The Cards
132 cards across five types. Each player starts with 6 forts and 6 action cards. The rest is tactics and fate.
36 Fort Cards
Iconic historical forts ranked Level 1 to 6 — from the easily taken to the truly impenetrable. Lose all your forts and you’re out.
72 Basic Tactics
Attack with Siege, Storm, Buy, Deceit, Escalade or Divert. Defend with Scorched Earth, Walls, Fire, Ransom or Integrity. Match power to win — mismatch and lose the fort.
18 Special Cards
Ally Cards, Traitor Cards, and Unique Tactics tied to specific forts — Bridge of Boats, Onake, Giant Mine, Barking Dog, Ghorpad, Deep Sea.
6 Special Circumstances
Game-flipping twists: Bad Weather nullifies all attacks. Inevitability breaks any defense. Samarkand eliminates a player instantly. Saragarhi protects and punishes.
12 Per Player at Start
Each player begins with 6 Fort Cards and 6 Action Cards. No two games start the same way.

A Journey Through
Indian History
I built Serene Path so that therapy could feel less like a clinical appointment and more like a thoughtful conversation — held by someone who has both the credentials and the lived patience to sit with what’s hard.
Real History
Discover real forts, battles, betrayals, and warriors from across India’s medieval past. Every card tells a true story.
Authentic Tactics
Understand ancient siege and defense strategies — scorched earth, escalade, the barking dog trick. Rooted in reality, not fantasy.
Sharp Minds
Sharpen memory, strategic thinking, and decision-making. Qilla rewards patience, planning — and the occasional audacious gamble.

Client Outcomes
Before & After Real Shifts
These aren’t dramatic overnight transformations. They’re the quiet, profound changes
that happen when someone finally stops running from themselves.
Before
“I was a VP at 38, everyone thought I had it figured out. I was quietly having a panic attack every Sunday night before the work week.”
After 3 months
Negotiated a 4-day week, started therapy, began a side project she’d been “too busy” for. Sunday nights are now her favourite time of the week.
Priya N.
VP Strategy · Tech industry
Before
“I’d been in the same role for 7 years. I knew I needed to leave but I kept telling myself ‘not yet.’ Not yet became 5 years of not yet.”
After 6 months
Left his job, launched an independent consultancy, landed his first two clients within 60 days. Reports sleeping better than he has in a decade.
James T.
Founder · Independent consultancy
Before
“My whole identity was ‘engineer at Google.’ When I got passed over for promotion I genuinely didn’t know who I was without that story.”
After 3 months
Rebuilt his sense of identity from the inside. Now leads a team he loves and has a life outside work for the first time in his adult life.
Marcus L.
Senior Engineer · Google
Before
“I was making more money than I ever dreamed of and completely miserable. I was too ashamed to tell anyone — it felt ungrateful to be unhappy.”
After 4 months
Gave herself permission to want something different. Now runs her own boutique practice, works 30 hours a week, and describes herself as “genuinely happy” for the first time.

FAQ
Answers to what most clients ask first
Don’t see your question? Reach out — we respond personally within one business day.
How does the coaching process work?
We begin with a free discovery call so we can assess fit and discuss what you’re hoping to work on. From there, you’ll choose a program, receive access to your dashboard, and book your first session. Sessions are held weekly or bi-weekly depending on your plan.
How do I book my sessions?
Sessions are booked directly through your AllCoach dashboard. Once you enroll, you’ll see an integrated calendar where you can select a time that works for you — no back-and-forth emails needed.
What are your qualifications?
I hold an MA in Clinical Psychology and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential (LMHC). I’m also a Professional Certified Coach through the ICF and have completed specialized training in trauma-informed care and the Gottman Method. I’ve been in practice for 12 years with over 1,200 clients.
Do you offer sliding-scale or reduced fees?
I keep a small number of sliding-scale spots for clients who need them. Reach out before enrolling and we’ll talk about it honestly — cost shouldn’t be the reason you don’t begin.
Is this therapy or coaching — and what’s the difference?
Both. Therapy focuses on healing — understanding and processing past experiences, mental health, and emotional regulation. Coaching focuses on growth — goals, habits, accountability, and forward movement. My programs blend both intentionally, depending on what you need most.
Ready When You Are
Begin something meaningful.
A single conversation is enough to know whether this is the right fit. There’s no pressure — only possibility.
