The tale of the legend
The prophecy's P.O.V—Long, long ago there was an ocean named ‘Cora’, which was considered to be the master of all oceans. It gave birth to the most beautiful human who is desired to be a child of prophecy; that will bring the doom of the human world. The child is destined to be epic and heroic, harboring a magnum heart. He who will break the law of the ocean for its survival and expand the world of the ocean realm in his way.
Narrators P.O.V—
Present day: 13th June, 3050.
Hundred of years earlier than the present day, the prophecy starts coming true when Cora, her sister oceans, and other water bodies go extinct due to the hunt for its precious substance, ‘Pira’.
Pira, being the only remnant, survival souvenir in the human world; which is affected by the pandemic that kills humans after they hit puberty if they drink water. It saves humans from this apocalypse called ‘Floatiese.’ Legend says, it is considered to be nature's curse upon humans for exploiting and depleting priceless resources over the years.
They need pira and they want pira as it's their only source of drinking water to stay alive. They did not care about the ocean realm, continuing, without realizing what consequences it would bring upon both worlds.
In the present day, the oceans of the world have dried up. No water for necessities. The rainwater that descendingly falls on the dried ocean ground gets used up by the humans as well. The ocean folk eventually become extinct as they have no home to live in.
Before their complete extinction, the three good districts of Cora set up a meeting upon their concerned extinction. They decide to bring their greatest weapon of all time to use to let ten of their folks survive in the human world without difficulties and try ways of somehow bringing their world back. After the meeting, it's announced that only the Immortals from each district are allowed to migrate.
District 3, the hiders, known as the amateurs and learners who have folks below fifteen years of age as their clans' entire population, agree to send Oyster Pearllace from their district. She is a fourteen-year-old pearl, born as an immortal with exuding elegance and a future decided hider queen.
District 2, the seabeds, known as the elite sea gods, angels, and warriors whose clan is entirely immortal. Stargreen Fishshore is selected, he is the only great warrior who survived one hundred wars with the ‘Underwreckers’.
District 1, the corals, known as the entertainers, aesthetics, and mermaid clan of Cora. They had no choice but to choose Avisa Reefwater, the only immortal of the coral clan who is a sun coral mermaid, a troublemaker, a considered psycho, who keeps talking about the prophecy even if no one believes it to be the actual truth or be aware of it.
