 ===== Context & Historical Background =====
@@ Line 11: / Line 14: @@
 By early 2626, the [[frontier_supply_company|Frontier Supply Company]] secured a revenue‑share deal to dispense the kits via its [[frontier_quickdraw_network|Frontier Quickdraw Network]], turning personal hygiene into a 24/7 Quickdraw staple. Settlers could “pull clean” any hour, waging filth with a simple lever‑click.
-In the [[the_gamma_age|Gamma Age]], the [[federal_allotment_agency|Federal Allotment Agency]] reserved the remaining kits as emergency hygiene reserves — public distribution ceased, and settlers resorted to the black market.

+In the [[the_gamma_age|Gamma Age]], public distribution ceased. The [[federal_allotment_agency|Federal Allotment Agency]] stockpiled remaining sachets as emergency hygiene reserves — releasing them only under crisis directives. Under [[peace_treaty|Peace Treaty]] mandates, the [[federal_confederation|Federal Confederation]] then commissioned its New Kourou [[federal_personal_care_plant|Federal Personal Care Plant]] to develop a sustainable, locally sourced line of fully biodegradable dry shampoos and soaps, ensuring that disposable kits could be phased out in favor of long‑lasting, eco‑friendly products.

Clues might include mismatched seal stamps in the Receiving Dock, altered ledger lines, a missing refill crate, or Hoos resin on a forbidden mezzanine door.
