Zale Nereus grew up in the state of Florida. He was raised in a orphanage all his life. He asked the director of the orphanage who his parents were, but never got a response. All Zale had from his parents was a necklace. This necklace only had a blue orb with a alpha symbol on it.
Throughout Zale's life he was never good at school, but one subject appealed to him. Biology, but not any kind of biology, marine biology. At the young age of twelve Zale was swimming in shark infested waters to meet the beasts of the oceans. At the age of thirteen he set up a company to clean all the trash in the ocean.
Zale was a wealthy person after running businesses to clean the ocean, but he had no mortal desire for money. Zale enjoyed the feeling of water. Wherever their was a new waters to explore you would find him.
Zale pushed the human limit and explored 40% of the oceans water. He discovered species after species pushing mankind's science by leaps and bounds. Any animal Zale came in contact with would come on friendly terms with him. All these knew animals led to crazy people wanting to eat new and eccentric food, but Zale would have none of that. Zale made organizations one after another to stop people from hunting down these new creatures in country after country.
While most people wound send down others in submarines, or send drones to discover new life in the ocean. Zane pushed the human body and technology to make suits so he could dive down to depths unimaginable for humans, to meet creatures face to face.
All this was while he was only thirteen years old. Zale felt incomplete, he knew he was missing something. He knew something deep in the ocean was calling to him. At his fourteenth birthday he made a promise to himself, to find what was calling him deep down in the ocean, by his fifteenth birthday.
While Zane enjoyed exploring the ocean, sometimes there was nothing to do. He became a lover of anime. All the characters he enjoyed seeing where characters tied around water. He liked characters like Kisame, Zabuza, Orca Gang, and Jinbei.
About 6 months after his fourteenth birthday, Zale encountered a problem in his journey to explore the entire ocean. A drone he sent out to recover specimens he discovered while diving in the darkest depths, exploded on impact when colliding with a unknown force.
Zale wanted to go down and discover what the source of the impact could be and dived down to the Mariana Trench where the drone was last collecting specimens from. Down there he went to the last recorded signal of the drown and found no pieces or any show of sudden explosion or impact. The drone just vanished into thin air.
For the next 3 months the sudden vanish of a drone was a mystery to Zale. He had no clues as to what happened to it. Zale send down more drones to the Mariana Trench to see if he missed anything, or if the ocean was maybe even deeper than we imagined.
