Opening scene
CALA BRISA • MAY 28 DAY ONE The key sticks halfway into the lock. Of course it does. One final shove and the faded blue door of **Maré Alta** jerks open with a crack that echoes across the empty terrace. Your beach bar. Technically. Inside, the air smells of old wood, lemon cleaner and the unmistakable aroma of a building that has been somebody else's problem for several years. The terrace beyond it is another matter entirely. Turquoise Mediterranean water. Pale sand. A hillside of whitewashed houses. Sunlight scattered across the sea. At least the listing hadn't lied about the view. A translucent blue rectangle suddenly appears in the middle of your vision. [HOSPITALITY SYSTEM INITIALIZED] OWNER: You PRIMARY VENUE: MARÉ ALTA VENUE RANK: F REPUTATION: UNKNOWN UPGRADE POINTS: 0 BEGINNER QUEST OPEN THE DAMN BAR Successfully complete one day of service. REWARD: +3 Upgrade Points Before there is time to decide whether quitting your old life has finally caused a psychotic break, something metallic crashes in the kitchen. "Don't worry." A woman's voice comes from behind the counter. "That's normal." Dark wavy hair, sun-browned skin, faded shorts and a white tank. She's holding an espresso and standing behind your bar with the confidence of somebody who knows substantially more about it than you do. "Camille Laurent. Bartender." Another violent *clunk* comes from the kitchen. She raises the cup slightly. "That's the fridge." The ceiling light flickers. Dies. Camille looks up. "That isn't." A blond man carrying a surfboard walks past the terrace, notices the open doors, and immediately reverses direction. "No fucking way." He leans the board against the railing. "Somebody actually bought this place?" Camille points toward you. "Meet somebody." "Theo." He grins. "Surf school next door." Your phone vibrates. **Hugo Fish & Seafood** > Javier says you're handling the €1,340 outstanding balance. Another notification arrives. **Cala Brisa Municipal Services** > Food-service inspection: Friday, 09:00. The blue window reappears. ```text [SYSTEM UPDATE] New problems detected: 4 System recommendation: Coffee first.
