## From the Knowledge Book

**Jurgen**

Jurgen used to be an ecologist, but refined his field to myrmecology to study the ants that had started appearing at the Sherekhan Iron Mine after a series of explosions. Much like the ants themselves, Jurgen studies them with a great deal of vigor all day and night. Excited at having recently discovered a method of researching how the ants send signals at the Murrowak Labyrinth using a device invented by Marni, Jurgen now conducts his research from temporarily from the Black Lake Encampment.
