As you explore into this book,let the waves carry you cause there is a treasure awaiting. With all my love Emmanuel Luciana Sister of the author. PREFACE Ever since I was a child,I developed interest and passion in reading and writing thereby always performing excellently well in debates competitions.I strived on with my passion even after entering secondary school,became much more addicted to reading novels as I would never be able to figure out my self if I do not try reading something new in a day,in fact reading became my hubby. Later on I decided to start my writing journey,although a lot of friends advised me to become an art student because I was in the science department and there view was that since I loved novels to such extent it would pay me well to switch into arts,well I never let anyone put me down in anyway as I realized that writing or publishing a book does not really matter if you were in science or art department. So that was how I came up with the idea of creating a book titled OCEAN TREASURE. I send this book to you with love and appreciation as it makes you see the realities of life from another different perspective. Thank you Emmanuel Lucia. PROLOGUE Decades ago in the marine world a prophecy was made concerning the unveiling of a treasure in the depths of the ocean.Powerful enchantment were made by mermaids in order to locate this treasure but it proved abortive because they were never destined in discovering such treasure due to the spell casted by a long dead ancestral priest of the ocean that only a destined charming prince would be capable of doing so. The ocean was divided into two parts,Atlantis and Coral haven.mermaids where allowed to enter the two kingdoms freely and create a peaceful cohesion among one another.The ocean's heart was a place for togetherness. Long after,at last the charming prince was born in the royal family of the Atlantis kingdom which brought joy and celebrations in the realms of mermaids.The prince had a natural magical power in him which lead to the unleashing of the prophecy made over the past years.As time grew he unexpectedly embarked on a deadly journey in order to break an obstacle made by the marine demon named Aria who foresaw the future and realized that the prince had greater potential and later resulted in plotting evil against him and as well putting her kingdom at risk because of her unruly behaviour. The young charming prince later discovers the hidden treasure after five years of intense battle which lead to his victory,and also gives him access to seeing his long awaited love prebby as he also free her from the prophecy made years ago. It would amaze you to as well know the kind of spell casted on princess prebby at a very young age which leads to the tragedy unfolding of fates between the prince and princess of different kingdoms in the same marine world.
