Before we existed on this planet, the gods created many slave species – each new creation supplanting the last as their usefulness passed into history…

Or they became too hard to control.

Nereus is a servant to the creator-gods. He acts as liaison between master and subject. That is not, however, how his people view this relationship – to this race of sea-people, the Telchines, they are nothing but slaves. They live their entire lives on this island, all the while shadowed by the looming crystal citadel that floats above them in the distance.

His people were made for a purpose. They were gifted with the ability to mold water to their will.They use their skills to build homes, grow food, and work metal in steam-heated, underwater forges, making them highly-prized by their masters. Nereus, however, has no such ability. But when everything our hero knows begins to sink into a sea of betrayal and fear, he must stand up for himself and the people who labeled him an outcast.

He feels he has no hope of putting a stop to what’s coming… like he’s losing his mind… he’s even hearing voices. Are those voices only in his head?

Now seen for the first time, having been conceived in 2012, the generations of this story have been a multitude. Now boiled down to its essence, the first issue of Aquatigraphica introduces us not only to Nereus and his struggle for survival, but also to the forgotten world of gods beyond the knowledge of the most ancient of legends. Enjoy this issue while you can. What comes next turns…
