Origin

The train departs, as some nearby boom gates raise, revealing a set of stairs that looks to lead to an area higher up. Looking around, you can spot a few buildings in the distance and some nearby trees, but not much else asides from that. It looks like a fairly beautiful town, but it’s very empty. You all notice that the front door of one of the faroff buildings opens, letting out yellow light and three people. Two of them run out the door frantically, while the last person calmly walks out the building and shuts the door. The two people in front start running towards yourselves, but one of them trips. The other person starts dragging them as they continue to move towards you. Once they get closer, you can somewhat make out their appearance. The person that was dragging the one that tripped is an ordinary boy, with messy black hair, sleepy eyes, a red short sleeve buttoned shirt, black dress pants, and red sneakers. In his hair, you can distinguish a rainbow colored feather, with blue starting at the quill and ending with red at the end. Getting up from the ground, you can now tell that the person being dragged was a yellow Shih Tzu, with a green vest and a blue skirt. She also has bells tying up her hair with a red ribbon, jingling as she moves. Walking behind them is a raccoon with a green sweater vest and a yellow jacket.



“Hey, hello! You guys must be the new residents moving into Origin. Let’s see… Isabelle- Oh yeah, you tripped again. Sorry. But can I see my clipboard? Thanks...
Let’s see here… Going off your application forms, YOU must be, uh… Dr. CEO Mr. Senior. Von Mc Vitchesntwoer J.R., correct? Mind telling me if there’s a shorter nickname you go by?

And... YOU must be Mr. Tye Fontaine, correct? Well, you guys don’t look dangerous or explicit in any way, and the information provided matches exactly, so you’ll be fine living in Origin. We really appreciate you guys deciding to move into Origin. Well, all four of us in Origin… And speaking of us, my name’s Richard, and I guess I’m the Mayor of Origin. I hope we can become the best of friends, all of us.”

The Shih Tzu walks up and starts to introduce herself. “Hi! My name’s Isabelle. I’m the Mayor’s Secretary for Origin, and I run the Town Hall when he’s not around. I also organize a lot of the events we’re going to be doing here in Origin. They’ll be fun, I promise! Anyways, let’s all help make Origin a fun, happy place!”

The raccoon steps forward and introduces himself as well. “Ah, you’re the new residents moving in. Yes yes, I think you’ll enjoy the town of Origin. My name is Tom Nook, and I run Nook’s Homes here in Origin. On behalf of the chamber of commerce of Origin, I’m pleased to welcome you!”

“Okay, so that makes everyo- Agh, we forgot to get Digby… So you know, the only person living in Origin that you don’t know yet is Isabelle’s twin brother, Digby. He’s hard at work, making a bunch of phone calls and stuff over at their house though, so you guys will probably have to meet him at a later date. Otherwise, that’s everyone. Next on the list is… Maps! Here you go, guys.”

Richard pulls out two maps of his pockets and hands one each to you. It’s a simple fold up map of Origin.

“The map is super small when folded up, so it shouldn’t take up any space in your pockets, really. That map shows you all of Origin, as well as the area up these stairs nearby, which we call Main Street. Also, due to the nature of maps, it’ll constantly get updated as things in the town physically change. And… The last thing we need to do is get your houses built. Tom Nook here is a real estate owner, so talk with him about your homes. That seems to be everything. Oh, right. Dr. Whatever, I’m going to need a nickname, because your long name will confuse everyone. You’re okay though, Tye.”
