In a kingdom built on whispers, General Kael seizes the throne by betraying the king he once swore to protect. His crown is won with silence, fear, and blood—yet power breeds only paranoia. Queens weave webs, rebels rise, assassins creep, and ghosts haunt his nights. As allies wither and betrayals tighten, Kael answers with fire and poison, ruling as the Serpent King until, at last, he dies alone on the throne, clutching a crown cursed by his own hand.
