Hey, travelers… this one’s personal.

In this episode, I finally made a choice I told myself I wouldn’t: I brought Demonia into the Sanctuary.

After what we survived in Ditchmire Hollow—and after facing the ink-stained truth behind the name Tasselgrave—I couldn’t leave him out there. Not with something like the Liekeeper watching us now.

But bringing a Glyph born of vengeance and stitched in blood into my home? Yeah... it didn’t go over well.

Zena was furious. Luna said I wasn’t just collecting strays anymore—I was building something. And maybe she’s right. Maybe it’s not about containing Glyphs anymore. Maybe it’s about understanding them.

Because that night… Demonia didn’t stand guard. He didn’t hunt.

He crawled into my bed and lay beside me.

No words. No threats.
