Location #1: Menewsha Central Station
Dear Diary Journal Book Stanley Alex,
I bought my ticket (with its signature star on front so you know it's legitimate) well before the Spirit of Calesco was even named! The ticket arrived on my doorstep in its classic wooden box filled with colored paper tissue before the name plate was engraved! And yet here we are! The bright and mild weather is perfect for starting a journey! Only a few steps keep me away from an adventure! It was easy enough finding the Central Station. It's large enough to see from miles away. I just have to enter the front right doors front left doors front middle doors and descend ascend the large, grand stairs to the large gateways where they are checking tickets selling some snacks to travelers. The doors to left must go to the trains bathrooms. Really, this station is so large and beautiful that it's difficult to navigate. They need more signs pointing to where I need to go… I guess I'll stop being distracted by you, journal, and ask a worker where exactly the departures are…
---------------------------
The train will soon start on its journey around the Island of Menewsha, where mystical creatures freely frolic along the varied and wondrous terrain. However, currently the train, my fellow passengers, and I are eagerly waiting within the new Menewsha Central Station. We can only watch the going-ons outside the train's windows, and some passengers are also furiously scribbling in their personal journals. The station has been on the works and, like the train, was just recently completed (and completed beautifully). No expense was spared in the creation of the fine engine and its home base. Columns of marble are gilded in gold and silver. Every surface shimmers on its first day of service. Even the main bell cast out of iron glimmers from the front of the station. The same treatment was given to the Spirit of Calesco. The sturdy engine is also quite beautifully decorated on the inside with rich hard wood and velvet seat cushions. Honestly, the shining ornaments, walls, and floors are a bit hypnotizing and the warm insides of the train and plush cushions are very tempting… I think I'll nap a bit till we depart the station.
With Much Love and Excitement,
Ayumi
