Always Has Been: Chapter 1: Sinking of Oceandome: 2114 Environmental Disaster

In 2114, the innovative floating city Oceandome catastrophically sank into the Pacific Ocean, marking a significant environmental disaster. Home to over 80,000 residents, Oceandome was celebrated for its sustainable and advanced technological infrastructure. However, early investigations pointed to a tide-adaptive foundation malfunction and shifting ocean currents as contributing factors. Mayor Alani Kaiya and planners face scrutiny over structural integrity and emergency protocols as global rescue and recovery efforts continue.
