Crews ([[the_humans|exohuman]] and [[service_bots|robotic]]) mustered here, inbound logs were scaled and decked, and sealed consignments rolled to the company mill and to partner shops such as [[hussaini_carpentry_inc|Hussaini Carpentry Inc.]] Fogwood operated under preferential logging rights brokered through the [[trade_guild_of_new_kourou|Trade Guild of New Kourou]] and faced mounting protests over aggressive felling in [[the_honga|Honga]] ancestral cycles.

 ===== Tactical Advice for Dungeon Masters =====
-  * **Adventure Hook — Deadfall in the Twilight:** A grader is found crushed beneath a toppled deck stack minutes after confronting a foreman about “ghost” seals. Was it a tragic mis-chock, a bot misfire—or deliberate murder to cover illegal over-cutting? Trade Guild auditors whisper of forged manifests and off-books night turns. The town watch hires the PCs to lock the gate, interview crew and **MLBs**, and trace duplicate seal stamps before the evidence is burned or shipped.
+  * **Adventure Hook — Deadfall at Fogwood Gate:** In the perpetual twilight of Asari, a deck stack collapses and kills a grader moments after he flags a load for “irregular marks.” The MLB’s activity log shows a brief manual override at the capstan, yet the foreman swears no one was on the controls. Chalk grades on the timbers don’t match the ledger, and several butt-ends carry a faint Honga trail glyph, hinting the cut crossed licensed boundaries. The Trade Guild hires the PCs to lock the yard, pull the bot’s control core, and run a manifest-by-manifest audit—then backtrack wagons to the stump line to learn whether this was accident, sabotage or a covert harvest in forbidden stands that could spark wider trouble.
