"Now my children, I know I told you all you can go anywhere the current goes, but I felt it was important to let you know. You must never go to the surface of the ocean, you must never go near human made objects, and if a human were to see you, run, hide, for if they catch you, they will kill you."
Okeanos has always lived by this rule, and in her world humans were something to fear, and the ocean is the only safe place.
But as a game with her siblings goes wrong, and she becomes entangled in a hidden war, she must decide if she should run away, following the rules she has obeyed her whole life. Or should she stay, fighting with her newly discovered friends, who aren't the types humans she's been taught to fear, or not even humans at all.
