Finn Kingsley makes his way into the vacant building carrying his bag, with trucks of furniture and men behind him. 675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4o9E4Pkwf
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.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQNYsK13Nr
He unlocked the doors for the movers to move in the furniture, opens the blinds, and starts sweeping the floor.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7kRK2iRoT
"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.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN24F8Tmrn5
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.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQYUKmmTc6
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.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkiI4iVw1N
"Mr. Kingsley, a word with you?" A voice behind him said.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4LlyIPtXS
It was the woman from the movers' company, who he believed has come to claim the pay check.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysTJAJWqeP
"Of course." He responded.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAFeEGYHyG
They walked to the back room, and closed the door behind them.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi02eiGYst
"What is it, miss?" He asked.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RIjqzTk4W
"The boss tells me to tell you to be mindful of yourself and your surroundings. Olive may be where miracles happen--"675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpioUUu0Niv
He let out a little laugh, and was quickly shut down by her glare.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLA6gBlEss
"--but besides miracles there are mysteries, so please be careful."675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KuIFu31Eq
She hands him an envelope with his name on the back, and a wax seal on the front.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGMxp9AKkO
"I will take my leave now." She was about to exit, when he stopped her.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGaV1ye7z8
"Wait, the pay check? Are you not going to ask for it?" He asked.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvDMXCBf5s
"It must be paid directly to the boss or the boss's secretary. His office is at Hearth Street." She said and left.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFpomM7N6Q
Alone in the back room, he removes the wax seal and takes a letter out of the envelope.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWI4yDCdBj
To Finn Kingsley:675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VtDNGSeK2
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.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7mbQB5bLF
More about myths later. First, as a welcoming gift, 3 of the 10 mysteries of this town:675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqtHB89bpx
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.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8yGT1H6Pj
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.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MFJYX9W3h
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.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXM0pBg4YnF
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.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2Gam5QPkv
Go to my office at Hearth Street if you’re gonna pay for the movers (required).675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8skQovcorh
I do not suggest learning the other seven mysteries, but go ahead at your own risk.
Signed,
Boss Grayson675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0L03cTiwV4
Finn folded the letter and put it I the envelope the moment someone knocked at the door.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvOVKdct8g
“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.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZzWahDLuG
“Oh, coming.” He replied.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoP9IfLYIR
The ten mysteries and the town of Olive. It makes him thirst for knowledge, and his curiosity wishes to be fulfilled.675Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzC5TTH1kL
“Do you have a town library?” Finn asked.
