The Dragon Quest series has long since grown, moving from the main series to JPRG, launching various spin-offs that (more or less directly) deal with different genres. While we have city builders in Dragon Quest Builders, we also have the musou combat of Dragon Quest Heroes, and more recently the action RPG Dragon Quest Treasures. But in addition to fighting monsters, Square Enix’s franchise also wanted to master the creatures drawn by Akira Toriyama like magical Pokémon, and Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince was born from this idea. According to its creators, the story is intended to satisfy both Dragon Quest veterans and newcomers to the series, this time following a hero who, due to a curse, is unable to harm any of the monsters that attack him, so he advances across Nadia Land’s strategy is to raise an army of monsters to fight on his behalf. Your abilities include not only taming creatures, but also strengthening them, breeding them, and even combining them to create more powerful creatures. Once you have a team to match up with, you can battle other trainers in the Coliseum Arena to prove who is the best. Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince is coming to Nintendo Switch on December 1, and you can watch a trailer for the game below. HQ

Resignation as President of the Tyrolean Chamber of Commerce – personal statement from Christoph Walser
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
2023-11-10 17:03:44
Innsbruck (OTS) – “I lived and fulfilled my role as President of the Tyrolean Chamber of Commerce with heart and soul. However, due to my passion for this issue, I did not always give the necessary space to my role and responsibility as an entrepreneur. Dealing with this situation now requires everyone Strength and concentration. That is why, for personal reasons, I am resigning from my office as President of the Tyrolean Chamber of Commerce, my functions in the Tyrolean Economic Association, my office as mayor and as President of the Tyrolean Tennis Association. This decision is also the only right one to protect myself and my family and necessary to approach the task at hand professionally and responsibly.
It was and is my innermost drive to use my know-how, my talents, my energy and my time to ensure that entrepreneurs in our country can do more. The five years of my time as President of the Chamber of Commerce were marked by crises and brief glimmers of hope. It was five years that demanded a lot from our entrepreneurs and their employees, the Tyrolean Chamber of Commerce, their officials and employees and myself. And it was five years that left their mark.
Business only works in a team. In the last five years, the team around me has grown beyond itself and made an enormous contribution to overcoming the major challenges of our member companies. At this point I would like to thank Director Evelyn Geiger-Anker and the employees of the Chamber of Commerce, my Vice Presidents Martina Entner, Barbara Thaler, Martin Wetscher, Manfred Pletzer and Anton Rieder as well as the team of department, specialist group and district office representatives , with whom we not only overcame crises together, but also made the Tyrolean Chamber of Commerce itself fit for the future.
My special thanks also go to Franz Hörl, our Economic Association chairman. He is – whether for the Chamber of Commerce or in the Economic Association – a driving force with an eye on the big picture and his commitment has always contributed to strengthening the common course for our location. As group leader, he will ensure that no vacuum is created in the Chamber of Commerce and that the representation of interests continues to function smoothly.
For me, it’s all regarding a clear focus on the next steps that are now necessary. Steps that affect me and my immediate living environment. I therefore ask for your understanding for this decision, which for me is a difficult but all the more important.”

The man who killed an alleged thief in Río Cuarto is free
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
2023-11-10 17:04:26
The Prosecutor of Instruction of the Third Shift in Río Cuarto, Fernando Moine, told him granted freedom to the person who killed a young man who had tried to steal his motorcycle, in the early hours of this Friday on Mugnaini Boulevard and Beccarini Passage.
According to the public ministry, the 40-year-old man “was notified of his rights and guarantees and a series of conditions were set for him, including the obligation to appear when summoned for investigation by the Prosecutor’s Office.”
The bloody event occurred following 5 AM in front of the Atenas field and a Río Cuarto supermarket. Apparently, the perpetrator of the alleged homicide in self-defense lives nearby. He was intercepted by two young people on a motorcycle (a 110 cc) who, with firearms, tried to steal his Tornado motorcycle.
According to reports, a shooting was heard. They found several shell casings and shell casings at the scene. The man pulled out his 9-millimeter gun and shot Alexis Ferreyra (19) in the head, who died shortly following at the San Antonio de Padua hospital. The perpetrator of the fatal shot was the one who called the Police. He said that he was assaulted and handed over to the authorities his weapon registered in Anmac (formerly Renar) and his possession permit.
At first, it was delayed. Meanwhile, Ferreyra’s relatives desperately processed social assistance to bury him.
The Police seized two weapons at the scene, the 9 millimeter pistol delivered by the perpetrator of the fatal shot and another 32 caliber. It is presumed that the companion of the deceased young man would also have been armed. The police still mightn’t find him.
The perpetrator is a legitimate user of weapons
The name of the 40-year-old man who killed the alleged criminal was not officially given. He revealed that his initials are WPF, that he has no criminal record, and that the 9 millimeter weapon with which he shot Ferreyra in the head was declared. He would have a permit to possess a weapon, not to carry it.
Versions indicate that the investigation aims to determine the mechanics of the events and whether there may have been an excess in their actions.
As you will remember, possession is the proof that enables you to have a civilian weapon, transport it unloaded and separated from its ammunition, and use it for lawful purposes (hunting, sports shooting, etc.). The weapon must be registered with Anmac.
According to Argentine legislation, in order to have the credential of legitimate user of firearms it is necessary to pass a psychophysical examination, certify the absence of criminal records, prove suitability in the handling of firearms with the signature of a qualified shooting instructor and present proof of legal means of livelihood.
Meanwhile, the carrying of weapons consists of permission to have a loaded firearm in conditions of immediate use in a public place. Their authorization is restricted (Armed Forces personnel, Police, custody of money, etc.). All these issues are regulated by the National Law on Weapons and Explosives (1973) which establishes the categories of weapons of war and civil use. The procedures are carried out before the National Agency for Controlled Materials (Anmac), within the scope of the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights of the Nation.

Toxic Water Contamination Scandal in 12 Hennuyer Villages: Implications and Solutions
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
2023-11-10 13:14:00
The inhabitants of 12 Hennuyer villages unknowingly consumed water contaminated with these toxic components for almost a year and a half, between October 2021 and March 2023. This is a level five times higher than the tolerable dose set by the European Food Safety Authority. Around 12,000 people would be affected. This is what journalists from the Investigation (RTBF) program discovered.
It appears that the political authorities and responsible administrations were informed of the existence of this pollution, a contamination so toxic that residents of the municipalities concerned are today asked not to consume locally produced eggs and vegetables.
At the beginning of 2023, Flemish Minister of the Environment Zuhal Demir (N-VA) twice sent a letter to the Walloon and Brussels ministers to inform them of this contamination. The letter was sent to Brussels residents Alain Maron (Climate, Ecolo) and Elke Van den Brandt (Mobility, Groen), Christie Morreale (Social Action, PS) and Céline Tellier (Environment, Ecolo).
The letters informed them that the water arriving in Flanders and imported via the town of Halle was subject to local contamination which seemed problematic at first glance. A first letter was sent on March 30, 2022.
“Our tap water is drinkable but it is not pure”: for this recognized expert in toxicology, two groups of the population should avoid it
A little less than a year later, on January 30, 2023, Zuhal Demir contacted the ministers once more. In the letter that we were able to consult, the minister recalls that in March 2022, she had “suggested to Ministers Tellier and Maron to plan regular consultations on the levels of PFAS in drinking water, with regard to the quality of drinking water and interregional problems”.
”In this letter, I had already mentioned that the PFAS advisory values for drinking water were not always respected in areas where Flanders imports drinking water from other regions,” the letter states.
”Unfortunately, a recent report shows that Halle’s drinking water, supplied by Vivaqua, contains PFAS values significantly higher than the health values of the EFSA (European Food Safety Authority, Editor’s note), but also significantly higher than future European standards of the reinforced drinking water directive of the European Union.”
At the beginning of November, the Demir cabinet sent a letter to its Walloon and Brussels counterparts. Referring to previous letters of March 30, 2022 and January 30, 2023 concerning the supply of drinking water containing PFAS to Flemish water distribution companies, the minister asks political leaders to inform her “of the state of the research on PFAS levels in the Walloon and Brussels water system for the production of drinking water”.
After the broadcast of the RTBF report, the Minister of the Environment Céline Tellier (Ecolo) announced that she wanted to provide the affected populations with “all the information they need”. The environmentalist minister specified that she had “initiated contacts with the mayors concerned” and also “decided to convene the Walloon Water Company (SWDE) to shed light on the communication process which seems to have been lacking at the time”.
Obviously, the communication process had actually already broken down at the political level.
Following the revelations of contamination, residents of the most affected municipalities did not hide their anger at the lack of communication from public authorities on such a serious reality which undoubtedly put their health at risk.
These new elements can only prove them right.
