-Founded in September 2625 — months before Morningstar’s formal establishment — Fogwood Sawmill was the settlement’s first large‐scale timber operation. Drawing on the company’s privately managed woodlands, it oversaw the planting, growth, and harvest of massive hardwood stands. Logs arrive by [[hoos|Hoo]] and conveyor from the forest edge, are milled into lumber, dried in kilns, and then shipped to local carpentries (such as Hussaini Carpentry Inc.), building firms, and frontier construction projects across the [[free_state_of_settlers|Free State of Settlers]].

-Fogwood employs ExoHuman lumberjacks, sawmill operators, and a fleet of [[manual_labor_bots|Manual Labor Bots]] and Maintenance Bots to keep 24/7 production humming—making it both Morningstar’s economic backbone and a vital node in the regional wood supply chain.
+After the [[peace_treaty|Peace Treaty]] and the founding of the [[federal_confederation|Federal Confederation]] in 2632, Fogwood was nationalized and reorganized as the [[federal_wood_plant|Federal Wood Plant]] under the Federal Allotment Agency.

 ===== Look and Feel =====
-Inside, the scent of fresh sap and warmed timber hangs heavy. Rhythmically, logs thunder onto steel rollers; sawdust drifts in the amber glow of high-bay lamps. Manual Labor Bots hum along treads, ferrying planks to kilns while human operators fine-tune blade settings. On the mezzanine, clerks call out orders into GAIA-linked comm-slates. Outside, the distant forest murmurs as cutting crews drive axes and chain-saws through trunks, returning steady supplies to the mill.

 Fogwood Sawmill makes a rich backdrop for industrial intrigue or wilderness missions:
-The Missing Logs: A critical shipment of seasoned lumber vanishes en route to Hussaini Carpentry. PCs must trace the trail back through sabotaged conveyors, forest traps, and a hidden poacher’s camp.
+  * **The Missing Logs:** A critical shipment of seasoned lumber inexplicably vanishes on its short journey from the Fogwood Sawmill to the adjacent Hussaini Carpentry Inc. Since the carpentry is literally next door, there’s no clear route for the logs to disappear — and yet the delivery yard stands empty. Director Hanata Ito, baffled and furious at both the financial loss and the breach of his facility’s security, hires the PCs to unravel the mystery. Can the PCs recover the logs, unmask the saboteurs, and restore Fogwood’s reputation— or will the forest’s shadowy thieves strike again?
-Bot Uprising: A glitch in the Maintenance Bots causes them to rush into the saw hall during peak shift—players must reprogram or disable them before they wreck the mill and harm workers.
-Contract Coup: Rival carpentries plot to undercut Fogwood’s prices by stealing seed stock. PCs infiltrate the woodlands gatehouse, confront poachers, and secure the saplings before chaos spreads.
