Yeah, totally! Camelia does top-of-the-line research! Gets a lot of grands from the government and stuff.
The HQ being in Estelline is basically just how it wound up - the company was founded here and the more it grew, it just kind of became the main employer in town. Estelline's always been a sleepy little place, mostly a college town.
