When I first moved to this area, I noticed a lack of something; a gap in the market if you will. Being a businessman, I seek to fill that gap and in doing so, the Rumsford Consortium is pleased to announce that a bank will be opened in Clockhaven in addition to a small private security company, aiming to secure all assets within the city and ensure that bank client’s residents will be fully secured for.
We at the Consortium hope to work closely with local government and with the Volunteer Milita in order to provide a better and new era in security for New Babbage.
Much regard,
Parker Rumsford,
Chairman of the Rumsford Consortium

Secure ALL assets within the city? Hands off my cafe!

Indeed. The phrase ‘secure all assets’ is a euphemism traditionally used by invading armies who really mean to loot the place and jail or kill all who resist.
Rather like modern marketing methods, actually.

If you would be interested, I can act as liason between your business and the local government.
