The Queen of the Sea, a novel, tells the tale of Amelia. Amelia is a mermaid who was raised in a country with a large fish population. Queen Isabella, who rules the Ava Empire, declared that Amelia and her mother should be slain since her mother is a housegirl employed by the Empire and her father, Aidan, is a royal descendant. To save the infant and make her the supreme monarch of the entire Shani Sea, the gods of the Shani Sea step in.
