Description

When Thalassa's Children—the mer-like, genderless protectors of the ocean—experience the trapped and suffocating death of one of their own, a single member chooses to take action. Against the wishes of the collective mind.

But can a lone mer ever hope to convince the humans of what they have done to the ocean, in a language they will understand?

And will it be worth losing everything?

"Inventive, heartbreaking, and wholly original." — Kristine Kathryn Rush, Bestselling Author

"The story makes an interesting twist that highlights the dangers of limited understanding and self-referentiality...the author shows surprising subtlety, especially in the final third of the story." — Tangent Magazine
