### Summary
In a post-apocalyptic world submerged by a 70-year monsoon, the quest of siblings Bota and Lita Ma, guided by their guardian harpooner Kana, has been to find a cure for Lita's mutating disease. Their journey, often sidetracked by human conflicts tied to the legacy of their late father, the legendary Teon Ma, recently culminated in an encounter with a sentient leviathan named Krill. Just as Krill offered a potential cure, their vessel was destroyed, severely injuring Kana. In a desperate act of sacrifice, Lita fully embraced her transformation, merging with the ship's wreckage to create a shelter for her companions. This has tragically shifted their objective from finding a cure with Lita to saving her from her current monstrous form. The crisis is escalating as a massive, worldwide mobilization of harpooners now poses an imminent threat, as they will likely mistake the transformed Lita for a hostile leviathan. As the group faces this new danger, reader speculation points towards a new destination, possibly "New York," accompanied by fears that they will once again face human treachery similar to past antagonists who sacrificed refugees to maintain a facade of peace.
