IR: History for the Building of Qingbo Stockade

Endmin, we received the data you uploaded.

I understand your desire to learn more about the building of Qingbo Stockade. It is indeed a topic that we should look deeper into. In fact, we were prepared to analyze Qingbo Stockade when news of your arrival at that location reached Dijiang. A database search was initiated at once. Unfortunately, we received very few hits. Even our SOW database contains very little information about the construction of Qingbo Stockade (however, this does not mean we lack understanding on the current status of Qingbo Stockade; regarding information on the region of Wuling, we have already conferred with the Hongshan Academy of Sciences for a timely update in an appropriate manner).

Fortunately, you have also acquired new findings. Through our analysis, we can say with certainty that the building of Qingbo Stockade went through at least two important phases. The first phase involved the elimination of nearby threats, which were likely to be packs of beasts that roamed the area... However, this does not mean that the Blight or Aggeloi posed less of a risk. The local fauna of Qingbo Stockade may have once endangered the livelihood of the local residents to a degree that goes beyond our imagination. The rakerbeasts, howlerbeasts, and waterlamps you have encountered strongly suggest this possibility. Meanwhile, evidence has been found in the database about an Aldertone of the Hannabit Circuit who visited Wuling over 80 years ago. The hanna folksong he left behind includes this line: "An ocean of beasts, a source of the creeks." We were uncertain what the hanna meant until you uploaded your findings. The song is now solid proof how Qingbo Stockade was once threatened by beasts. We postulate that beast taming techniques were developed by Stockaders who tried to fight against these bestial hazards.

Phase two of the building of Qingbo Stockade is probably related to environmental engineering. After reading through the writings and records of the sketcher you uploaded, we also checked ambient readings synced with us when you deployed the Sub-PAC. Our analysis revealed that the overall architectural design of Qingbo Stockade was rather similar to outpost expansion during a certain period in our history. Shortly after the First Aggeloi War ended, researchers proposed many plans for building small outposts. These designs focused on maximizing the use of local topography, adapting to the local environment, and low-cost construction methods to intercept, channel, and divert Blight masses... Qingbo Stockade happens to match this approach. "Water cascades from the heavens above" may seem like an esoteric line, but Qingbo Stockade actually lives up to this name with its high-rise buildings. We can assume, with good reason, that an individual knowledgeable in such architectural approaches lived amongst the Stockaders during that time.

In essence, the building of Qingbo Stockade can be treated as a historical montage about humanity's struggles to survive on Talos-II. It is something that everyone should remember. We thank you for your discoveries, Endministrator.
