Years later and the City became more than a haven for artists; the modern age paved the way for a more diverse community, and the industrial giants took over. In this dark times, the servants of arts were seemingly erased from the city, but what people don't know is that they were cornered in the last bastion of Literature.
Here the old souls have a seat and take a drink, savoring the epicurean liquid as they dream to be the next O. Henry, Shakespeare, among other literary titans.
