preface

Sea dwellers are humans who can live and breathe underwater. They have -with a little(non-consented)help from humans- built a civilisation of their own underwater. They called their males drealivsThey called their females orealeas Their girls were called Oreas And their boys rivsThis story is set in a universe that is somewhat similar to our own but there magic exists alongside magical (non-talking) creatures. The time is between the medieval age and the steam age. Villains They are everyone's enemy. We all hate them. Don't we? But what if I told you they weren't as bad as you may think. A story may exist without a particular hero (protagonist) ,but a story cannot exist without a good villain. The villain is always the main character. The main show. All a hero does is give the story a satisfying, not-tragic ending. But what's the fun in that? In fact, some heroes are actually villains in some people's lives. Villains are just heroes with a broken heart.

zenizensCordelia's home,lit by thousands of bioluminescents was lightly decorated for the once in a hundred years celebration of the cobalt moon. Cordelia was in the galley cutting up fish. Nherisa swam up to her sister. "Done?" "Yes" Cordelia said. Nherisa carried the tray of fish and placed it in the oven. She picked up a little cage from the ground beside the oven. From inside the cage, a frigil fish stared at her. She threw the cage into the darkness of a little space under the oven and closed it up. The scales of the frigil produced light and heat, filling the oven with heat. The water within a metre radius was extremely warm. Cordelia, unable to stand the heat, swam out into the hallway. The intense heat was too much for her. She stopped moving. She had seen something crying out to her from the corner of her eye. She turned her head. Right under her a rock carving of her mother's profile was a little necklace: a piece of rock with a s

Nherisa's heart was heavy, but tears, she dared not shed. She held Cordelia's shoulder, to comfort her. She had questions. Lots of questions. She wanted to ask but Cordelia looked like she wanted answers too. Nherisa followed Cordelia's gaze back to the vertical cities of Encrea. They were about half a mile away from Encrea. Nherisa turned Cordelia around. "Come." She said. "Let's find somewhere to stay for the night." "What happened?" Cordelia asked, eyes wide open, brain refusing to function. "I don't know." Nherisa told her. "But we'll find out together." Cordelia looked at Nherisa's face. She couldn't find the marvelled expression she was looking for. ++++×××××××××××××××××××××××××××++++ "Are we really going to ignore what just happened here?" Roland dusted the sand off his clothes. He stretches out his hand to Cornelia who was sitting on the sand beside him. Swashes reached her feet and a couple of feet away, their boat la

Hope for survival

On the eastern side of Fantasia, miles away from Encrea, which was on the western side, Cordelia and Nherisa took shelter in an underwater cave. They had nothing but the hard rock to sleep on. Nherisa floated in front of the cave. She looked up. Right above her was Fantasia, the world they kept hidden from. The world filled with everything she could need at the moment. She looked around at the resources she had to survive. Not much. There were a few fish around, but Cordelia would like things to remain that way. The only other food there could have was only available in Encrea. The only other source of livelihood was up in Fantasia. She swam up to the surface. She stuck her head out of the water. Her gills gave way for her lungs. She breathed in air for the first time in forever. As her face dried, her scales disappeared to reveal smooth human skin. She felt her face with her hands. She watched the scales on her hands clear out, too. What a

Missing

Remembering her sister, Nherisa sat up on Eric's bed. Yes, Eric's bed. The time was perfect. Eric was asleep on a mat across the room and the village must have been asleep. Careful not to make a sound, she made her way out of the bedroom. She walked down the stairs into the dining room and turned left into the kitchen where there were cabinets full of food. She took a basket and put as much food as it vould carry into it. She jumped out the window and walked all the way over to the shore where she immersed herself in water. Swimming in water again felt different from the way she remembered it. But it still, made her feel free again. Quite similar to the feeling of flying in the air alongside a total stranger. She imagined how happy Cordelia would be when she gave her the news. Life would be perfect if she continued this as a daily routine. Gain the trust of a human during the day and steal his food to feed her sister at night. The plan was foolproof. The day's work was done
