Roduas

Roduas is a fictional entity appearing in the fantasy novel "The Serpent's Shadow" by fantasy author P.R. Blackwood. Within the narrative, Roduas is presented as an ancient and powerful being, often described as a primordial force or a god-like entity tied to the very fabric of the world. Its origins are shrouded in mystery, with some legends suggesting it predates the current pantheon of deities.

The influence of Roduas is subtle but pervasive, shaping events and influencing the destinies of mortals and immortals alike. It is not typically depicted as an active participant in the day-to-day affairs of the world, but rather as a source of cosmic energy or an underlying principle that governs existence. Characters within the story may seek its favor, fear its wrath, or attempt to understand its true nature, though such endeavors are often fraught with peril and uncertainty.

The exact nature and capabilities of Roduas are intentionally left ambiguous by the author, contributing to its mystique. It is rarely, if ever, directly seen or interacted with, existing more as a concept or a presence that looms over the narrative. Its role is to provide a sense of deep history and a connection to a power beyond mortal comprehension, adding a layer of cosmic significance to the unfolding events of "The Serpent's Shadow." The entity serves as a reminder of forces far greater than the characters themselves.
