    Summary

    Ever since I moved to the Northern District and became a Special Enforcer, I've been trying to find Sylus again--the career assassin who took me under his wing and taught me everything I know, before suddenly vanishing three years ago.

    But my leads have run cold, and just as I'm planning on leaving the city, he suddenly reappears in my life. He's at the center of a tangled web--there's the Praedator virus that turns humans into ravenous monsters, the mysterious biotech company Ever that's behind it, the corrupt mayor, the frontrunner who's just been attacked by a SSS-Class Praedator, Tartarus...

    I search relentlessly for answers, especially to the most important question: Is my old mentor now a friend or foe?

    ***
    This work expands heavily upon Sylus x MC in the Tomorrow's Catch 22 / Savage Overture official alternate universe, including details from both the Innocent Birdcage memoria and in-game event. It probably stands alone decently (as it includes a recap of the memoria's events) but it's definitely best alongside the memory.

    Expect indulgent, primal smut and a lot of flashbacks to fill in the blanks of the canon story.
