Erika Lawrence is a young girl with a knack for swimming underwater without coming up for air for a consecutive amount of time; for her it's normal, to others, not so much. Though after taking one last swim in her high schools swimming pool while waiting for her best friend, she notice's something odd about her right eye, in the far bottom right corner of the iris she sees something off; there with the mix of lavender is a pigment of red that shouldn't be there. At first she shrugs it off, even though she's still concerned about it, but then on the day after her eighteenth birthday something happens. Strange visions appear in her mind throughout the nights of when she is asleep, alongside with the need for water, blood, the consumption of flesh and a supressed memory of her mother. All the while the red in her eye begins to grow...
Worried for her own sanity, she goes to her grandparents for guidance, asking them for some kind of answer to be given, if she truly had become something frightful, and what they tell her shocks her, the birthplace of her mother.
Wanting to know more about her mother's supposedly secret past Erika and her friend Alison Jones; head there in search for the truth, only to find that some things are best left to be forgotten...

#1 IN MERFOLK 7/4/25 ♡ Elowyn has always been drawn to the sea. The waves call to her in ways she cannot explain, their rhythm echoing in her veins. Raised by her father after her mother's mysterious disappearance, Elowyn's life has been defined by unanswered questions-about the ocean, her mother's love for it, and the strange silence surrounding her father's past. On her seventeenth birthday, everything changes. Her father vanishes without a trace, leaving behind only a shimmering blue pendant that seems to pulse with the ocean's power. Thrust into the care of distant relatives on the fog-covered island of Innisfair, Elowyn feels the ocean's pull stronger than ever. A year later one fateful night, following that call, she steps into the waves-and discovers a hidden kingdom beneath the sea. There, Elowyn meets Aetherion Wavecrest, a mysterious and handsome figure. She soon gets swept into the kingdom and learns of its curse trapping the kingdom in eternal conflict. Could Elowyn be the one to break the endless curse? But to do so, she must embrace her magical heritage, confront the powerful curse cast by a jealous Abyssal King, and face the secrets surrounding her mother's disappearance. As Elowyn learns to wield her newfound powers, she finds herself torn between fear and duty. But when the Abyssal King threatens everything she holds dear, Elowyn must decide: will she face her destiny, or let the ocean swallow it whole?
