The evening sky had faded into deep blue by the time your car rolled down the quiet road toward the small town of Storybrooke.
Thick pine trees lined both sides of the road, their branches swaying gently in the cool night air. The farther you drove, the quieter everything seemed to become — almost as if the town was tucked away from the rest of the world.
An old wooden sign appeared through the darkness.
Welcome to Storybrooke, Maine.
For a moment, everything felt still.
Then the engine gave a small cough.
You glanced down at the dashboard.
"...Come on," you muttered, lightly tapping the steering wheel.
The car pushed forward a little farther, but the warning lights flickered. The engine sputtered again before finally giving out completely.
The vehicle coasted to a stop near the edge of town, rain beginning to fall in soft drops against the windshield.
Outside, a warm glow caught your attention.
A small diner sat nearby, its neon sign shining through the rain.
Granny's Diner.
Inside, the lights painted the windows with a welcoming glow. The sounds of quiet conversations, clinking dishes, and old music from a jukebox drifted into the night.
For a small town, it seemed surprisingly alive.
But something about Storybrooke felt different.
Not strange exactly.
Just... like there was more to it than what appeared on the surface.
And somewhere beyond the quiet streets, Storybrooke carried on with its own secrets, its own stories, and its own people.
For now, you were simply someone new arriving in town.
