Hogwarts: The Serpent's Daughter

Della Riddle lived a numb existence, an orphan outcast labeled 'monster' for her hidden abilities. Every interaction was a puppet show orchestrated by her uncanny eyes, leaving her detached, bored, a loyal snake her only companion. But then Dumbledore arrived. He saw the serpentine power that echoed a Dark Lord's past, heard her speak to snakes, and offered a place at Hogwarts. This wasn't just magic; it was a stage for her true, unsettling talents. Now, as she walks the halls of Slytherin with her loyal serpent, the wizarding world awaits its newest, most unpredictable 'hero.' Will she conquer the darkness, or will her unique gifts twist her into something far more dangerous than the original Dark Lord ever dreamed?
