Water is the essence of all life, no living thing can survive without it. Vast oceans cover nearly three quarter of the planet and is inhabited by an insurmountable number of undersea flora and fauna. It could be described as a thing of beauty. However, underneath all that beauty one can always find something ugly hidden away.
For nearly a decade now, Equestria and all of its neighboring countries, once prideful kingdoms settled upon a massive continent, have been reduced to nothing more than a collections of islands in the big blue. Everyone found their way to adjust to this new world. Some encountering more hardships than most, others driven by a mad attempt to rebuild the society that once was. But one thing is for certain:
When the tide rolled in, no one knew that it would be forever...

needs a sequel
3602890 thinking about it
randomly found this, AND I LOVED IT. Reminds me of an old movie but I can't remember the name of it for the life of me.
I hope you do make a sequel, I'd love to see what you would do with this world.

THANK YOU! Now I just feel silly
Amazingly done, you know, stories like this tend to fill me with some sort of...I don't know, melancholic feeling. It makes me feel...I can't place that emotion. Lost? Sadness? I can never tell.
This was really good you're awesome
The saddest thing is that it is a brilliant idea ruined by poor execution. It might have been a great overlook on the brave new waterworld with its quirks and trials of the daily routine its creatures living, flavoured with a ting of slice of life, and the first third of the story succeeds in doing so but then it all rushes down to unnecessary explanations to invoke the feeling of incompleteness, striving to portray everything instead of what really matters. Had you sticked to the the moment of ‘now’ instead of ‘back then’ it would’ve been a great little piece of an interesting AU, but what we got is only a blind probe into the unknown of rather careless style.
