What they share

What Arpeggio of Blue Steel -Ars Nova DC- is
You command a rusted training sub crawling the drowned coast. An armored figure surfaces from the mist with a warship you should hate but can’t resist. Then I-401 offers its cannons against the Fleet of Mist. It’s a director’s trick: turn the sky into a water world and watch one outcast decide which side to drown first.
