A new arrival was seen in Port Laveau this week. The woman studied her phone in the town center late at night. Witnesses said she paused to admire another woman she called attractive.

The Ledger learned that such arrivals have increased. Sources at the Sheriff's Office said the visible economy is only the surface layer. The Syndicate controls the entertainment and service corridors from the Starlust Motel to the Vault Underground Club.

A departmental spokesperson said Port Laveau rewards those who know their place and removes those who do not.
