Having read a decent part of the story, I can not fathom how this still hasn't reached more people. Perhaps the title or the lack of a cover is preventing this story from reaching the heights it deserves, I hope that my review can convince those that consider taking this up that it is definitely worth your time!
We follow for the most part Enid, each chapter the author reveals more and more of the rich history of the main protagonist. Enid is a seer, heir to the throne of the vampire empire and at first we follow her when she is solving a problem that is threathening to disturb the fragile "peace" of vampires in human society.
This however is not an origin story. From this point in the story the character has already lived for over 1200 years and has ashieved her mastery of her powers. Yet she still is confronted by things and powers that are higher and unknown to her.
The author manages to incorporate existing lore (from sources like the bible) into the story that both manages to familiarize us with it while still giving it a spin to make it unique and mysterious. The story reads to me as a sort of biography with retellings of an immortal character throughout history. The author finds good ways to lead into each time period and makes you hunger for more information in each time period of what exactly happened. Time jumps are used wisely, needed for a story spanning millenia.
Grammer and style are good, sometimes you see a word that should have been removed, or a sentence that whilst typing probably was rewritten and the verb not being the correct tense but for even an average reader of the english language this forms absolutely no problem.
Either way, it is a great read so take your time and start reading this undiscovered diamond, with almost 1000 pages and updates daily! This is perfect for someone that loves stories spanning entire centuries and even for those who don't! A great find deserving of so much more!
To the author: You have a gift, don't give up!

I have read many stories on royal road, an out of all the completed ones I've read, this one is my favourite. The mc is strong not because she is a genius and is somehow stronger than beings millenia older than her, but because of more realistic reasons(I don't mean realistic as in close to real life, but as in it kinda makes sense considering what she is).
While there is action, the main reason I like this book is because is good character growth that makes sense. The events that happen in this book also happen at a sensible rate, although there is always something happening, it is not because the mc gets trouble constantly thrown at her, but because there are time skips between major plot points.
My favourite thing about this story is that it explores the past, so we get to see the mc at different places and different times.

Eu não me lembro da última vez que li algo assim. Comecei essa história por tédio mas quanto mais eu lia mais eu queria ler.
Ver o crescimento de Enid como pessoa e ser humano foi uma das experiências mais fascinantes. O autor contou a história de uma maneira em que eu pude entrar na história e ver da perspectiva de um observador real.
Todo esse mundo criado pelo autor me fez questionar minha própria humanidade, me fez enxergar toda a história humana de outro ponto. Me ensinou mais sobre o perdão do que eu aprenderia lendo a própria bíblia. Eu chorei com Enide em seus momentos mais difíceis, e pude sentir e entender nos mínimos detalhes o que ela passava.
Uma história fantástica como essa deveria estar sendo vendida em um livro impresso, deveria receber mais visibilidade.
Eu gostaria de agradecer profundamente ao autor pela sua imaginação e criatividade, e por disponibilizar seu trabalho aqui sem cobrar nada.
Uma história com personagens verdadeiros, com sentimentos e uma profundidade imensa, um mundo real e que poderia muito bem ser uma realidade paralela.
Se tiver tempo e oportunidade leia, isso irá te ensinar valores que estão sendo esquecidos e deixados para trás nos dias de hoje.

I just didn't understand the reason for how the thoughts are shown. They just felt so disconnected from the rest of the writing style. Maybe that's the intention? Maybe there were some parts about it that were meant to be like that, but I just couldn't get behind it personally. Some might like that sharp edge, but I wasn't among that group. Style and grammar on the other side are good enough, though. 4.5/5 for that.

This piece desperately needs an editor. It's fatiguing to discern "rode" from "road" at least once a paragraph. Anything that would make sense with a dash or colon is instead left as a run-on. If it has to be read twice to make sense, then it's poorly written.
I stopped after 4 chapters, so I can't give a fair critique of story or characters.
