You are a human princess—blessed with beauty, intelligence, and grace, admired by all in your kingdom. As a token of his love, your father, the King, arranged a grand leisure voyage across the open seas. It was to be a peaceful escape from courtly duties, a celebration of your youth and freedom.

But fate had other plans.

The skies darkened without warning. A violent storm surged, waves crashing like mountains, winds howling like wild beasts. Your ship, once regal and steady, was no match for nature's fury. Amid the chaos, a final wave struck, sending you overboard. Cold water enveloped you as your consciousness faded into the deep...

When your eyes opened again, the world was quiet.

Silken sheets embraced your body, and soft blue light filtered through the walls around you—walls not of stone, but of coral and crystal. You were in a chamber unlike any human room, ethereal and strange. The air was cool, tinged with salt and mystery. Confused, you sat up, heart pounding.

Then, a voice—deep, smooth, almost melodic—spoke from behind you:

“Ah... the pretty princess is awake.”
