    About this ebook

    THE ONE-HUNDRED:

    WATTYS 2015 AWARD WINNER

    Every baby is killed beneath the waves--with one exception. The one-hundred thousandth lives.

    If you're wanting a happy fairytale, keep looking. This isn't the story for you.

    But if you're looking for a mythical story filled with dystopia and magic, both dark and light, keep reading. This story is one where evil is in every crevice of the world, and where one girl is destined to destroy it. But first, she has to choose that destiny.

    A long time ago, 1 in every 100,000 children born from a human was a mermaid. But now mermaids are the only ones that can survive in this flooded world. The human children, the one-hundreds, are placed on the "islands" poking up over the sea. The humans that live through Mother Nature's fury have created Tribes, created rules. One of these rules is to not go near the water, to not touch it.

    And then there's a girl who lives to be sixteen, who goes and touches the water. Who begins to show symptoms of something half-human. Symptoms of a mermaid.

    These symptoms have drawn something out from the depths of the woods, from the darkness of the sea... And it's out to get this girl that's growing scales. The One-Hundred in the midst of one-hundreds. Cressa-la.

    Gifted and spared.

    Will she be so lucky again?

    ----

    UNTOUCHED WATER:

    What if Cressa-la hadn't touched the water? How drastically different would things be?

    Every baby is killed beneath the waves--with one exception. The one-hundred thousandth lives.

    A long time ago, 1 in every 100,000 children born from a human was a mermaid. But now mermaids are the only ones that can survive in this flooded world. Every human child born is killed the moment they take their first breath. However, one in every one-hundred thousand is spared.

    These children are placed on the mountain-tops, the "islands", that poke up over the sea. The Earth has become warmer, making these islands habitable. The humans that survive through Mother Nature's fury have created Tribes, created rules. One of these rules is to not go near the water, to not touch it.

    And Cressa-la doesn't.

    Because she chose to follow the rules, could there be an even bigger consequence than when she had?

    -----

    You know Cressa-la's story. But do you know Tamir's?

      My Story “How An Injured Dolphin Helped Me Heal”

      Jun 15, 2022

      As he slides under my palm my fingers brush against his cool skin, which feels as soft as the finest mulberry silk. I’m weightless, suspended, my feet can’t touch the ground. I tread water to keep afloat. As I awkwardly bob, the wild dolphin dives, s

      One of my favourite parts of this book is the map because it maps out the routes that all the female adventurers took. Each of the women went on their own adventures and through this book, I got to explore with them. Most of the time, the journeys we
