## An Odyssey
After a life fraught with forgotten pain, the deceased Sam receives a once-in-
a-lifetime opportunity: return to the realm of the living to investigate the
desolate sea and piece together the epic history of Sardinia.
## The World of Sardinia
The remains of this once beautiful domain are haunting: broken edifices from
ancient wars, abandoned temples to unknown gods, and a swirl of decay that
permeates the entire ocean. To find his answers, Sam must swim through the
four realms – and beyond.
* Realm of the Sacred Basin
This central region is where Sam starts his otherworldly journey.
* Realm of the Giants’ Grave
Gravestones make tribute to a bygone race’s hubris. Discover the giants’
forgotten stronghold, Megalithica, to see what they left behind.
* Realm of the Cursed Cavern
They say in the heart of this realm rests a cavern with a hypnotic effect.
Reach it through the Death Chasm, then resist its lure and claim its treasure.
* Realm of the Undercurrent
Only those who master an elusive magic can navigate this unforgiving abyss,
which leads to an underwater inferno.
* Davey Jones’ Locker
A reality beyond our own.

## Legendary Characters
As Sam uncovers more of Sardinia’s lost mythology, he gets closer and closer
to finding the culprit of its demise. Every legend is a suspect:
* Davey Jones
Presider of the dead. An incomprehensible force that lives beyond reality as
we know it: the realm of the dead, otherwise known as Davey Jones’ Locker.
* Mansa Sea
The Sea herself – the mystical binding force of all life. She is everything,
and you are her. Disrespect her power and join Davey Jones.
* Calypsa
A mischievous force, said to haunt the deepest depths of Sardinia. She holds
secrets known to no one and dwells in a realm unlike any other.
* Giants
Massive sea creatures once regarded as honorable before their hubris resulted
in their imminent demise by Mansa Sea.
* Forgotten Fish
Sardinia was once full of life before the Great Purge. Sam will learn the
story of their creation, and through this mythology, will piece together the
cause of their destruction.
