“Wait, but you’re.. a mermaid.” ────୨ৎ──── Beneath the ocean lies a hidden world of mermaids and mermen ruled by strict ranks, ancient powers, and deep-sea kingdoms. They call those above the surface dry-borns—fragile outsiders who don’t belong in their depths. When a cliffside dare goes wrong, a dry-born falls into the ocean and into waters far beyond her understanding.

As surface and sea collide, the ocean reveals it never forgets what enters its depths. 𓇼 ⋆.˚ 𓆉 𓆝 𓆡⋆.˚ 𓇼
