Once the ancient waters left Earth and had developed their language, they started to build their kingdom, otherwise known as the high city. The council was selected to prosecute any criminal acts and to debate future advancements for the ancient waters. The high city is a pristine city with above water and underwater buildings with a large castle for the highest members of the council, who are recognized as the kings and queens, and owners of the new planet.
