Changing Waters: Jiol: Jiol

What rests deep in the ocean? Mermaids? Monsters? Magic? All that and more.Far below where any human can survive, there is a kingdom called Jiol. Kostas is a 14-year-old sorcerer who resides there with his mother and friends, but it is not their home. A home is filled with love, not fear and death. It is merely where they try to survive while the royal guards, the Patrollers, constantly raid the village. They kill anyone with tails, webbing, or fins-anyone who mutated for this underwater existence.To protect innocent lives from the unending attacks, Kostas must get stronger even if this involves going behind his mother's back. Training, sorcery, and seers are the villagers' only hope against the Patrollers and a royal vizier who is as cruel as he is powerful. If Kostas cannot succeed as a protector of the village, Jiolans like him will be massacred to the point of extinction.
