In the glittering, snake-infested court of Ignis, where power was a double-edged sword and loyalty a rare gem, Selanthia Amaris Nyxveil stood as a legend cloaked in infamy. Known by many names—*The Hound of the Emperor*, **The Cursed Sword*, **The Witch of Nyxveil*, and *The Abandoned One*—she was a weapon forged by duty and sharpened by betrayal. 

For forty long years, she served as the Emperor’s blade, cutting down threats to the throne with ruthless precision. Yet, behind the cold steel and the icy gaze, Selanthia harbored no love for the crown or the vipers who surrounded it. She was a woman bound by fate, not choice.

At 48, weary of the endless machinations of the court, Selanthia chose to retire. With no family to call her own, she left behind the gilded cage of Ignis for the simplicity of the countryside. Her dreams were modest: to bake sweet treats, tend to chickens, lose herself in books she’d never had time to read, and find solace in the quiet rhythm of church prayers. A peaceful, ordinary life—a stark contrast to the blood-stained path she had walked for decades.

But fate, it seemed, had other plans. Just 28 hours into her newfound tranquility, Selanthia’s life was brutally cut short. Poisoned and attacked in the dead of night, she breathed her last beneath a cold, uncaring sky. Her final thoughts were not of vengeance or regret for the life she had led, but of the life she had never known. She wished for love, for a kind and handsome partner, for children whose laughter might have filled the void in her heart. She wished she had never taken up the sword, that she might have written a different ending to her tale.

Yet, death was not the end. Selanthia awoke not in the afterlife but in a world both familiar and strange. Perched high in a cherry blossom tree, she was greeted by the voice of Rina, her long-dead confidante. 

Now, thrust into a bewildering new reality, Selanthia must unravel the threads of this strange second chance. Is this a cruel jest of the gods, a dream spun from her dying regrets, or something far more sinister? 

And why, of all people, THAT MAN—who disappeared without a word— is acting all weird? As the petals of the cherry blossoms fall around her, Selanthia finds herself caught in a web of mystery, romance, and perhaps, redemption. But in this enchanted new life, where nothing is as it seems,  can she unravel the twist of life brought forward by THAT MAN? Or will the shadows of her past rise to claim her once more?

So, in the first 55 episodes nothing much will be happening as the ground work for the story will be laid though first 55 episodes giving a better understanding about some of the main characters!!!!


So, If you find it bothersome.... 🤔 I don't know what I have to do 🫠.


This is my first time writing a proper novel so there is so much to do but I will try my best to make it a good experience for you.


The story will center around the protagonist and 5 main  characters and their different motivations. 


The greatest challenge would be to stop the Cataclysm of Dawn and Dusk from happening again.


And in this book, Evil is stronger, so the battles will be twisted and bloody.


And there will be several arcs which showcases the growth, struggle, motivations, pain, happiness of the Protagonist and other main characters.


As romance is a subplot here, there can lots of tension, so please try to keep it up.


Idedicate this novel to all the souls who battle against their own demons only to find salvation in the smallest moments of happiness.
