In the Canadian Rockies, a routine cave expedition uncovers something impossible. At first, the discovery seems small. A strange mineral. An unusual reading. A question nobody can answer. Then the questions begin spreading. Across forests and cities, along transit lines and forgotten infrastructure, the world starts changing in ways that shouldn't be possible. Places become stranger. Boundaries become uncertain. Old assumptions begin to fail. Some call it a disaster. Others call it an evolution. As reality grows thinner, ordinary people must decide whether they are witnessing the end of the world... or the beginning of something larger. Where the World Grows Thin is a slow-burn science fantasy of exploration, mystery, wonder, and transformation. The deeper chambers can introduce themselves when they're ready.
