The day Shen Chaosheng was exiled, the floating-island councilor said, "Let her go feed the fish in the deep sea."
Her oxygen ran out. The pressure surged. Darkness swallowed her like the belly of a monstrous beast. Everyone thought this "traitor" was as good as dead.
But they forgot one thing: she knew these depths better than anyone.
At death's door, she binds herself to the Deep-Sea Ecology Simulation System. Ocean trash turns into building material in her hands, and three coral seedlings light the first lamp on the seabed.
Glowtorch coral dispels the eternal night, lung coral produces oxygen, and foundation coral builds homes. A deep-sea graveyard everyone else avoids becomes her kingdom, unclaimed by anyone.
She scavenges, repairs tunnels, builds domes, and cultivates algae. She takes in abandoned deep divers and builds the first city, Chaosheng, by a hydrothermal vent.
When the floating-island alliance's warships descend in a show of force, ready to crush these "sea cockroaches"
They see a coral city-state shining in the darkness, and on its walls stands the woman they once dismissed as a pawn to be sacrificed.
The floating islands that once lorded it over everyone now come bearing fresh water and fuel, begging her to open the gates.
And the alliance officer who was supposed to take her life throws away his sword and holds out his hand.
"Shen Chaosheng, I'll stand guard over these depths with you."
But a single city has never been all she wanted.
The truth behind the rising sea level, the relics of the old world, and the pair of eyes watching her from the abyss...
In this game, she'll make the entire floating-island alliance kneel as they watch her ascend the throne.
