In a world scorched by betrayal, six must rise-if they can survive the serpent that binds them.
The empire is dying, not with a roar, but with a whisper of steel and shadows. In the ashes of a forgotten rebellion, six strangers-each marked by loss, lies, or legacy-are bound together by a mission they don't fully understand, to retrieve a relic that may not even exist: the Crown of the First Serpent.
Johan, the broken stevedore with a killer's past.
Darr, the exiled paladin, haunted by a god who no longer answers.
Wandalor, the half-elf scholar who knows too much to live.
Gadlin, the forged warrior who has no memory of who he once was.
Charlotte, the spy who walks the knife's edge between love and duty.
And Varian, the man who may yet be a dragon-or a myth walking in flesh.
But this is no quest for glory. Their path winds through plague-wracked cities, sunless ruins, and blood-soaked battlefields-each step stalked by an ancient enemy known only as the Serpent, a being as old as truth and twice as cruel.
All six are fugitives. All six are flawed. And one of them is a traitor.
As the Empire fractures and the gods remain silent, the six must decide what they're willing to become to save a world that's already forgotten them. Or whether they'll feed the Serpent the one thing it craves more than power: their souls.
Serpent and the Six is a brutal, heart-wrenching tale of found family, fallen gods, and the cost of choosing hope in a world built on ruin.
