For nearly eighty years after 1914, Atlantis rested in quiet peace- until 1998, when blood stained its waters once again. A Vampire King, driven by relentless hunger, unleashed his wrath upon the city, seeking not just conquest-but its very heart. As the lives of the innocent slipped away, the King and Queen faced a choice that history had already written once before. Like their ancestor, King Kashekim Nedakh, they surrendered Atlantis to the ocean's depths. Yet this time, the Queen chose a path no ruler had dared. Rather than hiding the heart within stone and secrecy, she placed her trust in the kings who came before her-and in her own child. The crystal was sealed within them. Carried to the shore. Hidden beneath an ordinary life. A living vessel of a forgotten kingdom. This is her story.
