Dear Sir/Madam,
Greetings! I am Administrator Carolyn Wallace. If you are receiving this letter, you have been admitted to our facility and will be joining us here in the coming days. On the outside, Silver Gates Institute is simply a correctional facility for troubled men, women, and children. They are victims of strange circumstances and tragedy, and find refuge here. On the inside, however, it is a home to supernatural and magical beings, those who cannot (or will not) control their powers, and are shunned by the outside world as freaks or monsters.
I promise you, here in our home, you will not be treated as such. We are a family dedicated to helping our own, and we will assist you in alleviating whatever may trouble or ail you.
Many of the patients here see this place as a hospital, a place of healing.
A few see it as a haven, an escape from their infamy.
Others view it as a center of learning, a way to control their abilities and live normal lives.
What you make of your new home will be entirely up to you.
I will impress no illusions upon you. Regardless of your reasons for joining this family, our staff will accept you with open arms, but if you choose not to obey our rules and respect the virtues of the establishment, I ensure that our embrace will be merciless. In any case, I welcome you, and hope that you will make the best of your time here with us.
Yours faithfully,
Head Administrator
Silver Gates Insitute, Board of Operations
