The Passengers

Episodia is a fictional universe composed of episodes and characters organized in narrative threads. Its form is defined by its medium and is expected to mutate as it spreads. Hyperlinks connect the narrative to Wikipedia as the setting of a real world parallel universe. Key locations are geotagged on OpenStreetMap and photographs are published on Wikimedia Commons.
