The sand.... and then some.

Mirah lives to cater to the whims of her grandfather, the only family member she had left. A horrible accident had left her orphaned at only twelve years old, and her grandfather and his crew had raised her as their own. Her grandfather was a very successful business man, retired by most standards, and lived peacefully on his luxury yacht. His floating home was all that she knew, other than the schools he had sent her to study at. She had grown up knowing what the finer things in life were, but the crew, her extended family, had taught her to enjoy the simpler things in life. One day while enjoying those simplicities, a day walking and picking flowers on a secluded island, she found something, or someone, that would challenge the way she lived.
