Chapter 1: Cracks Beneath the Old Map
The wind carried the dry, dusty tang of Oklahoma earth, whistling through Ethan Coleman’s open window. It was autumn 2024, and the sky over Oklahoma City hung low and heavy, draped in a layer of washed-out gray. He gripped his phone, the screen displaying a yellowed digital scan of a document. His thumb swiped across the glass, leaving faint smudges of grease behind. Three weeks ago, when his father, Jack Coleman, tossed this "revised" file into the trunk of his car, the mixture of cheap tobacco and old turpentine clung to the back seat, refusing to fade. Ethan stared at the error flag in the bottom right corner of the screen. Where a smooth geological cross-section should have been, a jagged, distorted line intruded violently. It wasn’t the trace of natural collapse; it looked like someone had scrubbed away a piece of actual history with a crude, aggressive brushstroke.
The car pulled to a halt at the entrance of the old mine survey site. Rusty wire fence creaked in the wind, sounding like the moan of a dying man. Ethan jumped out of the vehicle, his boots crunching loudly against the gravel. He took a deep breath, pushing the urge to argue with his father back down into his throat, replacing it with cold, professional instinct. As an archaeological surveyor, he was used to talking to silent stones. But for the last three years, Jack Coleman had been filling those stones’ silences with lies.
Ethan Coleman: “Dad, you moved the coordinates for Sector Three by two meters. There’s a collapse record from 2003 down there. You can’t touch that.”
