The Bromeliad 2 - Diggers

In the beginning...
...Arnold Bros. (est. 1905) created the Store.
At least, that was the belief of thousands of nomes who for
many generations* had lived under the floorboards of Arnold Bros.
(est. 1905), an old and respected department store in the middle of
the city.
*[Nome generations, that is. Nomes live ten times faster than
humans. To them, ten years is a long lifetime.]
The Store had become their world.
