On one side, the crew of the SS Robin Suzumiya. Enlisted by Captain Sporing for a mission to explore the seabed and collect the remnants of human civilisation, they have laboured at their mission for a long time without knowing its true purpose. Far away on the surface, in his stilt village, young Alfonsino is preparing himself for the trial of cockle-diving. In the depths of the sea, he is drawn to a luminescent stone which will seal his fate...

They don't know it yet, but the destinies of these heroes are about to cross...
