My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lady Isra is a powerful witch who lives in a tower in the middle of the forest, she is as dark as dark can be and she is known for it, the local villagers say that she should be avoided at all costs, that she is wicked and evil and that she has power, beauty, control and authority, but she has a cold heart thanks to a lost love and the bitterness which has led her down this dark path, however, she adores nature and everything in it, apart from humans, she has no time for them, but they still come to her for help from time to time and she does just that, as long as they have no ulterior motives which would impact on herself. When she isn’t doing that, she is gaining knowledge and learning about the world around her, even though she casts an invisibility spell that only those with magical abilities will be able to find her in her self imposed isolation and this led her to her darkest spell yet, she ignores all the warnings from her peers and other magical beings and goes after the power of transformation, to merge herself with a dragon, to absorb its magic and keep it for herself, so she goes for a walk in the woods and does just that, she enters a trance-like state of meditation and the dragon approaches her, she speaks with it before plunging a dagger into its heart and after being covered in its emerald blood, she heads home to think about what she has gained.

As the days and weeks passed, Lady Isra and her surroundings became blackened in more ways than one, she is now feared by those around her, darker and more isolated than ever and she has no intention of changing any time soon, but that changes when she meets a python on one of her walks in the forest, as they share a conversation, they find out a little more about the others, Lady Isra feels a connection and kinship with the snake and so she agrees not to harm any of his kind and promises to stop by to converse with him again in the future.
