Mera has arrived to the Xebel kingdom and tries to warn the people about the Dead King. A man named Nereus, who claims to be Mera's husband, kisses her. Mera claims not to be his wife, but Nereus says that Mera was supposed to be the queen of Xebel by his side. She was also supposed to kill Aquaman. Instead, she fell in love with him. At the Atlantean prison, Vulko watches the seaweed and realizes the currents are changing. This can only mean a new enemy, or an old threat, has risen.
