Adding the Dyeworks Accident event from 3


-> ''You have to be very intelligent to understand dialectics. The method is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of continental philosophy most of it will go over a typical undergraduate's head. There's also Hegel's master-slave dialectic, which is deftly woven into his work — his personal philosophy draws heavily on Kantian literature, for instance. Hegelians understand this stuff, they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depth of his work, to realize that it's not just logos, it says something deep about life.''

* The flavor text for the Dyeworks Accident event in 3 mentions repeatedly how workers "dyed"...
-> "Several workers dyed today at the [state name] dyeworks, when an industrial-sized tub of hot dye accidentally spilled out over the workshop floor and the unsuspecting workers. Locals are upset about the incident, claiming that the poor safety regulations in the hot and dangerous workplace are to blame for the accident, and are urging the government to take action. As rescue workers left the scene, several workshop employees were left dyeing."
--> Option 1: We shall all dye sooner or later.
--> Option 2: They shall not have dyed in vain!
