A small pirate crew has decided to abandon the corrupt world and its government by setting sail to the open blue. They find a beautiful island and create their dream home there. It turns out this land is own by fish men and women. They hate humans and want them off the island. The pirates have claimed their land and will not give it up easily.

A community of peaceful merfolk are living on and under an island that is fruitful and lush. It is paradise. Once they had lived near the humans and were referred to as fish. Some were captured and killed then sold. The merfolk saw the evil of humanity and have hated them since then. One day some humans invade their home and they want it back.

Neither side will kill anyone on the other but they will capture them. Since neither side will kill anyone it's a war to capture the other sides leader. The King of the merfolk or the Captain of the pirates.

Even though the two sides hate each other a few merfolk might have fallen in love with a pirate and vice versa.
