Finn Kingsley makes his way into the vacant building carrying his bag, with trucks of furniture and men behind him. 758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QTGcxViec
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.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmzyhZv4F3
He unlocked the doors for the movers to move in the furniture, opens the blinds, and starts sweeping the floor.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfKkJfEVID
"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.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3W7QOdG1A2
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.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLmwCBRyZw
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.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzv4wRlc03X
"Mr. Kingsley, a word with you?" A voice behind him said.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjLYFKyB1g
It was the woman from the movers' company, who he believed has come to claim the pay check.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXZuqmdYOk
"Of course." He responded.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyQOwk3A2Z
They walked to the back room, and closed the door behind them.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CYr4GcXbU
"What is it, miss?" He asked.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxFTsOTZ9G
"The boss tells me to tell you to be mindful of yourself and your surroundings. Olive may be where miracles happen--"758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVclOnGi2Z
He let out a little laugh, and was quickly shut down by her glare.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAJC8XAzjU
"--but besides miracles there are mysteries, so please be careful."758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunbZNIDxKN
She hands him an envelope with his name on the back, and a wax seal on the front.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJHp39U2d6
"I will take my leave now." She was about to exit, when he stopped her.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkq4ijYJpPO
"Wait, the pay check? Are you not going to ask for it?" He asked.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6frI6f2IJ
"It must be paid directly to the boss or the boss's secretary. His office is at Hearth Street." She said and left.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ496b2rudir
Alone in the back room, he removes the wax seal and takes a letter out of the envelope.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSprOYQEl94
To Finn Kingsley:758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdk2PkJYHDh
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.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zuxgJSY7L
More about myths later. First, as a welcoming gift, 3 of the 10 mysteries of this town:758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YLp5552XN
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.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoUIY991AF
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.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7HNhESej4
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.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDf8JYGHkw2
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.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGOmOOYo9O
Go to my office at Hearth Street if you’re gonna pay for the movers (required).758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BqWSPjX3R
I do not suggest learning the other seven mysteries, but go ahead at your own risk.
Signed,
Boss Grayson758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYJoISw3ci
Finn folded the letter and put it I the envelope the moment someone knocked at the door.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknT4l1gWg3
“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.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKazjcs2s4
“Oh, coming.” He replied.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH93W39mltl
The ten mysteries and the town of Olive. It makes him thirst for knowledge, and his curiosity wishes to be fulfilled.758Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc08oETzqFa
“Do you have a town library?” Finn asked.
