PureJewel

In the enchanted underwater City of Glass, what will you sacrifice for immortality? Love, memories, freedom? Will you take freedom from others to win your heart's desire? Dive into a world of mermaids, mermen, and other merfolk, where every character has secrets, and nothing is what it seems!
The whales have granted the merfolk eternal life, and asked you for so little in return. Defense against the giant squid. Secrecy from humans. But when a rogue mermaid tries to destroy the gift of immortality, ancient secrets rise from the depths, and the delicate balance of society rests in your hands.

As you, Tamru, and Flynn navigate the crystalline caves back to Tephra's place, Tamru slows to a halt and unhooks himself from your arm. "Well," he says, "I think I'll leave the Tephra stuff to you. I need to go get ready anyway." He smiles. "I'll see you later at the party, though. Don't worry about picking me up. I'll find my own way there. I could use some extra time to unwind after dealing with…all that craziness from earlier."


Flynn grins and gestures at the hole in the crystal passageway. "Well, here I am," he says. "Hope Tephra's not too—"


At that moment, Tephra pokes her head out through the opening and grins at Flynn. "Oh, fantastic!" she says. "You're back! I hope you had a good time. I'm sorry, but we need to rush off, to make sure everything's absolutely clear for today. I'll see you at the ceremony, right, Kavitha?"


You try your best to see Flynn off with your own convincing grin, but the truth is that you don't know if he and Tephra will work out. You hope that whatever ends up happening, Flynn turns out happy. At least he'll probably have a good time at the party. It's always helpful when everyone's celebrating and having a good time together.


Well, it's probably time you were heading out to the Celebration of Eternity yourself.
