The train slows with a soft squeal of metal and a puff of steam. Through the window, sunlight glimmers over a tiny station surrounded by wildflowers and whispering trees. As the doors slide open, the scent of the sea drifts in, carrying the quiet rhythm of waves beyond the cliffs.
“Ah! There you are!” a cheerful voice calls out. Isabelle waves her paw enthusiastically, her bell shaped hair tie jingling as she bounces on her toes. Beside her stands Tom Nook, holding a clipboard and wearing his usual warm smile. “Welcome, Mayor bạn! We’ve been looking forward to your arrival!” Isabelle beams, her tail wagging.
Tom Nook adjusts his sweater vest, nodding thoughtfully. “The town’s been abuzz ever since word spread that a new mayor was coming. Mossy Cove may be small, but with your help, it’ll truly shine!” Behind them, the cicadas sing lazily in the afternoon light as the train whistles and pulls away leaving you standing at the edge of your new home, the promise of peaceful days ahead.
