Theme Song
Song Title: Tides of Destiny
In a world where kingdoms above and beneath the waves intertwine,
Love and power collide, hearts yearning for more divine.
Kings and queens' tales unfold, dreams soar, then fall,
In the ocean's shadow, destiny's call enthralls.
Oh, the tides of destiny, they rise, they fall,
In light and darkness dance, heed the ocean's call.
Through storms and calm, fates intertwine,
In the tides of destiny, true hearts align.
Princess lost in sorrow, a queen with schemes so dark,
A prince is seeking his courage, a spark to light his heart.
Beneath the sea, above the waves, the struggle comes alive,
In the mirror of our choices, our true selves we derive.
Oh, the tides of destiny, they rise, they fall,
In light and darkness dance, heed the ocean's call.
Through storms and calm, fates intertwine,
In the tides of destiny, true hearts align.
When shadows fall and hope seems gone,
Look to the sea, where dreams are drawn.
In every wave, a story's told,
Of love and loss, of brave and bold.
A father lost to treachery, a mother's cruel command,
Yet hope remains in hearts that dream and in the strength of hands.
With courage as their compass, they'll navigate the night,
To find a dawn where love prevails and darkness turns to light.
Oh, the tides of destiny, they rise, they fall,
In light and darkness dance, heed the ocean's call.
Through storms and calm, fates intertwine,
In the tides of destiny, our true selves we will find.
So heed the call of the ocean's roar, and listen to the breeze,
In the ebb and flow of life, we find our destinies.
For in the depths and heights we climb, our spirits will align,
In the tides of destiny, our true selves we will find.
