== Throughout Call of the Sea ==
Norah Everhart is startled when she receives a package containing a photograph of her missing husband, Harry. The image is accompanied by coordinates leading to an island east of Otaheite (Tahiti). Harry had vanished during an expedition aimed at finding a cure for Norah's family ailment, which is gradually claiming her life. Driven by a sense of urgency and recurring dreams about the island, Norah decides to embark on the journey herself.
Upon reaching the island, Norah stumbles upon the remnants of the expedition's camp, which included Harry, journalist Cassandra Ward, mechanic Frank Dayton, dermatologist Ernest De Witt, stuntman Roy Granger, and their Tahitian guide Teaharoa. She learns that the team had stumbled upon a sacred well utilized by the islanders for a mysterious ritual involving a peculiar black substance. Impulsively, Roy had triggered an explosion with dynamite, leading to tragic consequences and the onset of a bizarre affliction for De Witt, mirroring Norah's own symptoms.
The team's efforts to replicate the ritual had been futile, especially after their ship, the Lady Shannon, ran aground nearby. Norah, desperate for a cure, decides to recreate the ritual herself, leading to a surreal encounter where she envisions herself undergoing a transformation into a sea creature.
Upon awakening, Norah discovers the Lady Shannon wrecked and the crew missing. She finds another camp set up by the expedition, witnessing the deteriorating mental state of De Witt, who had turned violent. The group had discovered a mysterious organ carved into the rocks, which they used to unveil a passage to a temple atop the island.
In her quest for answers, Norah reaches the temple, where a series of events involving the organ's music unfold, eventually leading to a shocking revelation through a note left by Harry. She learns that her ailment is not an illness but a natural transformation into something new.
Norah discovers gateways enabling her to embrace her amphibious form and eventually arrives at a village inhabited by the islanders, who serve enigmatic masters. Guided by Harry's notes, she heads towards a sanctuary where she encounters creatures that seem to recognize her.
Inside the sanctuary, Norah confronts a grim reality as she finds Cassandra's mutated remains, realizing her covetous desires for immortality led to Harry's demise. Harry, having understood the futility of the ritual for himself, orchestrates the elaborate hoax to prompt Norah's transformation and save her.
The story culminates with Norah facing a pivotal choice: to complete her transformation and forsake her humanity for eternal life underwater or to reject it and spend her remaining time with Harry. The narrative branches depending on the player's decision, leading to either a bittersweet reunion or a poignant separation. In either case, Harry is left to ponder the consequences of his actions, years later, as he contemplates his deceit while working at Miskatonic University.
