First chapter released! woo!

Also, just a note, I'm trying out a new writing style, so any constructive criticism is appreciated.

Another note, sorry if this chapter is odd, when I wrote this, I was tired and by brain was deep frieded.

/-+* Grian's POV *+-\



I gulped as I arrived at the front doors and looked up. So this is the place...


    It was a massive building, you could even call it a mansion. Actually, I think it is literally a mansion. It has big front gates, the garden looks very well taken care of, and I could even see a big treehouse in the backyard.
    The Hermits' Estate... At least that's what the building is named, and according to what I know, the people that live here are called the hermits, a group of friends that take care of the house and such. I honestly don't know how I went from moving to a new job, to moving into a new house that has more than 20 people who live in it.


    So the story is, I'm Grian, and I used to live in another city, and I used to have a friend group called the Evolutionists, and we all ran a company named EVO.
    I used to be the Owner of the company, but skip to the present, I left the company because I didn't think the job suited me anymore. So days ago, I gave up my ownership and told the others to handle it without me, and they understood. I'm a bit worried about what is going to happen to the company, but I'm sure they'll be fine.


    So then, I started looking for another job, and I was interested in an architecture job, but the nearest place is in another city pretty far away from where I lived.
    Well, before I left the company, I told my friend, Mumbo, that I was looking for a new job and interested in becoming an architect. And when I told him about the nearest building job in a different city, he told me that he and his group actually live in this city, and that if I'm interested, his group's place has a spare room. All he needed to do is ask for this guy, who I think is named X-I-Sumavo- XisumaVoid, if I could move in. I accepted the request, and now here I am. Of course, there's no turning back now.


    I inspected the building, and thought about it one more time if this was worth it or not. And then, I started sighing and walked steps closer to the front door. I then rang the doorbell.
    I waited a few seconds, and the door opened. The person that opened it was this guy wearing this helmet and in green armor.

"Oh, hello there. I assume you must be Grian?" He asked me politely.

"Yes," I replied, "and I assume you're XisumaVoid, the owner of the place?"


Xisuma nodded, "yep, that's me," he said. "you're Mumbo's friend that's moving in, right? Mumbo told us a lot about you, welcome to the family." he then stepped aside. "You may come inside, It's getting pretty late."

"Thank you." I replied shortly before walking in after him.


    As expected, the interior was as big as the exterior suggested. Taking one look at the inside of the place, the first impression you'd get is that it's chaotic.
    There's an armchair and some seats in the far corner of the room, and there was a spam of torches around, along with a lantern near the hallway. There was a carpet that was colored silver and yellow in the middle of the room, as well as some random cabinets in the sides of the room. And as I previously stated, the room was pretty massive.
