Welcome to Thalassa, a world of a thousand wavetop kingdoms: scattered isles, floating cities, living titans, and an ocean ruled as much by pelagic magic as by politics.
Mako was built for motion: wave riding, high diving, pushing the edge of what a body can survive. He was fast, fearless, and headed for something bigger. Then one race showed him how the system really works. After a public disqualification, it was clear: NOAH, the New Oceanic Allied Hegemony, protects its own.
Five years later, Mako runs with the Sea Scepters, a small rogue crew aboard the Narwhal. They know the currents, the reefs, and the blind spots in NOAH's patrol routes. When a trader hints that NOAH is searching for powerful, unsanctioned pelagitech somewhere near their home waters, the crew follows the trail.
What they uncover isn't what anyone expected.
Hidden beneath Mount Ray Bay, the Sea Scepters uncover a submerged vault filled with advanced pelagitech unlike anything NOAH manufactures. But the gear pales beside the knowledge stored within.
An ancient book points toward something that could tip the balance of power across the wavetop kingdoms.
NOAH wants it.
The Sea Scepters have to find it first.
Because on Thalassa, the horizon doesn't belong to whoever claims it.
It belongs to whoever can reach it.
Perfect for fans of Skyward, Treasure Planet, and The Waterborn.
