Dead Sea Scrolls
by Reginald Parks
The legendary scrolls of the Great Sea were one of the most sought after pieces of literature. The scrolls were said to tell the story of the boy who flew across the ocean with wings. These stories were passed on from century to century by one historian to another. However, the scrolls mysteriously vanished under the care of the monk Iago Macias while traveling on the Great Sea.1 After that, they were never seen again for hundreds of years, believed to have been lost at sea. Famous explorers, like Captain John Shark and Gerald Hines, searched for the scrolls.2 However, they failed to ever locate them.
The Great Sea scrolls seemed to be lost forever until Jonathan Reyes began his own quest to find them. In 1942, he and his team combed through the Great Sea.3 They used the knowledge of past historians to locate the area in which Macias was believed to have lost the scrolls. For months, the team searched until one of the divers spotted some strange debris on the sea floor.4 The pieces were bits of the scrolls that had been torn away by the sea. Reyes and his team carefully brought the remaining parts of the scrolls to the surface. There, they found that the scroll was almost perfectly preserved. With this discovery, the Great Sea scrolls were able to share their story after centuries of silence.
