"In the time of the flood, Undersea Kingdom told the land creatures they could save themselves if they came into the sea where they would be able to breathe again ten feet under the water. The animals that trusted and believe survived the flood, and lived a part of their lives underwater. They developed gills, yet returned to their natural state when the waters abated. The Raven was an air breathing creature that lived. The Undersea Saga is re-enacted in the Undersea Kingdom Dance."
