The sea has been particularly tranquil these past few days...
On the day the Dragon Palace opens, myriad dragons converge, water vapor condenses, and it seems as if the wind above the entire sea has vanished. The vast ocean becomes so calm that not a single wave stirs, quiet as a mirror reflecting the sky above, truly making sea and sky indistinguishable.
But this tranquility doesn't calm the creatures. All marine life is gathering toward the location of the sea eyes in all directions, sensing clearly that if they cannot reach there soon, they might be abandoned by the sea. It is an instinct from their genes, a feeling all creatures share—that at the heart of the oceans, there is something that can determine their fate.
And this feeling applies to many, many people on the islands as well.
