Racheal however, was mesmerized by the beauty of the underwater world. A lush canopy of kelp and seaweed covered most of the ocean floor, creating a beautiful backdrop to the kingdom's majestic castle that stood tall and regal amidst the sea life.
Everything about their world acted as a reminder of the place she came from. Everything was almost the same but never the same.
