Finn Kingsley makes his way into the vacant building carrying his bag, with trucks of furniture and men behind him. 774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWPrj7o4PM
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.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UO5E6pM2U
He unlocked the doors for the movers to move in the furniture, opens the blinds, and starts sweeping the floor.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kxJmS0YLN
"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.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLHcBLcbbM
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.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlA9Xa9u6UC
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.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhHdV1kJQb
"Mr. Kingsley, a word with you?" A voice behind him said.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzCivia7qi
It was the woman from the movers' company, who he believed has come to claim the pay check.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkq4bu2bMfH
"Of course." He responded.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBZLj8GyQu
They walked to the back room, and closed the door behind them.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCTQ7RugYr
"What is it, miss?" He asked.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtSiFrQLYa
"The boss tells me to tell you to be mindful of yourself and your surroundings. Olive may be where miracles happen--"774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxrDMe8I5h
He let out a little laugh, and was quickly shut down by her glare.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4O87ifC3lG
"--but besides miracles there are mysteries, so please be careful."774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQyNT8qzkN
She hands him an envelope with his name on the back, and a wax seal on the front.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwbTahLh4a
"I will take my leave now." She was about to exit, when he stopped her.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XtvIsIwH7
"Wait, the pay check? Are you not going to ask for it?" He asked.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluo3tIikfV
"It must be paid directly to the boss or the boss's secretary. His office is at Hearth Street." She said and left.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcX4dcyRRwI
Alone in the back room, he removes the wax seal and takes a letter out of the envelope.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQCcOQbiI9
To Finn Kingsley:774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSynxrNKkr
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.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNIi6hyZv0
More about myths later. First, as a welcoming gift, 3 of the 10 mysteries of this town:774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8gyUGNC0B
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.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXjgluKPwH
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.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bQcD09ZYI
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.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQayNgPE3M
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.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSdyWvSJ8x
Go to my office at Hearth Street if you’re gonna pay for the movers (required).774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiXigASMDl
I do not suggest learning the other seven mysteries, but go ahead at your own risk.
Signed,
Boss Grayson774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkkg46woCE
Finn folded the letter and put it I the envelope the moment someone knocked at the door.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyf04HoOGFq
“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.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmX2bSW3e2
“Oh, coming.” He replied.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTU13JXH7yd
The ten mysteries and the town of Olive. It makes him thirst for knowledge, and his curiosity wishes to be fulfilled.774Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkyrgZKEM0
“Do you have a town library?” Finn asked.
