Imagine a world where the sky is replaced by a dark and endless ocean. This is the world of The Deep Above. The people of this world suffer a bleak life in darkness, longing for the warm light of the Lumathans - giant sea creatures worshipped as gods and the only source of light in the world. One day, a group of outcasts set out to change all that forever and attempt the impossible: Fly up to the ocean, hunt one of the Lumathans for its light and bring it down to the people. Will they succeed in their dangerous mission?
