Crystal Cloud 

After the initial shock of the world’s water awakening, humanity comes together to put measures in place to ease adverse climate changes. The oceans are dying and the fresh water resources are being harvested too fast to allow replenishment.

Cherry Mortinger, the limnologist behind Hayyin’s enigmatic identity, works on creating a universal language for water, while Ilanda Mazandir, the neurosurgeon that successfully healed a comatose patient using crystal implants in the eyes, fights to protect her technology from being misused.

Unknown to the masses, but attracted by its novelty, the crystal implants open up unexplored areas of the brain, bordering on telepathy and increased consciousness. A crystal cloud network is the next step in connecting the world in a much more considerate and empathic way.

Crystal Cloud, the sequel to Water Entanglement, is a work of eco-fiction bringing to the forefront water’s ability to heal us when treated with reverence and hurt us when treated with ignorance and disrespect so prevalent in our society.
