Finder: Sin-Eater #1

In "Salutation," Jaeger returns to Anvard after six months in the desert, carrying desert-found stones and forgotten credit cards—relics of a world long past. Struggling to find his place in a city ruled by rigid clan hierarchies, he’s met with indifference and tension, leading to a volatile clash in a dim-lit bar.

In "Emma," Jaeger finds himself entangled in the fragile, tense world of a family still reeling from past wounds, as Emma’s children—Lynne’s relentless curiosity, Marcie’s quiet fear, and the lingering shadow of her father’s abuse—force him to confront both his own mysterious healing and the fragile trust of those around him.

In "House of Pain," Jaeger wakes up disoriented in the city zoo, drawn into a world where pain is currency and memory is traded. He seeks answers from the Painwright, hoping to learn more about Emma—whose fear of her ex-husband’s return lingers like a shadow—before slipping into a risky car scam that tests his limits.

In "Brigham," Jo finds himself drawn into a tense web of deception when Jaeger delivers photos of the Grosvenors to him in Anvard, claiming to offer a lead on his family. With Lynne quietly monitoring every word, Jaeger’s offer of an address feels less like a clue and more like a carefully placed trap—its authenticity as uncertain as the loyalty of those involved.

In "null," Jaeger slips back into his old tricks, convincing people to pay him to destroy their belongings—only to vanish before the deed is done. After a tense meeting with Brigham, he picks up Rachel from school and takes her home, leaving the weight of his next move hanging in the air.

In "null," Jo recounts a haunting dream that lingers like a half-remembered song, while Jaeger checks in on her, caught between duty and quiet concern. As the household prepares for a move, tensions rise when a member of the Medawar clan confronts Rachel, demanding her family cease using the Grosvenor name—leaving the past and its weight hanging in the air.

In "null," Jo wanders the decaying cityscape, drawn to a false apartment that feels more real than the world outside. When Jaeger enlists friends to help the Grosvenors relocate, the sudden failure of an air-scrubber sends him into a reckless, feral moment amid the toxic haze.
