1. Greyston Municipality | Discover Series E1

Hello everyone! And welcome to the Discover Series!
In this series of updates, we are going to follow the lives of a bunch of ordinary Veratlanteans and see where it leads us.
I get to narrate it, but we're still going to listen to what's going on from the characters themselves! Who knows what these guys will stumble upon... and where...


Our story begins somewhere the middle of nowhere. Meet, Tim, 20, Business Student, currently working for his uncle at an investment firm, and Greg, 22... dropped out of Motor Mechanics last semester. Currently a pizza delivery guy. These two have been friends since long before High School. Tim drives the red van.
Greg: And why are we here again? We've been driving forever now mate!
Tim: Just chill, we are almost there.
Greg: And why is it your rotten rich uncle lives... nowhere?

Tim: Oh don't you dare call this place nowhere in front of him.
Greg: Just saying...
Tim: Do you want to make some money?
Greg: Oh yes. And it's even better that we get to travel for free...

Tim: Looks like this is it. Welcome to Keetem.
Greg: Is that seriously what this place is called?
Tim: Let me do the talking when we meet him, ok?
Greg: Do they even speak English here?
Tim: Of course they do.
I have to agree, this is the middle of nowhere. Very typical for this region, though.

A 50-something, rather short white man waves to them from the window and rushed to open the door, greeting the boys as they park and come inside.
Tim: Uncle Gordon!
Uncle Gordon: Hello, hello, please, come inside.
Tim: So what's the plan?
Uncle Gordon: Ah yes, well, I need you to go all the way to Dalston to meet a very special client. We are talking a really big and heavy fish here. You must deliver this envelope, too. This can potentially be a million-pounds deal sons.
Tim & Greg: Millions?!
Uncle Gordon: Ah yes, yes. My client is very well connected. In the envelope are all the instructions for this deal. I must also ask you to keep it all secret.
Tim: You show up with a million-pounds worth trade and tell me to keep this a secret and doesn't even tell me if it's a him or a her we are dealing with. Come on, you've got to tell us a little more about all this. Plus, are we only supposed to hand The Client the envelope? Why not just mail it?
Uncle Gordon: There's some Straight Stuff¹ involved, son. I need you to trust me on this. You'll receive further instructions along the way. Anyway, you must be tired from driving all the way from Amerion. You could stop by Greyston and buy some supplies...or actually, Greyston has a HSRS station. You could park your car there and go by train.
Tim: I think we'll need the car when we get to Dalston... But yeah... let's go, Greg.
Uncle Gordon: See you soon!

And so the boys drive a bit back to a not-so-small town they saw along the A20. Greyston.

Greg: Wow this whole thing is a bit weird... I hope all of this is, you know, legal...
Tim: Relax man. I say we go for some food, then rest a bit and hit the road early at night.

Greg: Sounds alright to me. I'm so hungry!
Tim: Dude, you're always hungry. Just accept it.
Greg: Well turn right, and you're the one who gave the idea...

There it finally is!

After getting something to eat and parking for a short rest, they took to the road again. I know we haven't really explored the town, but, all this time we have been within Greyston's municipal territory. Keetem is but a borough, 2 KM away from the town center. Yes, the AF is metric... like the rest of the world. Expect Celsius!

It was night when they woke up from their nap, but the lights here aren't all that amazing.

Greg: How far away is it again?
Tim: It's not even in this state, so at least another 2 hours until the state border...
Greg: Ah, here we go. Good night man!

???: Yes, I'm right behind them.
Well, I don't know what to say about that.
I guess we'll find out soon!
Thanks for Viewing!
