Finn Kingsley makes his way into the vacant building carrying his bag, with trucks of furniture and men behind him. 585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4ZhR52cRD
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.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAIVncAbKM
He unlocked the doors for the movers to move in the furniture, opens the blinds, and starts sweeping the floor.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbtX6fLrdp
"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.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7UvRe9BAP
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.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuLjaZQRI6
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.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7QJUgpdSf
"Mr. Kingsley, a word with you?" A voice behind him said.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvg6tucRDB
It was the woman from the movers' company, who he believed has come to claim the pay check.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6IlSreqiu
"Of course." He responded.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZ1Pk8ToDb
They walked to the back room, and closed the door behind them.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZmHuNXQ8N
"What is it, miss?" He asked.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcg6UMMwt1y
"The boss tells me to tell you to be mindful of yourself and your surroundings. Olive may be where miracles happen--"585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfsHgJlanP
He let out a little laugh, and was quickly shut down by her glare.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAyWcRcZGn
"--but besides miracles there are mysteries, so please be careful."585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EuaT2E4DL
She hands him an envelope with his name on the back, and a wax seal on the front.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQwncaaCKM
"I will take my leave now." She was about to exit, when he stopped her.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoComoIenE
"Wait, the pay check? Are you not going to ask for it?" He asked.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdv7NSb7PM
"It must be paid directly to the boss or the boss's secretary. His office is at Hearth Street." She said and left.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxeE14QrI0
Alone in the back room, he removes the wax seal and takes a letter out of the envelope.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMhWTXBjHS
To Finn Kingsley:585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeemiwp1vEg
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.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeENGakJ87f
More about myths later. First, as a welcoming gift, 3 of the 10 mysteries of this town:585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdvMWlIeDR
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.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPX2FS1FckO
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.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVB4vstrTg
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.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKb6mcXEhvu
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.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcuAhyUccz
Go to my office at Hearth Street if you’re gonna pay for the movers (required).585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvZlxoXes9
I do not suggest learning the other seven mysteries, but go ahead at your own risk.
Signed,
Boss Grayson585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d2VCaaH5I
Finn folded the letter and put it I the envelope the moment someone knocked at the door.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUZgvkjqld
“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.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ljn9uUWE5
“Oh, coming.” He replied.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VdS7NtsN1
The ten mysteries and the town of Olive. It makes him thirst for knowledge, and his curiosity wishes to be fulfilled.585Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wn18gS1my
“Do you have a town library?” Finn asked.
