Finn Kingsley makes his way into the vacant building carrying his bag, with trucks of furniture and men behind him. 740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFtoZa8kP9
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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxB3Sg3zSZ
He unlocked the doors for the movers to move in the furniture, opens the blinds, and starts sweeping the floor.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmKJLnvOnG
"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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTG49zRVRT
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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LgamkYQic
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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9QUeXbNtK
"Mr. Kingsley, a word with you?" A voice behind him said.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTOMNjzt7Y
It was the woman from the movers' company, who he believed has come to claim the pay check.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YZWiNl7TY
"Of course." He responded.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡns0xZ1mnsx
They walked to the back room, and closed the door behind them.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoBEDIdxyQ
"What is it, miss?" He asked.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAx42470cbo
"The boss tells me to tell you to be mindful of yourself and your surroundings. Olive may be where miracles happen--"740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXPF6EpN3r
He let out a little laugh, and was quickly shut down by her glare.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5h1QCS4YgP
"--but besides miracles there are mysteries, so please be careful."740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1TJt0PC7a
She hands him an envelope with his name on the back, and a wax seal on the front.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwZZhEcuno
"I will take my leave now." She was about to exit, when he stopped her.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkclPQ8PB8E
"Wait, the pay check? Are you not going to ask for it?" He asked.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwSur2kgk4
"It must be paid directly to the boss or the boss's secretary. His office is at Hearth Street." She said and left.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvsXYdJGWB
Alone in the back room, he removes the wax seal and takes a letter out of the envelope.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeL9O3vU0rr
To Finn Kingsley:740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVarxbTCHrK
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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wlaI3nHBM
More about myths later. First, as a welcoming gift, 3 of the 10 mysteries of this town:740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi9NXMm9jh
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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡES6c2Up6HT
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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduQxcowVLY
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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpKBekGUq7
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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYL35g08YC
Go to my office at Hearth Street if you’re gonna pay for the movers (required).740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALkYKuw5Fd
I do not suggest learning the other seven mysteries, but go ahead at your own risk.
Signed,
Boss Grayson740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0ODu83q6c
Finn folded the letter and put it I the envelope the moment someone knocked at the door.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNLx35C496
“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.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5SC1I5teL
“Oh, coming.” He replied.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMi8yg0pbJe
The ten mysteries and the town of Olive. It makes him thirst for knowledge, and his curiosity wishes to be fulfilled.740Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXFJgUrn0l
“Do you have a town library?” Finn asked.
