Being caught between two worlds is not easy. Dineo grew up an ordinary human aside from her weak lungs and breathing problems. Until one day when Neo’s world is turned upside down. Neo learns she has never been human at all, and she has a vital role to play that could save lives on both land and sea.  Neo takes us on a journey of self discovery, from being a sickly human to a powerful ocean queen.

Neo slowly moved towards the water to do as ordered. Her bare feet gradually parted with the ground as soon as she stood beneath the waterfall. A mirror reflection of her appeared, she was aware that she was looking at herself but the white patterns all over her upper body and the long purple fish tail made her doubt that it was truly her.

Blood and Water

The explosives that the Msifiti rebels placed all over the ocean succeeded in causing raging waves all over the planet's coastal areas. The humans were caught off guard while merpeople all over fought to keep their homes safe. 


"I'm here to talk about which kingdom the Msifiti will rule over once the battle is won," Vivi, the current leader of the Msifiti asked Kaima. Kaima and Kanta exchanged a look before looking at Vivi, whose entire upper body has scars; clearly he'd fought a lot in his lifetime. 


"The deal was that you help us and once we've succeeded in seizing all Kingdoms, we sit down and have a discussion," Kanta reminded Vivi of their deal. 


"Without us you wouldn't have gotten this far," Vivi reminded them. "So my rebels and I had our own discussion," he looked at Kanta. "We want to rule two of the seven kingdoms." 


"That's absurd!" Kaima raged. "I have more than seven growing queens here. How do you expect me to give you two kingdoms?"
