Sponge needs to harness his powers, Bankfoot needs to rebuild his home, and Furytail needs to tell Zaletooth's legacy. Each, with their own reasons for chasing these gems, find themselves patching old wounds from the war. Three cursed merfolk, willing to cross into the soul worlds, know that they too shall perish without the presence of gems. Within the circles of their troubles, the three find themselves stuck with the choice of dying, or saving their people, and the choice is all theirs. There is something out there calling them, and when they find it, they'll return with their species' lifeblood; Ersboric gemstones. Fins Above: HOPE is an intermission of 24 chapters, which takes place between REUNION and FLIGHT. HOPE tells the lead up to the events of FLIGHT, and explores old parts of previous installments. Sponge, Furytail, and Bankfoot, the three cursed merfolk in a new prophecy realize that they have the power to aid their people, and when confronted with the grim reality that they will die without these gemstones, the three team up to venture into the planes of existence to find them.

A world where merfolk are intelligent creatures is a world where the oceans are cleaner. These merfolk, separated by their subspecies, live beside humanity as conscious beings. It is inevitable that the two groups will spawn a thousand year hatred, and under the sea, the merfolk are beginning to pray to their ancestors that these killings will subside. A stray siren named Loch finds himself stuck in between the two worlds of human history and merfolk joy, and he will be forced to choose which part of life consumes him the most. But when a prophecy calls for him to be hunted for his future crimes, Loch is casted out of his new home. One day they will catch him when he is slow, but first, Loch must be caught. Respect the fools who think they earned it, be keen and on your fins, and you shall be the damned Winter itself. SHARDS of GEMSTONES is a free of purchase prequel to the FINS ABOVE series. It follows Loch, a conger eel, and his own goal of climbing the ranks to be the Coral Shoal kingpin, but when a seer announces that he would commit atrocities in his leadership, he is chased from his position and led down a path of backtracking, paranoia, and murder.
