(of a person) having given up all hope; despairing.
Who is Nerissa Singh? On the outside, she's a happy, smiling, 23-year-old queen. Read that again: on the outside. Inside is a different story. She's fighting a one-sided battle that no-one outside her family knows about: PTSD. Instilled in her by the infamous murderer known as 'Tiger Shark', it haunts her day and night, creeping up on her when she least expects it. She already has that on her plate. Add that to ruling a kingdom alongside her husband? That's pushing it. It all comes to a screeching halt, however, when Nerissa learns that someone, whom she once trusted and loved deeply, is has taken up Tiger Shark's mantle. How will this affect her rule?  More importantly, how will this affect her? Read to find out.

TIDAL WAVES by RiaForcados
9 parts Ongoing
For five hundred years, war has raged between humans and mermaids, a conflict born from betrayal and fueled by blood. The sea belongs to the mermaids-stronger, faster, and deadly in their element. The land belongs to humans-resilient, relentless, and armed with cultivation techniques that rival mermaid strength. But the balance is shattered by the Abyssal Reapers-ruthless hunters who steal mermaid soul pearls to consume their power. In a world torn apart by war, sixteen-year-old Nerissa has spent her entire life hidden away in a cave, raised by a strict and distant father who warned her of the dangers beyond. She knows nothing of the war, nothing of the world outside-only that she must never leave. But when her father vanishes, leaving behind a cryptic letter and a map, she has no choice but to step beyond the only home she has ever known. Alone, vulnerable, and utterly unprepared, Nerissa stumbles into a world where survival is not guaranteed. Taken in by a respected military family, she finds herself in a place she does not belong-surrounded by warriors, secrets, and a growing unease that she is not like them. As she struggles to understand the world around her, a truth buried in her very blood begins to surface. She is not human. She is not safe. And in a world where her kind is hunted, her existence alone is a death sentence. With the Abyssal Reapers lurking in the shadows and a past she does not remember coming for her, Nerissa must uncover the truth-before it destroys her first.
