"THE SERPENT WITCH"

Long ago, in the forgotten caverns beneath a ruined kingdom, a young woman was cast out for practicing forbidden arts. Shunned by mortals and hunted by priests, she descended into the depths where no light touched the stone. There she found an ancient serpent, older than the kingdom itself, a creature born of earth and shadow.

Instead of devouring her, the serpent coiled around her and whispered secrets in a tongue only she could understand. It taught her fire from the molten veins of the world, the runes carved in the bones of the earth, and the price of true power.

Now she rules the cavern as its dark sovereign, fire and venom bound in one. Those who wander too deep into her domain are never seen again—their screams lost among the dripping stalactites and the hiss of scales in the dark.

Some call her a demon, others a goddess. To herself, she is simply what the world made her: the Witch of Flame and Fang.
