Antarctica is the most forbidding land on the face of the Earth; always locked in ice and often cloaked in darkness and ravaged by howling blizzards the likes of which are found nowhere else. The least explored and understood landmass on our planet, it is the source of much speculation about what lies beneath the thick glacial ice sheets. Despite its ancient geological ice sheath many speculate that it has, at some point in its past, seen human habitation. Looking for resources the global business Pantheon has made a detailed scan of the coastline beneath the ice. This scan returned an unusual collection of rock formations that look suspiciously regular and thus artificially created. Armed with this knowledge the enigmatic William "Wild Bill" Ellis, master of Pantheon, seizes the opportunity to place his stamp on history and organizes an investigation into the anomaly. The technology is there; what is far more difficult to acquire is the correct mix of expert personnel to successfully carry out the project. Risking the fate of Pantheon itself Pantheon brings Phillip Wharton, a young archaeology student yet untried as a leader, to direct the project and its wildly eclectic mix of people and technologies. What they discover is secrets locked under the ice that have lain for over twelve million years. These secrets will force consideration of a new beginning of the origin of our species. These secrets will bring greed for knowledge into conflict with greed for wealth in order to control the secrets uncovered as the magnitude of these discoveries could save or topple our world. Novitatis Initium is literally "New Beginning" in Latin is an amalgamation of scientific discovery, daring, and adventure is a realistically imagined and disturbingly real journey into an unknown past that shows our world in the cold light of a continue Dark Age.
