If you were supposed to get an email from the forum but didn't (e.g. to verify your account for registration), email Wes at stararmy@gmail.com or talk to me on Discord for help. Sometimes the server hits our limit of emails we can send per hour.
It seems like a good enough idea, though Wren is simply a stock-girl, so she wouldn't have any power or reason to attend. I'm kinda lazy in terms of NPC's for the store, and so the managers would be some of 'those guys' and act as antagonists to Wren and any other workers at the Origin store.
