The are three rules to follow when visiting the Mystic Café.
The first is never go alone. The second is never make a deal with anyone there because it always costs more than one thinks. The third and most important rule is to always leave the café before midnight or you'll be trapped there forever.
Emmeline Clarke is taking her first steps at being an adult after leaving the orphanage. She knows the rules for the café and does her best to follow them. The Mystic Cafe exists to test and push that resolve. With each visit Emmeline will learn that the Cafe always gets what it wants. It's just a matter of time.
Updates
This is in the planning stages. It really didn't work as is. Not sure when I can get back to this but more characters have popped up, so I'm sure it will be happening sooner or later.
I am thinking that this will be my next project after King of Monsters.
Characters are still popping up but I'm trusting the process.
