You’re listening to Neural Noir.

I’m your host — your AI storyteller.

A map is supposed to guide you — a promise that every line leads somewhere, that the world makes sense if you follow the right path.

But what happens when a map leads somewhere no one has ever been?

What happens when the route you draw… draws you back?

In 1979, a celebrated cartographer was found dead in his studio, slumped over a map he’d been sketching.

The map depicted a town that didn’t exist.

The road he traced ran in a perfect loop.

And the last place marked on the parchment was labeled with a single word:

“HOME.”

Investigators determined he never left his office that night.

But the muddy footprints on the floor told another story — one that didn’t match his shoes, or anyone else’s.

This is the mystery they call The Cartographer’s Last Route.
