Introduction

A Northwest Passage.

Franklin's Lost Expedition.

Humans had always sought to chase the horizon. The view of a vast scrape of land- no matter how treacherous or hostile, people would find themselves making trails and warm sanctuaries to dot the untouched landscape. Many times, this would lead to tragedy. Lost explorers, or elements too severe. These expeditions would be lost to time, claimed by the land that they had so softly travelled. Franklin's Expedition, unfortunately, befell such a fate.

Humans also had a habit of seeking an answer. Franklin's expedition had disappeared, and many wanted to know why. Yet, try as they might, the northern atmosphere was simply too harsh and cold. It was years of travel, tending aboard a ship that could split the frosted ocean. Very few could muster the courage and the will to last through such a trip.

We'll follow the story of one Charles Francis Hall: an explorer, author, researcher, and the man who wished to answer this question, once and for all. 

We will go over his expeditions into this artic ocean- to learn the circumstances of the lengths he'd cross to accomplish this goal- and, notably, the mysterious circumstances of his death, that to this day just like the Franklin Expedition, remains unsolved.
