Fathom, though, is horrified when she learns that the Talmirans feast upon their own children. Kotatu tries to persuade Fathom into staying in Talmira. Seeing no other solution, Maelstrom sacrifices himself, swimming down K'Karge's throat, then exploding out from inside the demon, in a spray of blood and water. The battle goes poorly for Fathom, and Maelstrom, who are clearly outmatched by the powerful underworld beast. After dispatching a blood demon, in the shape of a monstrous crab, Fathom, and Maelstrom, attack K'Karge. Using the inert body of Monolith, K'Karge has been able to batter away at his centuries long entombment. Fathom is about to put an end to the cruel ritual, when a seaquake, and mocking laughter, herald the return of K'Karge. Young Talmirans torture a giant squid, in a rite of manhood. One such "festivity", however, fills Fathom with revulsion.

Fathom garners the assistance of the Talmirans, and Maelstrom, in searching for her lost teammate, Monolith. The Talmirans were cursed, becoming more fish than human, eventually establishing their community deep beneath the Pacific Ocean. The cheifs of Talmira ordered Maelstrom to annihilate the Senket, an act which earned the wrath of the Elemental spirits. Maelstrom, along with the Talmiran Medicine Man, imprisoned K'Karge. Aqua resurrected him, and endowed him a portion of her power. The man who would become Maelstrom had been killed by a jealous rival, and left to rot in a deep pool. The water spirit, Aqua, was tasked with creating a champion for Talmira, one who could vanquish K'Karge. This upset in the natural order prompted the intervention of the four Elemental spirits. A rival tribe, the Senket, summoned K'Karge, a demon from Hell, to destroy the Talmirans. Once upon a time, the Talmirans were human, living on the land.
