Set sail for the edge of the world, where reality drowns in the depths of the unknown.
Aboard the steamship Kerberos, bound for the New World, a diverse group of European immigrants seeks a fresh start. Their hopes are fragile, bundled in suitcases and whispered dreams, but the Atlantic has its own plans. When they encounter the Prometheus, a ship thought to be lost at sea, the journey becomes an unraveling nightmare. What should have been a straightforward crossing transforms into an odyssey of dread and mystery, where the ocean’s horizon hides more than land—it hides truth itself.
At the heart of this voyage is Maura Franklin, a neurologist burdened by secrets she refuses to name. Her search for answers intertwines with the crew’s growing paranoia, each passenger’s past clawing its way into the present. As whispers of strange signals and impossible events spread, the walls of reality aboard Kerberos begin to warp. The sea, once an endless promise, becomes a prison of water and steel.
The Prometheus offers no survivors—only a young boy locked inside a cabinet, silent and unreadable. His presence deepens the ship’s descent into chaos, his mute gaze hinting at truths too dangerous to speak. As storms rage and compasses spin, loyalties fracture. The passengers’ trust in the captain, in each other, and even in themselves starts to crumble. What lies beneath is not just a physical threat, but something far more insidious: the fear that reality itself is a construct, and they are trapped within it.
Night after night, the visions come—memories that don’t belong, corridors that shift like living things, voices speaking from the walls. Patterns repeat. Doors open where none existed. The passengers realize they are caught in something beyond their comprehension, where time is no longer linear, and every decision is both inevitable and meaningless. The voyage’s destination is no longer America—it is the truth, and it may destroy them.
As Maura’s own past closes in, she must confront the reason she boarded the Kerberos in the first place. The boy, the ships, the endless sea—every thread connects to something she’s been running from her entire life. The price of understanding might be freedom, but it might also be annihilation. In the Kerberos, reality bends, and so does fate.
In 1899, the ocean is vast, but the walls are closing in. And sometimes, the greatest mystery is not what lies ahead on the horizon, but the dark waters of the mind—where all truths, no matter how deeply buried, will eventually rise.
