It stars Merryn, a young girl who lives with her widowed father in a small shack overlooking the sea. Every day, her father goes out fishing while she takes care of things at home and waits for him to return in the evenings. After he does not return, she has a nightmare of his boat being pulled under the water, so she builds a makeshift submarine and dives into the sea to locate him before it's too late. It also features a tie-in novel that tells the same story in a different manner but also elaborates on plot points left unclear in the game.
