Mythomania: The Long Trip to Arctic Ocean is a political speculative fiction set in the deep waters of the North Atlantic and the Arctic seas, where melting ice redraws borders once thought eternal. Greenland emerges as the final strategic corridor of the oceans, a gateway controlling currents, resources, and future survival. For generations, whales and dolphins have governed these waters through multilateral balance, shared memory, and slow consensus-an order built on norms rather than force.
This system unravels when the sharks announce a unilateral claim over Greenland, invoking security, urgency, and inevitability. They argue that the whales' deliberative governance is incapable of deterring the approaching eastern powers: the Chinese Sturgeon, advancing through silent accumulation and long-term positioning, and the Russian Salmon, masters of pressure, return, and attrition. What begins as formal negotiations collapses into coercion, proxy confrontations, and finally open war. Sonar becomes surveillance, migration routes are weaponised, and the depths turn into contested zones of influence.
Through myth and confrontation, the story examines power projection, deterrence, and the dangerous belief that dominance can replace legitimacy in securing the future.
