As La NA explores the familiar beach, she discovers something incredible: a colony of Aquicorns, small magical seahorse-like creatures that live in the coral reef. La NA rescues an injured Aquicorn and cares for it with the help of her aunt, who may know more about these strange creatures than she's willing to admit.

La NA realizes she will need to find the strength to stand on her own, even when it means standing up to the people who she has always relied on to protect her.
