by Ethan Gray 776
Rodrick Roger is a pirate whose duty is simple: keep the ship’s log and record the journey. One morning, he wakes to silence. His crew is gone.Not dead. Not missing. Erased. The captain’s cabin stands completely empty, stripped so clean it feels as though no one had ever existed there at all. Worse still, Rodrick’s own logbook has forgotten everything he ever wrote inside it. Beyond the ship waits an endless black sky with no sun, no moon, and no stars. Because the stars are beneath the ocean instead. As isolation slowly devours his sanity, Rodrick discovers something impossible: certain doors no longer lead where they should. Sometimes they open onto a strange island at the edge of reality itself — a place filled with undead servants, grotesque anomalies, silent horrors, and beings who act absurdly harmless until their obsessions are disturbed. And there, Rodrick becomes someone else. A man named Ethan Gray. A name the world itself refuses to speak aloud. Now trapped between identities, cursed spaces, and a sea that should not exist, Rodrick must uncover the laws connecting the drifting ship, the island known as the Boundary, and the terrifying truth hidden behind Ethan Gray’s existence. Before he forgets who he was entirely.
