The Empty Sea

The Empty Sea are the coastal and marine waters surrounding Bene. Compositely, The Full Sea are the waters surrounding the Sareige. The Empty Sea is notably dark and either eerily still or incredibly turbulent, and despite a complete lack of aquatic predators, is considered significantly more dangerous than the Full Sea.

'Emptiness'
Without Rl'wyn's careful eye, instruction and importation of sea life both plant and animal, the Empty Sea is merely empty - no life, just saline water. Many divers have found it almost impossible to find a seafloor when away from natural river mouths and bays. Massive, vast, deep and empty. All attempts to grow any kind of seaweed or raise any sort of fish have failed - the water somehow filled with death.

Myth

 * There's a frog on a log in the hole in the bottom of the sea.
