So who is Mr. Gordon anyway?
Did the town exist because of Mr. Gordon or did Mr. Gordon exist because of the town? We may never know the answer to that. Very little is known of Mr. Gordon's past. People have always recognized him merely as "the Founder," a mild-mannered millionaire (well, gazillionaire), who some say was born in England, others say was born in Greece, and everyone agrees was a distant relative of the poet Lord Byron. He's a man who loves his solitude, loves his money and loves his pet gerbil Bear – these are the things that drive him (that and his squad of hand-picked chauffeurs). No one can remember when he arrived, no one can remember anyone who remembers before he arrived. He was merely there.*
