IR: City of "Suiming"

Greetings, Endministrator. We have received the materials you have gathered and analyzed it at once.

From the records you provided and the story narrated by Mr. Yu Shigui, we can deduce that the city named "Suiming" is rather different from the more usual types of human settlements found on Talos-II. Overall, Suiming would be closer to a large R&D complex that focused on Tianshi Pillar technologies. Most of the city buildings served R&D and/or data storage functions, while most city residents were scientists and their family members. Most of the scientists were migrants from other cities and a number of them never managed to return home.

Opinions differ regarding the causes of the major disaster mentioned in the story (which is likely to have referenced an actual incident). The majority believes that the disaster was caused by periodic fluctuations of the Blight Tide and an inadequately developed early warning system. However, a sizable number of researchers believe that the disaster struck the city because the Hongshan Academy of Sciences (HAS) lacked experience and countermeasures for handling contingencies of such a nature.

Suiming City itself may be a fictional city created by several novelists or storytellers based on hearsay and rumors of various HAS Scientific Developmental Districts. For example, the "permission for raising a city" is based on the founding of the Wuling Science Station near the Wuling Very Large Rift (VLR).

Thus, based on the aforementioned conclusions we have drawn, records of this city can be treated as a tale of fiction that is based on actual events. Treating the story as a reflection of the people's hope and desires when facing a sudden disaster, as well as a yearning for changing the past ... is perfectly understandable.
