Information on the city. Something to do with a virus.

They all share the same topic: the city's fish market, and the growing decline of business due to contamination and the spread of some sort of virus.

"…increasing suspicion of contamination. More and more lately, countless people around the world have fallen victim to a strange illness. It is not certain whether the people were already ill before becoming infected, however it is certain at this point that the virus is fatal. The source of the deadly virus has been traced back to fish, local only to Discedo’s grand lake. Discedo, with it’s rich history in fishing, has taken a crippling blow as they provide a large percentage of fish in exports to the rest of the world, due to their unique appearance but delicious flavor. Further investigation will be…"

That's from one of the more legible ones.

Old documents with information on the city. They're all about some sort of virus stemming from fish.

...Fish?

That sounds like it might be important... What if there's still something wrong with the lake?

Exceedingly. Is the lake still habitable, though? I didn't think any fish were left.

What do you make of this?

Well, that certainly explains a few things. And if the city were as rich in exporting fish as this claims, it spells a lot of trouble for a lot of people, potentially worldwide.

But this leaves a lot of questions ow- was the virus strictly water borne? Could it be spread via human touch, or just fish consumption? What would cause such a disaster in the first place?

Probably the best place to start would be to check out the water, and the fish itself, but without proper computers we couldn't begin to tell what the issue is.
