Synopsis
Faeries occupy the Skye. Mermaids inhabit the Sea. They had one rule: never cross territories.
"The Goddess has been sending warnings. I fear that another war is promised in the future. But it won't be like the first one, where thousands of faeries dropped dead at once, where we merged at a battlefield, filled with rage and killed each other with spears. This one will be different. There will be no battlefield, but we will die one by one, and kill each other, yes, discreetly, subtly, so that by the time it is over, we would still not have realized that a war had just taken place around us."
Tara is 118 years, the age where an Agni chooses her fate - they bear a mark that will allow them to shapeshift into any aquatic animal. But she wonders among the stars. And the stars are out of her reach.
The Seelie. The clan that holds the peace in the Skye after the civil war that killed thousands of Unseelie. Eashan is the son of Chief Drakin, but he's not the leader he's expected to be. Overshadowed by his all performing sister, Reina, he feels worthless in the Skye. When faeries start disappearing one by one, they fear that only two things could be the cause. But they don't know which one is worse.
This story is based on the memories of the author, Polkadot. I, her faithful assistant, patiently types it out for the world to read as she dictates it. What happens when Fae and Merfolk clash? I found out the hard way. Proceed with caution.
