In regards to your last inquiry, sir… things could be better. Yes, it is true that revenue is up due to the success of the factory tours. But those profits are being heavily undercut by several other factors:
- The company that you’ve hired for wildlife rehabilitation to take care of our bear and bee problem are encountering some additional concerns. I’ll forward you what they sent me, but it looks like they’re struggling to handle it.
- Because they are struggling with handling our wildlife problem, we are constantly needing to repair a lot of infrastructure. Bay doors torn, camera wires chewed through, hardened honey gumming up the machines on the factory floor… it’s a lot of upkeep.
- Some of the locals have started scaring away some of the tourism. It’s a lot of ‘doom-saying’, boycotting against our mascot, of all things. People seem to be nervous about Arkty.
My proposal? I think we cut our losses. There are other sites in Europe that we can use, ones that won’t come with so much baggage. I know this isn’t what you want to hear, but between the optics on destroying untouched fauna, paired with the unrest online and in the village, I think a full PR tour working to undo what we’ve done is the right step forward.

I see. Well, I appreciate your recommendation. That being said, I’ll talk with the wildlife rehabilitators, and see what our potential next steps are. I haven’t built this company by taking the easy way out. We’ll find a way to prevail through these hardships yet. Please let me know if you see any other underlying trends!
