Welcome to Severance City. Princess and B.C. are known for their flickers: short and fast cons to get what they need. They usually steal syns, the liquid currency of the night folk, however, Vampire mafias, fae cults and shadow covens make daily life treacherous to navigate. Especially for mortal bloods. If you enjoy morally gray characters, slow-burn mysteries and an abundance of mythical creatures, then venture inside. But fair warning. Severance City is known for promoting violent nobility.

Hidden gem — exposure is the bottleneck
Readers who find this story follow it at a high rate; there just aren't enough of them. In our cohort data, near-daily posting lifted the odds of reaching 25 followers from ~0% to 17% — more chapters, shoutout swaps and ads buy the eyeballs this conversion deserves.
Benchmarks: 8,060 active Royal Road stories, percentiles within the 20–49 chapters band, cohort of 2026-07-02. Conversion is measured as followers gained per 1,000 views over the recent window.
