2 June 2296 - Containment Missing
The Nordhagen Beach Party Boys have been in search of closer Kevin Containment. After arriving back from their trip to Finch Farm, the Party Boys went to drink and relax at the Beach House restaurant. The next morning, Containment did not arrive at practice.
Today, people around Nordhagen Beach are still searching for him. There were WANTED flyers found in Nordhagen Beach, so it is possible Containment is the victim of foul play.
