Enter a whole new world of fantasy and adventure: the watery land of
Marmundo, where kings rule tiny islands scattered throughout the vast sea, and
stray ships really can fall off the face of the planet! To protect this land
from evil, great armored Aqua Knights patrol the seas mounted atop noble orcas
seeking adventure and combat. One such Aqua Knight, Ruliya of Perla, washes
ashore on a mysterious lighthouse island after being caught in a storm. Little
does she know that this tiny island will be the beginning of an adventure that
will take her to the far edges of the world and back! In This Volume: On the
remote island of Faro, not far from the World's Edge, a stormy night brings a
visitor to the lighthouse keeper Arrabarus and his young son Ashika. When they
find a suit of armor washed up near the shore, they open it to reveal a
beautiful woman, the Aqua Knight Ruliya of Perla, far off her intended course.
For saving her life, Ruliya grants young Ashika the privilege of being her
squire - a mistake she will come to regret! When the megalomaniac genius
Alcantara steals a magical light sphere from Faro and kidnaps Ashika, Ruliya
must set off to rescue the boy and maintain the delicate balance between the
living and the dead!
