Finn Kingsley makes his way into the vacant building carrying his bag, with trucks of furniture and men behind him. 831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXARS5lrE00
He looks back to two men carrying a large neon sign with the words, "King's Cafe". A little smile escapes, as he turned back to the building.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxJFmfdxp5
He unlocked the doors for the movers to move in the furniture, opens the blinds, and starts sweeping the floor.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbk4TllQS3p
"Welcome to Olive, Where Miracles Happen!", he remembered the words written on the welcome sign. He laughed a bit seeing that, as he never believed in miracles, or God, or anything really.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ146KO50s4S
Now that he finished sweeping the floor, he slowly gets bored and starts walking around. He went into the empty kitchen, the white tiles on the wall almost indistinguishable from the layers of dirt. The comfort rooms were no better either, and every stall had no toilet or sink.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP834eMPrBr
He had bought this building from a close friend who decided to move out of Olive due to reasons and took this opportunity to start a small business with the funds he received from his parents.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAD54zlVhu
"Mr. Kingsley, a word with you?" A voice behind him said.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7B9YsgeeDm
It was the woman from the movers' company, who he believed has come to claim the pay check.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3l2voWDT5
"Of course." He responded.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyJMMhPYmE
They walked to the back room, and closed the door behind them.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgA9WzCInr
"What is it, miss?" He asked.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvgkQR4cUS
"The boss tells me to tell you to be mindful of yourself and your surroundings. Olive may be where miracles happen--"831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9MJ7q1jpg
He let out a little laugh, and was quickly shut down by her glare.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9FB2PX5Ql
"--but besides miracles there are mysteries, so please be careful."831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQ7YPXUgg7
She hands him an envelope with his name on the back, and a wax seal on the front.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnVXGbrolj
"I will take my leave now." She was about to exit, when he stopped her.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXkcIfQ72N
"Wait, the pay check? Are you not going to ask for it?" He asked.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jNuYdUVKr
"It must be paid directly to the boss or the boss's secretary. His office is at Hearth Street." She said and left.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4JPwvFf1e
Alone in the back room, he removes the wax seal and takes a letter out of the envelope.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR9rkcWPHa
To Finn Kingsley:831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiFDyIEdRk
Welcome to Olive! You might only know about this town about the miracle thing, but listen—there’s more to this town than that. You may not believe in mysteries and myths or you might believe in them, it doesn’t matter. They’re all real in this town.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmzpzgfgGo
More about myths later. First, as a welcoming gift, 3 of the 10 mysteries of this town:831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nzisSKLDp
Do you know about the greek gods? Well, Mystery no. 1 is about the fading goddess of the Sun. Rumors say her name is Alectrona. That’s all you should know, the rest of it is too gruesome.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSLPuy1p2e
Mystery no. 2 is about the Faeries of Grover Lake. Rumor has it that sacrificing a virgin in this lake can grant you any wish no matter how crazy.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9XGyupdeR
Mystery no. 3 is called the Portal to Olympus. Remember the first mystery right? Well, apparently there’s a place in Olive where you can accidentally be transported to Olympus at 12:00 n.n and at 12:00 m.m, by giving an offering to the greek gods.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WHiCQdfZE
I think the other seven mysteries aren’t meant for newbies like you. But whether or not they’re real, you’ll have to be careful. Weird shit happens in Olive.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoh3C9TgK9d
Go to my office at Hearth Street if you’re gonna pay for the movers (required).831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpi9kwziZrD
I do not suggest learning the other seven mysteries, but go ahead at your own risk.
Signed,
Boss Grayson831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDw0krifT0
Finn folded the letter and put it I the envelope the moment someone knocked at the door.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhoYupT4zk
“Sir, we’re done moving the tables, chairs, and appliances in. How do you want us to arrange them?” A voice on the other side of the door said.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSmmkW97bp
“Oh, coming.” He replied.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgpDxojjiL
The ten mysteries and the town of Olive. It makes him thirst for knowledge, and his curiosity wishes to be fulfilled.831Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIzKrWW8hM
“Do you have a town library?” Finn asked.
