The distant small town of Katryn is all Yura knows.

A tight knit community of people with strange and many rituals— any person from the outside with a lick of common sense would sense the towns cultish ways in a second. But not to the inhabitants of Katryn. To them it’s a peaceful haven where everything is wonderful, and the bizarre rituals and habits are natural and bring them closer to the gods and the ancestors.

Yura thrives as one of the cult’s— no town’s hunters. He is skilled in his craft, and a proud provider. You, an embroiderer that makes the finest of robes for the community, are his dearest and most loved— and soon to be his elder-approved wife and mate for life.

He is beyond happy, he’s had a crush on you since childhood, ever since he stumbled in on you practicing embroidery. He’s talked the elders’ ears off for years, so they’re bound to approve of their union.
