The sea holds many secrets.
Some are meant to remain buried.
Driven by the stories of his father, a young captain gathers six lost souls and sails beyond the reef in search of lands whispered about only in legend. Their goal is not treasure or conquest, but knowledge.
For a time, the voyage seems like nothing more than adventure.
Until they reach the island.
There, the crew discovers a cursed land where the living and the dead share the same shores, where spirits linger in haunted forests, and where the past refuses to stay buried. At the heart of it all stands a mysterious figure; known by some as Pandora, by others as Lilith. A haunting presence who rules the island of lost souls.
When the captain unknowingly takes something that belongs to her, a terrible curse is unleashed.
Separated from his own body and trapped between worlds, the captain becomes a ghostly witness to the unraveling of his crew. As whispers of war echo through the island and a shadowy oracle named Paris begins to weave a darker fate, the crew must confront forces far beyond their understanding.
To survive, they must face the truth of the island, the curse that binds them, and the haunting figure who waits in the shadows.
Because some lands are not meant to be found.
And some stories were never meant to be told.
The Tale Unknown: Book I is an illustrated verse saga of myth, adventure, and transformation; where pirates search for knowledge instead of gold, and the greatest battles are fought within the soul.
