STORY & ILLUSTRATIONS No.15
The Decisive Battle Surging Around the Lone Flaming Seas Island
The “Atlanteans”: An army aiming to dominate all of the land. The “Mermails”: overwhelmed by their power, waiting for their chance to strike back. And the “Fire Kings”, who inhabit the disputed, solitary island. This three-way struggle only continues to intensify.

Story Guide
Seismic movements were caused by the fight of the Atlanteans lead by “Poseidra” against the Fire Kings. As a result, the Mermails, displaced from their habitat, had their treasured bracelet stolen from them, and began to be ruled by the Atlanteans. However, there is a secret hidden in that bracelet…

“Garunix”, the protector of the solitary island, facing the advancing forces of the Atlanteans, ignites its own body to its limits, successfully forcing the Atlantean forces to retreat.

It is said that whoever obtains this bracelet will become the king of the Mermails. Poseidra gets its wish to rule over the Atlanteans once it obtained this bracelet, however its body was taken over by the king living inside of it.

The Flaming Birth of the Fire King Deity
Due to the fierce attacks of the allied forces of the Atlanteans and Mermails, the seismic movements in the “Fire King Island” became more frequent. As a result, the “Fire King Sanctuary” hidden inside the volcano of the solitary island revealed itself. Surprisingly, a ring just like the Mermail’s bracelet was enshrined in it. And furthermore, from this ring which was the energy source of the solitary island, the spirit “Ulcanix” emerged in front of the subjects of the Fire Kings.

Fire King Sanctuary

“Fire King High Avatar Garunix”, who had burnt away in the previous battle, was reborn as “Ponix” through the “Circle of the Fire Kings”. Ponix, receiving the power of Ulcanix, the spirit protecting the ring, ascended to a “Sacred Fire King”. The power of the Sacred Fire King also affected its allies, evolving its entourage of Fire King Avatars into Fire King High Avatars.

When Poseidra wore the bracelet, its body was taken over by “Abyssgaios”, the King of the Mermails who was sealed inside of it. Abyssgaios, who had observed the battles between the Atlanteans and the Fire Kings through the bracelet, resolved to continue attacking the solitary island in order to rebuild the Mermails. He reorganized the allied forces of the Atlanteans and Mermails and began marching once again towards the solitary island.

The Sacred Fire King, sensing the threat, commanded the Fire Kings to ignite their bodies to their limit, combining with Garunix. This was the moment in which “Garunix Eternity, Hyang of the Fire Kings” had its flaming birth. Abyssgaios, scorched by this divine fire, had no other choice but to retreat.

TL notes:
-The title of this chapter combines the Japanese names of Fire King Island (炎王の孤島, Solitary Fire King Island) and Firestorms Over Atlantis (渦巻く海炎, Swirling/Surging Sea-Flames)
-“Fire King Deity” is the title in the Japanese name of Garunix Eternity (炎王神, en’oushin), which was localized as “Hyang”.
-A more literal translation with the Japanese names for the “Avatars” becoming “High Avatars” would be that “Fire King Beasts” becoming “Fire King Divine Beasts”.

The Divided Forces of the Seas
A strange phenomenon occurred to Abyssgaios after he was injured by the divine flames: Suddenly, the consciousness of Poseidra, who had its body stolen, had regained control. It sacrificed the souls of the Atlantean army, who were supposed to be its allies, as nourishment to recover its body.

After regaining control, Poseidra split the bracelet in two, separating itself from Abyssgaios. At that moment, Abyssgaios, having most his power stolen away, lost his memories and transformed into “Neptabyss”. Abysstrite, the Queen of the Mermails, extended a helping hand towards Neptabyss.

Since the power of the bracelet was weakened after Poseidra stole it, the Mermails were able to escape from its control. However, the quick-witted Abysstrite pretended to still be under its control in order to deceive Poseidra. Using this to her advantage, she helped Neptabyss become the “Atlantean Prince”. Hiding her aspirations for revenge in the bottom of her heart, she pretended to join forces with the Atlanteans, in order to rebuild the lost capital of the Mermails: Lemuria.

Abysstrite headed towards land in order to investigate Lemuria, which had surfaced due to the seismic movements. However, in order for her to walk on land, she had to perform a forbidden technique, paying a dear price in exchange for legs. She was willing to sacrifice anything in order to recover the treasures of the Mermails, and finish off Poseidra when it least expects it. She was resolute…

Abysstrite proceeded towards Lemuria, accompanied by the three sisters serving as the Queen’s entourage: “Abysslinde”, “Abyssgunde” and “Abysshilde”. When they arrived to the very depths of Lemuria, they were influenced by the Mermail spirits of old, and were suddenly enveloped by a bright light. Immediately after that, the spirit guarding the bracelet, “Abyssrhine”, manifested herself. Abyssrhine explained the truth behind the bracelet, and formed an ancient covenant with Abysstrite. And thus, “Abysstrite, the Atlantean Spirit” was born.

Thanks to the efforts of Abysstrite, Neptabyss assembled all 3 Abyss-scales in one place. With their power, he recovered his memories, and finally declared independence from the Atlanteans.

The 3 Hidden Treasures

Poseidra spent this brief break building its forces and recovering the power it lost during its fight against the Fire King Deity. Leading the armies of the Atlanteans, which had been reduced to less than half, they invaded the solitary island once again.

Poseidra faces Garunix, who had become a Fire King Deity, once again. As the heads of each of the forces clash, their bracelets shine brightly in response to each other. And as they did, Poseidra’s body transformed in the blink of an eye, evolving into the three-headed “Poseidra Abyss”.
