Oona is a young mermaid who lives in the sea with her turtle and otter friends. Together, the three love nothing more than collecting mysterious treasures from the surface world, and boy do they have a lot of them. However, there is one treasure that's always been just out of their grasp: a tiara sitting in a dark crevice. Thanks to the ocean rift down there, Oona has never been able to get close to it, no matter how many times she's tried. And frankly, it's begun to frustrate her. What's a little mermaid girl to do to get her hands on a tiara?
