Why can Myra the Sea King go ashore? Maila seems weak, but in fact she is super capable.

Atlanteans originally lived on land, but later, because of some power, they destroyed the whole Atlantis, and the sea flooded Atlantis. At the same time, Atlanteans were also impacted by power and have been living in the water ever since. Atlantis, like fish, can't go ashore. Their soldiers have to wear armor filled with water when they go ashore, but many people are curious about why Mera, the sea king, can go ashore. In fact, this point has been explained in the play.

Myra secretly took Neptune to Atlantis to find Vico, and claimed that only the aristocrats in Atlantis could have the ability to breathe on land. Neptune can breathe on land, not only because he is the child of the queen and the land people, but also because he has the aristocratic lineage of Atlantis. Myra is also the princess of Atlantis, so she can breathe on land. She also has a natural ability to control water, and can always decompose the water in the air to provide enough water for herself.

When chasing Myra and Neptune in the desert, there were many soldiers sent by Atlantis. After their armor is broken, the sea water will flow out and suffocate, but Neptune's younger brother Om will not have such a reaction. Atlanteans who have been living in water are actually like fish, unable to adapt to the air. Although the movie says that they can live in water is an evolution, it is actually a degeneration. Only nobles can be regarded as evolution, because they not only retain the habit of adapting to the air, but also breathe in the water.

As a princess, Maila not only can breathe on land, but also has super ability. Although this is not reflected much in the film, Om almost killed Aquaman when he was fighting Aquaman. It was the critical moment when Mae La came out and was knocked down by water pressure, which showed that Mae La was very capable.
