To save what they love, each must decide what they're willing to give up.
Flora
Reeling from her loss, she can't imagine claiming the crown. But when a rising enemy sets her sights on Flora, she's forced to stand and fight before everything she loves is lost. In the stillness left behind, Neacal becomes the steady presence she never expected, and a once‑rejected bond begins to grow.
Laina
Acceptance comes slowly as she confronts the siren blood she never wanted and a childhood built on lies. With Kellen beside her, she begins to heal, but returning home shatters the fragile peace she's fought for. The secrets waiting for her cut deeper than she ever imagined, and the sea itself stirs at her presence. The merfolk are owed a siren, and their queen is ready to claim her.
