The Sea King's Palace was in fact a beautiful city on the ocean floor that is surrounded by fine, bright, ivory-colored sand. Sunlight streaming into the palace through the clear ocean water provided the palace's sea-swimming inhabitants, who wore beautiful Oriental-style clothing and accessories, an ethereal atmosphere. But this all changed when the apostles of darkness took control and converted the palace into a base for sea monsters to advance and attack enemies on land. The monsters were also equipped with a device that allowed land creatures to move freely within the sea's waters. The damage done to the Sea King's Palace was one of the most tragic outcomes to result from the reorganization between light and darkness.
