The six Trial Guardians entered together, chatting quietly amongst themselves except for one.
The only one who remained calm, distant, and unbothered.
The one they called the Serpent Queen.

The obsidian serpent wrapped around her arm shimmered with a stellar luster that made Kitsuul silently hiss under her breath, though neither the Void Serpent nor its master sensed a thing.
Her name was Serena.
The Serpent Queen.
