The veil has torn. The gods and demons have returned. And humanity stands at the edge of annihilation.
When the devas and asuras clash across the skies of Wayanad, young Aadi realizes a devastating truth: this war was never meant for mortals. Villages burn, rivers split, and the earth itself fractures under weapons forged in heaven and hell. In the chaos, Aadi is thrust into a role he never sought-protector of his people, and unwilling pawn in a cosmic struggle.
But Aadi is not alone. From the shadows of history, immortals long thought forgotten return-Ashwatthama, cursed to wander in endless agony; Markandeya, the eternal youth who has witnessed countless destructions; Hanuman, the mighty devotee whose faith has survived ages; Vibhishana, the exiled king haunted by loyalty; Parashurama, the warrior-sage weighed down by blood; and Kripacharya, the teacher of endless wars. Each carries the scars of Maya, each a mirror of what Aadi might become.
Guided by the enigmatic Naag sadhus and their serpent-tantras of time, Aadi discovers that the fate of mortals lies not in choosing sides-but in breaking the cycle itself. His journey leads him to the Ekaaru prophecy, where memory, time, and destiny intertwine. To save his brother and his people, Aadi must face Rahu and Ketu once more-not only in battle, but in the shattered reality of his own heart.
Blending Hindu mythology, mysticism, and speculative science fiction, The Serpent's Time is a sweeping saga of gods and demons, memory and forgetting, devotion and rebellion. It asks the timeless question: what is more dangerous-the illusions we believe, or the truths we refuse to face?
