[A story of redemption + an interstellar powerhouse + a soft, growing mermaid = a sweet bedtime treat. The first volume takes its time laying the groundwork, but the main plot picks up midway through the second volume and the pace becomes steadier.]
Billions of years in the future, the creatures of the land and the sea live apart, each leaving the other undisturbed.
Bound by a treaty made by their ancestors, their descendants cannot help wondering what life is like on the other side. A young general, forced into retirement by a mental-power crisis, returns to his private island.
One night, a mermaid curious about what humans look like secretly hides behind a reef, hoping to take one quick look before returning to the sea.
Neither realizes that this single glance will set their story in motion. As their relationship develops, the planet’s hidden secrets will gradually come to light.
Later, the little mermaid, lured ashore by the general, unexpectedly discovers an unknown force about him that keeps drawing her in.
P.S. You won’t regret picking this up. The pacing stays steady, and it only gets better as the story goes on!
Written for love, with the entire novel completed in advance.

Sea god Poseidon, please let us happen upon each other once more. Please bless Lu Nan. I would gladly give up everything I have, so long as it doesn’t hurt the people around me.

Perhaps I will sink into ruin alongside Morris. That is the resolve expected of an officer in our organization.
But putting you first is the resolve expected of Lu Nan.

The southern breeze knows my heart, and carries my dreams to the western isle.
