Episode 1: Behind the Glass Veil
By J. W. Cavefish
Set in a world governed by AI systems, biotech cults, and corporate ambition, the story follows Graham Mercer, a weary investigator caught between two kinds of loss: one buried in the ground, and one stored in a glass dome.
When a strange phrase surfaces in the Archive-a digital necropolis where the dead are preserved as voices without bodies-Graham begins to unravel a mystery that stretches beyond science. As Graham digs deeper, he encounters biotech experiments gone wrong, whispers of a cult obsessed with shedding the human condition, and a missing girl whose transformation may hold the key to everything. But the deeper he goes, the more the world begins to fracture-between flesh and code, grief and ambition, memory and myth.

This is not a story of resurrection. It's a story of convergence. Dark, atmospheric, and emotionally layered, Behind the Glass Veil blends noir investigation, philosophical sci-fi, and biotech horror into a haunting meditation on identity, loss, and transformation.
