"We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch - we are going back from whence we came"
-John F. Kennedy
)* * * * *(
For as long as she can remember, the ocean has been Hannah's home. A connection to something she never had, it's always been her solace and refuge. And so she has lived there, peacefully with her father, for 19 years- and she wouldn't have it any other way.
But no fairy tale lasts forever- After a contentious, surprise visit from a mysterious uncle, Hannah's father is murdered, turning her world upside down and leaving her with more questions than answers.
With only her father's puzzling last words and an old map as a guide, she is begrudgingly forced to enlist the help of an arrogant, charismatic young man who claims to be pirate, and more importantly, that he can help her answer the questions and and reveal the secrets surrounding her father's tragic death.
Hannah must work quickly to uncover the truth -- before any hope of finding the it is swept away with the shifting tides.

A Sea Away [KilluGon]
A world without magic is a world without life. That's what my father told me before he disappeared. I grew up in a little shack, barely scraping by. It was just me and my dad, as my mom passed away before I even uttered my first word. Some days, we couldn't even manage to have a single meal. Life was tough, but amidst it all, I held onto hope. Hope for a brighter future, a future that my dad always spoke of. He filled my mind with tales of the Stormy Seas and Deserted Islands, painting a vivid picture of a world beyond our own. He made me believe that something extraordinary was waiting out there, just for us. He had been talking about this mysterious "something" since I was a baby, and he swore that he would sail the vast waters to find it, to change our lives forever. And so, the day finally came when he embarked on his life-changing journey, leaving behind a 14-year-old me. Little did I know that it would be the last time I would ever see him. It has been four long years, but deep down, I know he's still out there, somewhere, chasing that elusive dream. And now, after all this time, I'm ready to pick up where he left off.
