The Cartographer of Possibilities

A cartographer created maps of places that never existed—cities built on kindness, islands shaped by courage, mountains carved from people’s best intentions.

Travelers who read these maps grew restless, feeling tugged toward roads they could never walk.

When the cartographer grew old, he revealed the secret:

Every map he drew was a reflection of a decision someone almost made.

Upon his death, his studio door locked itself forever. Some swear they still hear scratching inside—new possibilities being drawn for those still alive.
