exactly the best footwear for gardening.

Hi Candyman! You’re probably wondering: who’s Candyman? It’s you. For reasons that will become clear as I continue to say words, to you. Remember when I assigned your team to work on the cheeky little candy flavors with supernatural properties? Candy! Of all things. I feel like I’m six years old. You’ve probably noticed that sour has seeped into the ecosystem around here. Well, I say we might as well embrace it! We want you to infuse bugs with candy power. We need to know just how super charged a bug can get. It’s obvious 2 and 2 make 4 type research. I don’t need to explain why we’re supercharging bugs with candy powers. You get it. I’ll let you sync up with Pumpkin, a human being, at the O.G.R.R. labs. You should be working together on this. I genuinely believe we can make bugs even more terrifying! Much love, Sloane.

A musty old magnetic card which gives access to the Monitoring Station's junk room where Ominent stored extra robot parts. If a spare robot body exists for BURG.L that'd be a good place to look, right?

A beast of a lizard! A chill pet but a super deadly foe.

An abandoned news camera used by local TV news station KLBB11. The team hopes to recover the expensive WunderKamera SCOPE model.
