History remembers his voyage. It does not remember what he found.
In 1492, Christopher Columbus set sail into the unknown. The world knows of his discovery—yet it never knew the silence that followed. When his ships vanished without trace, Europe waited for gold, maps, and triumph. Instead, there was nothing.
Centuries later, in 1880, a violent storm uncovers a sealed chest off the coast of Spain. Inside are Columbus’s journals—salt-crusted, nearly destroyed, their ink glowing with an unnatural green. Scholars soon realize the voyage succeeded…but what he brought back was never meant to return.
From storm-lashed seas to the shadowed vaults beneath Madrid, The Silence of 1492 is a haunting tale of discovery and dread, of history rewritten in brine and whispers. Awe collides with terror as the world’s greatest silence begins to rise again.
The ocean does not forget. And it never forgives.
