-===== Iqaluit =====
+===== Bouvet Island =====
-[[wp>Iqaluit|Iqaluit, Canada]] is the location of an Emtanon field office. In May 2023, it was the starting point of the interns' journey to Gough Island.
+**[[wp>Bouvet Island]]** is a subantarctic desert island in the South Atlantic Ocean. In June 2023, it was visited by the ship TRANSP, although the details were not revealed. In October 2023, new Marine Org recruits were sent there for training, personally supervised by [[characters#dr_j_marvin_blackweather|J]].
+In January 2024, J acquired North Korean missiles from Kim Jong Un, to be placed on Bouvet. Construction has been underway since March 2024.
 ===== Gough Island =====
-[[wp>Gough Island]] is a tiny island in the South Atlantic Ocean, halfway between South America and Africa. Its only population is the personnel of a South African weather station. That station has been contracted to Emtanon since 2018.
+**[[wp>Gough Island]]** is a tiny island in the South Atlantic Ocean, halfway between South America and Africa. Its only population is the personnel of a South African weather station.
-Under Emtanon, the weather station acted as a front for //Goughcom//, a communications facility elsewhere on the island. [[felicity_s_diary#door|Felicity's diary]] described it as a massive underground complex. In the early morning of October 21, 2023, Goughcom was blown up by [[characters#jeff_a|Jeff]]'s electronics planted a few months earlier.
+This weather station has been contracted to Emtanon since 2018, which uses it as a front to maintain communications equipment on the island, an operation known as **Goughcom**.
+In [[:xorfs:18050-18099#section18077|December 2022]], an Emtanon employee suggested hiring "interns" to keep up with the South African requirements. The recruiting was done through Craigslist, advertised as a 6-month assignment starting in May 2023. Among those hired was [[characters:felicity_love|Felicity]], who escaped barely a month later. In September 2023, the remaining interns were enlisted in the [[organizations#Marine Org]].
+In October 2023, Goughcom was blown up by [[characters:jeff_a|Jeff]]'s electronics planted a few months earlier. However, the disruption caused by this lasted only about ten days, as new equipment was quickly installed in a shipping container.
+In February 2024, construction began on a new facility called "Gough North", which is a mystery as of yet.
 ===== Leskov Island =====
-[[wp>Leskov Island]] is a tiny desert island, a few degrees north of the Antarctic Circle. In late 2022, Emtanon started a project to construct a shortwave radio station there. The bulk of construction work was done in June 2023, but as of October 2023, it is still not online due to hardware issues. Sabotage is suspected.
+**[[wp>Leskov Island]]** is a subantarctic desert island. In [[:xorfs:18000-18049#section18043|October 2022]], Emtanon started a project to construct a shortwave radio station there, which will be used to trigger power blackouts on demand using a backdoor in home appliances.
-===== Bouvet Island =====
+The bulk of construction work was done in June 2023. However, the commissioning has been repeatedly delayed due to mysterious hardware failures, leading to opinions that the site is "cursed". In April 2024, unknown parties broke into the location and caused mayhem.
-[[wp>Bouvet Island]] is another tiny desert island, also close to the Antarctic Circle. In June 2023, it was visited by the ship TRANSP, although the details were not revealed. In October 2023, the new Marine Org recruits (former Gough Island interns) were sent there for training.
+It is said that Leskov's inaugural broadcast will include the song //[[We Promise You]]// and a speech by [[characters#Dr. J Marvin Blackweather]].
