"History is a survivor's tale. It knows no villains. Only failures."

A decade ago, Leudora had her major enemies eliminated - the scientist known as the Dalmatian Serpent, and his followers, who sought her people's blood. A ruthless guardian of her kin and an unscrupulous politician, Leudora lived with her guilty conscience for as long as the invisible barrier that shields civilization from madness remained intact. But it is no longer so. When the Veil starts to fade, slowly poisoning the air and endangering those whom she once sought to protect, Leudora wants answers.

She does not expect it when the answers confirm the Dalmatian Serpent's theories: Leudora's own people, conducting bloody experiments to protect themselves from their powerful neighbors, are causing the Veil's degradation. If this gets out, not only the guilty, but all her people will be blamed. Trying to prevent a war and stop the Veil's decay, Leudora turns to her enemy's research. 

The deeper she delves into the Dalmatian Serpent's secrets, the more Leudora finds herself drawn to his fascinating mind and dark science. If she follows in his footsteps, all her kin will turn against her.  If Leudora stays loyal to her people, she will have to side with those who may bring them all to the verge of extinction.

Welcome to the first version of my work that I published on Wattpad. 


The Story of the Basilisk and the Serpent is complete. However, the great game will continue in "The Noblest Shroud", the second part of the trilogy.

Trigger Warnings: questionable morals, angst, mild gore, occasional violence. That should cover it. If you don't mind these aspects, you will (most likely) enjoy reading my work.

The new magnificent cover is created by @lavendareyes, a graphic designer and an author, whose creative work deserves all attention and praise.

Unknown to the average human world, there is a place where every supernatural being that fuels nightmares resides. Shielded completely from prying eyes, the only way in is to be captured.

However, when her auction day is cut short by someone powerful enough to buy a coveted object such as a pure-born servile hours before the bidding started; she is thrown into chaos. She learns things she never thought were possible, discovers her mother's past, and begins to walk in her foot-steps. Suddenly, she is thrust into a future where she has to battle royal blood and save those who can not save themselves.
