The Serpent Goddess's Tear

Cody rescued white snake from Warren Marks. Cody rescued Grace; they married. Plague hit Yellow River Town; Drake seized well. Grace poisoned, Cody beaten. White Snake spat Inner Core to save Grace, weakening. Drake fled after White Snake defended town. Marks and Dalton tried to seize Grace. Cody blocked Dalton's knife. White Snake saved Cody, then sank, saying she'd sleep and return. Marks repented. Cody, Grace, child saw white arc flash. Kindness endures.
