"My lady, quick you must get to safety!"
A great whirlpool was about to strike the magnificent underwater city, Maraqua.
"Mother, I'm scared." cried a little Maraquan child.
"Hush now child soon it will be all over." The queen of Maraqua carried her only daughter Princess Isa, to the surface of the waters and left her at the shores of Krawk Island, "Isa, you must be safe from this whirlpool so stay here."
"But mother what about the other Maraquans? Shouldn't they be safe also?"
"Just pray that they will survive." With a wave of the queen's hand over Isa's forehead she took her memory but left her name. Isa fainted as her mother took her memory away, "Good luck Isa and good bye." As the queen dived back into the depths of the sea she took one last look at her daughter just lying there on the sandy shore and left.
As the whirlpool struck there was clang, the sound of pillars smashing into each other, booms, sounds of temples and buildings and houses tumbling down. After the whirlpool not many survived and their homes were destroyed also. The king of Maraqua luckily survived the whirlpool but the queen did not. The Maraquans mourned over their beloved queen that day. King Kelpbeard started to look for other survivors. On one such journey he found two sisters hiding in a broken down shack from possible looters. He took them in. One of the sisters' names was Isca and the other Caylis. On another journey he found a boy named Lafel. With the many survivors he found, they together started to rebuild a new city.
An old Lupe was walking down the shore when he saw Isa, lying in the sand. He picked her up and said, "Girl, wake up! Girl!" but she would not wake, "She is unconscious. I will bring her to home." The Lupe carried her to a house just at the edge of the sea. "Madison, I found an Aisha lying in the sand. She was unconscious!"
"Oh dear is she alright? Here John, rest her on the bed." While the couple were still waiting for Isa to awake they talked and talked about what would happen to the poor little Aisha till finally they decided they would be her parents. Hours and hours had past and Isa finally woke up.
"Uhhhh…ow my head. Huh? Uh….where am I and who are you?" "Don't you remember dear? We're your parents." the Acara lied.
"My…parents?"
"Yes daughter. You fell and knocked your head hard and papa has forgotten your name again. These things happen when you're old." The old Lupe gave a nervous chuckle.
"Papa…," The Aisha thought for a moment, "Oh Papa! You're so forgetful! It's Isa of course." she said with a cheerful smile.
"How about we all eat dinner?" Madison the Acara went to set the table, "care to join us Isa?
"Coming Mama!"
