In a breathtaking underwater kingdom, a forbidden love blooms amidst the chaos of an age-old rivalry. Maren, a beautiful mermaid princess with a heart as boundless as the ocean, finds herself drawn to Levi, a brave young prince of the Octman clan. But their love is tested as their clans, sworn enemies for centuries, wage a relentless war that threatens not only their own existence but also the fragile peace of the surface world.

Unbeknownst to the oblivious humans, who believe mermaids and octomaidens to be creatures of mere folklore, the ongoing war beneath the waves has manifested in unexplainable natural catastrophes. Hurricanes whip across coastlines with unparalleled force, and towering tsunamis crash upon unsuspecting cities. The hidden truth is that these apocalyptic events are caused by the immense powers wielded by the mermaids and octomaids, their fury unleashed in a desperate struggle to protect their respective territories.

But when Maren and Levi accidentally discover a long-forgotten prophecy buried deep within the ancient texts, they learn that their forbidden love holds the key to restoring balance and mending the fragile bridge between their peoples. If they can overcome their ingrained prejudices and join forces, their union could bring an end to the catastrophic storms wreaking havoc on the surface world.

Guided by their shared love for each other and the desire for peace, Maren and Levi secretly meet, braving the dangerous depths and defying their clans' expectations. 

As their love blossoms against the odds, Maren and Levi inspire hope in their divided kingdoms. With every stolen moment and secret plan, they forge a bond that transcends the hatred and conflict of generations past. Will they be able to reconcile their feuding clans and bring an end to the catastrophic storms raging above? Or will their love be crushed under the weight of history and the insurmountable odds stacked against them?

Yet, the ripples of the changing world beyond seep in with increasing force, bleaching color and darkening minds--but not Dea Rhodoreef's mind. That day, all Dea could think about was swimming her sea cow to the seagrass meadows. Who said life's easy for a high school teen? Even more so when one is a pastel goth gamer mermaid trying to scrape by in a modest mobile home with a grumpy grandmother, who's always complaining about the "human infestation". Maybe the troubled city-state will embrace a new dawn when merpeople and humans co-exist--a future that Dea is determined to work hard for. Noble causes aside, just getting to see a notorious human is number one on her bucket list. Now, as if school, a part-time job and a looming political career aren't enough, a chonky sea cow has been following her for days. It's time to return him to the wild--not like she'd run into a human.
