Mermaids have been dismissed as mere myth, legend, and fantasy for centuries. Nevertheless, it's important to note that such tales are often rooted in truth. According to legend, merfolk originated from a gem that fell from the crown of God and into the ocean. This story was considered a myth until the discovery of the gem. The sea gave birth to six clans at the beginning of time - Mermaids, Sirens, Selkies, Merrows, Ceasgs, and deep-sea mermaids. Initially, there was peace and harmony between men and merfolk. However, the hearts of men became corrupted by greed and the desire for power, causing the mermaids to react in ways that led to hatred among all six clans. The High Queen Kalypso brokered a deal between the merfolk and humans, mandating that merfolk live in separate parts of the ocean and sea and only venture onto land when necessary. Each clan fell to their own devices, some finding solace in their new lives, others turning to dark deeds. Reina is a young mermaid from Colombia belonging to a clan in Lake Guatavita, or the City of Gold. They are warriors and ocean protectors who are committed to identifying and neutralizing threats against merfolk and those who violate the laws established by Kalypso. Feeling uncertain and lacking confidence, Reina seeks to discover her place in the world. Taking on a new and challenging task could be the solution. Reina is charged with retrieving a stolen artifact from the Lost City of Atlantis, which was taken by a Triton named Zale - the male counterpart of Sirens who are known for their brutality, attacking humans at sea and disregarding the laws established by Kalypso. During her expedition, she meets Morgan, a resentful merman seeking the same man. Despite their reluctance, they are compelled to collaborate, leading to a startling discovery that questions their loyalty to High Queen Kalypso. This revelation may either strengthen their bond with their clans and each other or drive them apart.

"Careful human." The...thing said in a concerned voice. "W-What are you, what d-do you want?" I shakily asked him, curling up my body protecting myself. "Shh human don't be afraid. You are my mate." What is a mate? Why did he bring me here? Who is he? Why is he looking at me like that? From the distance I put between us I could admire him more, and his tail. He really is beautiful. It was a deep teal green colour with gold and blue blended in with it that reminded me of his eyes. He was holding himself up with his arms looking at me curiously, head slightly bent to the side and all. "What are you, what do you want?" I asked slowly, my heartbeat had almost reduced to normal again but I was feeling a strange pull towards the creature in front of me. "I am a Merman and you are my mate." His voice was deep and sounded like music the way he spoke. But mate? "Mate?" I asked hoping to find out the way in which he directed this word. "My love," he paused looking into my hazel eyes. "Come closer human you are beautiful...and mine."
