Finn Kingsley makes his way into the vacant building carrying his bag, with trucks of furniture and men behind him. 715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHSCxzcoup
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.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQHfeomvY9
He unlocked the doors for the movers to move in the furniture, opens the blinds, and starts sweeping the floor.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwK1QsZBUXV
"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.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumsn26ck0B
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.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5EtI0xRNx
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.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aLtwq8Z28
"Mr. Kingsley, a word with you?" A voice behind him said.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbyBdGHrtv
It was the woman from the movers' company, who he believed has come to claim the pay check.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijfsgG5MuJ
"Of course." He responded.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tikSFhfik
They walked to the back room, and closed the door behind them.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcNe9R55qK
"What is it, miss?" He asked.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31zSvIQb2p
"The boss tells me to tell you to be mindful of yourself and your surroundings. Olive may be where miracles happen--"715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHXQBewxuL
He let out a little laugh, and was quickly shut down by her glare.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wtWEcZYvo
"--but besides miracles there are mysteries, so please be careful."715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcHQ6PRyd1
She hands him an envelope with his name on the back, and a wax seal on the front.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvb1CP4FJv
"I will take my leave now." She was about to exit, when he stopped her.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUf3gadajSu
"Wait, the pay check? Are you not going to ask for it?" He asked.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpCzIt9wMe
"It must be paid directly to the boss or the boss's secretary. His office is at Hearth Street." She said and left.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmwecvyYpk
Alone in the back room, he removes the wax seal and takes a letter out of the envelope.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqU3SGJ40C
To Finn Kingsley:715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8oVo3qfaj
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.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMW0wRARPfw
More about myths later. First, as a welcoming gift, 3 of the 10 mysteries of this town:715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tSdnXGfgn
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.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc6oEEpjqx
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.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcs4tHp8ni
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.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIutEjZWHU
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.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qRbuLJcCt
Go to my office at Hearth Street if you’re gonna pay for the movers (required).715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssjHHCmkyy
I do not suggest learning the other seven mysteries, but go ahead at your own risk.
Signed,
Boss Grayson715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTkf1r20EV
Finn folded the letter and put it I the envelope the moment someone knocked at the door.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfegAqXES0L
“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.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVWFBsC41D
“Oh, coming.” He replied.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsb2AbUEDY2
The ten mysteries and the town of Olive. It makes him thirst for knowledge, and his curiosity wishes to be fulfilled.715Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1LPAkgZWV
“Do you have a town library?” Finn asked.
