In following with tradition, the Daily Hollow made it a point to impart important information to the people of Redwood Hollow, through unbiased articles printed in its daily broadsheet.

While, for the most part, the news was simple, in reflecting the sleepy nature of the town, it had, as of late, been selling more papers than ever, with new, unsettling things happening every few months for the past couple of years increasing in rapidity as they drew on.

The Redwood Review, however, thrived mostly on mindless gossip, drawing its main inspiration from the likes of tabloids and TIKTOK conspiracy theorists. They, too, had their fair share of sell-out issues, though it was rare that the Daily Hollow and the Redwood Review ever approached their stories from the same angle.

One report, appearing in both papers that morning, however, was factually identical.

Newlyweds James and Tina Bell return from honeymoon one week early.

What a strange update for both. The Redwood Review had to speculate that there were already troubles in the water, and that the Newlyweds must have waited till the honeymoon to decide that they couldn't stand each other. Trouble and an annulment must surely be on the horizon!

The Daily Hollow, however, took a different approach. They sent someone to the door to find out what was going on (a more invasive strategy than they would have liked, but it was all about journalistic integrity!) The answer they received, from a seemingly rough looking James Bell né Hook, was simply "illness".

That was seemingly the end of the story, or so the journalists at both papers thought. The couple had scarcely been seen since their return, and all siting confirmed that both of them did, indeed, look worse for wears.

Another five days passed.

"Redwood Hollow Town Square is to receive an upgrade on all plaques."

"Local farmer now able to harvest potatoes at twice the speed thanks to new combine harvester!"

Day six.

"Breaking News: Owner of the Neverland Hotel's new bride in hospital after mysterious illness.

After returning from their honeymoon one week early due to an unknown illness, James Bell's new wife, Tina Bell, has been rushed to hospital amid fears for her life. Reports close to the couple say that this illness closely resembles the symptoms of the attack on Mr. Henrik Hera months prior, where it was found that Mr. Hera had poison in his system at the time of hospitalisation. Mr. Bell has also been admitted for close monitoring but was unfit to give a statement."
