Animal Crossing: Origins

Chapter 1: Another Day

Alex had a busy job as the Mayor of New Leaf. Ever Since he came to this strange new town full of nothing but talking animals twenty years ago, life has been great for the Mayor of New Leaf.

But there was something that had been bothering him the moment he arrived there, but he just couldn't figure out what.

One day, Alex was sitting on a cliffside facing the beach. The sun was shining bright, the birds were chirping, and the bugs were buzzing.

"Hello Mr. Mayor!" Alex turned around to see his assistant and friend, Isabelle, who was a dog.
"Hello Ms. Isabelle. How are you today?"

"Wonderful. How was hanging with Sabel and Avery?"

"It was fun. Avery's gotten a lot better at fishing and Sabel's more confident."

"You know Sabel really likes you right?"

"Yeah I know."
"Sooo did anything happen between you two?" she winked at Alex. Isabelle knew that Alex liked Sabel back but he was too embarrassed to admit it.

"I have more important things to worry about." Alex replied as he and Isabelle spent the rest of the day on the Cliffside.

Although Alex remembers nothing about his life before New Leaf, He's grown to become like one of the animals and has a lot of great friends here.
Over time however, Alex realized that it can be a bit lonely being the human. Yes the animals of New leaf have human characteristics and such, but they're still animals. And everyone knew that but didn't seem to mind.

The next morning Alex awoke with the same loneliness that he had been feeling lately. But as always he shrugged it off. He got himself ready for another exciting day as Mayor. However everything changed when he opened his mailbox to find only one letter with no return addressee. Surely if Someone from new leaf sent him a letter they would have said it from them wouldn't they?

Alex opened the envelope and began to read the letter:

Dear Alex,

Have you ever stopped to consider why there are so few humans around while animals are on every block?

I know why there are very little Humans, and I can tell you. If you're really curious about all this, come find me at the location I've sent with this letter.

From your father,

Andrew

Alex had a hard time believing all this was real. If this really was from his father, how did he know where Alex lived? And why did he know about the lack of humans?

"Good morning Alex." Alex turned around to see Chester the panda smiling and greeting him. Alex smiled back even though it was hard. Chester seemed to notice this.

"What's wrong, rookie?" he asked Alex.

Alex explained what the he had supposedly found out and after he was done talking they went to Isabelle to tell her about it too.

"Are you sure you read it correctly?" she asked. "I thought you said your dad was… dead."

"I…thought he was…" Alex wasn't sure to feel about all of this. He felt sad unsure, but at the same time felt extremely curious. Just what did his father mean when he said I know why there are so few humans?

"Well, then, you guys are our leaders. So what should we do?" Chester asked. Alex and Isabelle looked at each other for a moment. Then Alex said "I'm going to go find him and hear what he has to say." Chester looked a little surprised but he understood, along with Isabelle. They both realized how important this was to Alex.

"One question though?' Alex said as he glanced back at the letter then looked up at them.

"Do you guys have any idea where Broken Mountain is?"
