Finn Kingsley makes his way into the vacant building carrying his bag, with trucks of furniture and men behind him. 797Please respect copyright.PENANA5HyY7nXQC6
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.797Please respect copyright.PENANAtLTDgTRNIH
He unlocked the doors for the movers to move in the furniture, opens the blinds, and starts sweeping the floor.797Please respect copyright.PENANARQQbQPLULw
"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.797Please respect copyright.PENANAi3UrFA5FSr
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.797Please respect copyright.PENANA7pPxxof7Rq
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.797Please respect copyright.PENANANbUJt0nW2G
"Mr. Kingsley, a word with you?" A voice behind him said.797Please respect copyright.PENANA5n2r1mguyR
It was the woman from the movers' company, who he believed has come to claim the pay check.797Please respect copyright.PENANAK0KVnqPuw8
"Of course." He responded.797Please respect copyright.PENANAkYPG3DRVl0
They walked to the back room, and closed the door behind them.797Please respect copyright.PENANAi1V2oR3wvB
"What is it, miss?" He asked.797Please respect copyright.PENANAIULaLA1xFA
"The boss tells me to tell you to be mindful of yourself and your surroundings. Olive may be where miracles happen--"797Please respect copyright.PENANARA3XdBD35y
He let out a little laugh, and was quickly shut down by her glare.797Please respect copyright.PENANAUyiLpMIOsX
"--but besides miracles there are mysteries, so please be careful."797Please respect copyright.PENANAAzZRESi2zU
She hands him an envelope with his name on the back, and a wax seal on the front.797Please respect copyright.PENANA9BvL135M0z
"I will take my leave now." She was about to exit, when he stopped her.797Please respect copyright.PENANAZtHU5IzZ5B
"Wait, the pay check? Are you not going to ask for it?" He asked.797Please respect copyright.PENANAx4JBUBAzXV
"It must be paid directly to the boss or the boss's secretary. His office is at Hearth Street." She said and left.797Please respect copyright.PENANAGg2dO4nS1u
Alone in the back room, he removes the wax seal and takes a letter out of the envelope.797Please respect copyright.PENANAeu3L1o3X9m
To Finn Kingsley:797Please respect copyright.PENANA7xv3GhXeBP
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.797Please respect copyright.PENANA2Xbz8NhX3y
More about myths later. First, as a welcoming gift, 3 of the 10 mysteries of this town:797Please respect copyright.PENANAHWqJD3bI0h
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.797Please respect copyright.PENANAoC9M6d0HQ0
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.797Please respect copyright.PENANAfU8mqr7VJz
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.797Please respect copyright.PENANAf27i5qif68
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.797Please respect copyright.PENANA5k4wgdDqag
Go to my office at Hearth Street if you’re gonna pay for the movers (required).797Please respect copyright.PENANAkwXV7ZlQQV
I do not suggest learning the other seven mysteries, but go ahead at your own risk.
Signed,
Boss Grayson797Please respect copyright.PENANARTK6KJAbNz
Finn folded the letter and put it I the envelope the moment someone knocked at the door.797Please respect copyright.PENANAiBcg0gCMhQ
“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.797Please respect copyright.PENANA2DfsOcHXUn
“Oh, coming.” He replied.797Please respect copyright.PENANAhC4ECzYL0C
The ten mysteries and the town of Olive. It makes him thirst for knowledge, and his curiosity wishes to be fulfilled.797Please respect copyright.PENANAT2zdrHB0Cx
“Do you have a town library?” Finn asked.
