Calithea Dimarzo never really did well when it came to people. She was shy and closed off, always having her head stuck in some book every second she could. The only human interaction she felt safe having was with her mother and sister, and her two best friends. Any other person was out of the question, especially considering her explosive violent anger whenever provoked. 

It's something she strangely couldn't control. Cali never thought of herself as a violent person, but all of that goes out the drain the second she even feels slightly irritated. Perhaps it had something to do with her deceased father and lack of memories of him, or maybe the overbearing salt water allergy her and her sister seem to share. 

But one sunny day her attraction to the water grows strong to the point where she couldn't deny it and she just had to take a dip. Poor Cali didn't expect a drastic twist in her life. From then on she'd come to realize her saltwater allergy wasn't diagnosed properly and regain bits of stolen memories she never knew she had. 

Like memories of her father and strange people with colorful hair and eyes, and fins...

When her little sister Lynn gets kidnapped by sirens to the bottom of the ocean, she is braced with the harsh truth that she is not as human as she thought she was. 

Cali knew she was never really normal, but being half fish was something she was definitely not expecting. 

Cali must take a journey under the sea with a forgotten childhood named Darian and her two best friends to find her sister and find out the truth about her life, her father, and an ocean on the brink of collapse.

He even promised her that he would help her find out her true identity. But then something weird happened that took her by surprise. She found out that she was no ordinary girl.

On her quest of discovering who she is, she met a guy who told her he knew about her parents. He seemed to know everything about her, and she was grateful to finally find out what was missing in her life. It didn't take long for Imogene to get close to this stranger. He pulled her in with his enchanting charm and looks and desperate for answers. She put her trust in him. However, deep down, doubts were lurking in Imogene's mind; doubts about her past and her supposed future. Even though this stranger gave her all the answers, could she really trust him? Was she really who he said she was? Finding out the truth will be the easy part, but will she figure it out soon enough to save her kingdom from the evil that wants to take it over?

"So who the heck am I?" I stared defiantly at Freya. "I am a normal person. I go to high school. I have parents. What am I ?" I asked. "That is what we need to find out. Do you trust us enough to stay with us? Help us? You are powerful. You are the only Palenthian, first time in centuries who has magic inside her. Powerful magic. More powerful than most Valen. I can feel it. Stay with us and help us slay monsters. Please." I gulped. "What will I get for that?" "Answers." Renna Evans was just another normal girl in another normal world, living with her normal (and filthy rich) parents and going to a normal high school. Basically her life was as normal as could be.

Will she be able to prove her worth in this new world? Or will her world collapse? And what about the handsome but mysterious Ryan Carter? What exactly is he hiding? Renna will discover a world of peace and war, love and hatred, trust and betrayal; all in her single quest for one thing. FREEDOM.

TW: this book may contain mentions of violence and of suicide. DISCLAIMER #1: I wrote this story when I was a teen and while some mental disorders are the focal point, they may not be accurate representations as I was far from being a psychologist. There are several things Lynn doesn't quite get about the world she lives in, which makes it harder for her to figure herself out. She is not your average teenager. She's young, intelligent, though something about her is off by now. Everyone is quick to misjudge and point fingers, everything and everyone is so corrupted that she's afraid she'll lose herself among a bunch of wandering, empty souls. Therapy can only help so much, depression is hard to die, and in Lynn's case it's caused solely by the fact she doesn't 'fit in'. She can't really find her place in the world. But there's something really special about her; Her dreams are haunted by a wonderful, mystical place. No one understands her, they think she's off her rocker, that she needs to cut her childish daydreams. But Lynn knows deep in her heart that place really exists, and she'll do anything to find it, with the help of some new found friends. There's only one thing she must do: Keep an open mind, it brings open hearts and open eyes. -- DISCLAIMER #2 This fanfiction is inspired to Mind Over Matter by Pvris and their lyrics in general. All you read here is fiction. every reference to real events or people is purely coincidental. I do not own the songs featured in the book.
