However, just when Blythe thinks she's found a place to belong, she learns her new family is just as unkind and unsympathetic. She falls into despair, resigning herself to a life where all she can do is gaze out onto the cerulean sea, dreaming of a better life...or so she thinks
What Blythe discovers in those tumultuous waters is much more fantastical than just a happy future. Amidst the unknown depths, Blythe encounters the enchanting Calypso; a mystical siren ensnared by the allure of humankind, just as the young woman herself is captivated by this ethereal creature of the sea.
