Possible Conclusion: 

River Solomon’s The Deep is a representation of all the culminating factors that can affect identity, ranging from kinship to history. Yetu embarks on a journey that ultimately reveals that her innate connection with the Wajinro is stronger than the lust for freedom and otherness. While the afrofuturistic world in The Deep is a fictitious narrative, it is a utopian worldbuilding narrative that serves as an infinite archive that works to creatively fulfill the possibilities of black lives beyond death and tragedy.
