Five years after abandoning Toji and their infant son, Y/N suddenly reappears through an unexpected money transfer from overseas. Toji has spent years raising Megumi alone, and he wants nothing from the woman who left them. But Y/N isn’t just sending money. She’s coming back.
There was no crypt on the church blueprints. There shouldn’t have been a man chained beneath the altar, either. Sylus warns Y/n to leave him there. She frees him instead. By morning, he’s gone, the seals are broken, and something ancient has followed her home.
Y/n has always loved conventions, cosplay, and the embarrassing freedom of getting completely absorbed in fictional worlds, but lately attending them has become less fun. Most of her friends have partners now, and what used to be chaotic weekends spent running around conventions together has slowly turned into Y/n tagging along behind couples. When another major convention comes around, she decides she would rather do something ridiculous than spend three days feeling like everyone’s extra friend.
