The Shroud

A collection of short stories all pertaining to the Shroud and constructing the world around it.

This is an fictional thing that I thought up on a whim. The following is a short story that starts with a collection of emails sent to Cedric Collier, a world famous biologist, from Everett Park, a friend and former colleague of his.
This is the story that binds every story I have made and will make together, essentially. You'll see what I mean.

Following the 2035 event known as the Cataclysm, a bizarre super-structure manifests within the Southern Pacific, in an area largely devoid of any permanent sea life. Suspicious of the super-structure's nature and appearance immediately following the Cataclysm, the World's Superpowers immediately assembled a team of the brightest and most renowned scientists in the world to inspect and identify the "Pacific Anomaly".
