S1E8 - Story 4, Part 2: When the One You Fear is the One You Love

A collection of stand-alone fantasy audio stories about Helena, a woman who exorcises people of demons by drawing the demons out of their bodies into hers. She stumbled into this line of work by a botched exorcism she endured as a child which permanently marked her with a tattoo that forces demons to take her instead of other victims. To survive, she learned how to defeat demons in their inner world, their second consciousness, with magic powers that only exist there. However, she is powerless to control her own body in the outer world while possessed.

She is often helped by Martzia, a charismatic licensed exorcist who finds clients, handles the money, and comforts victims, and Bridgette, a former soldier and demon slayer, who protects Helana from herself and makes sure she doesn’t hurt anyone else. Occasionally, Simon, a healer mage given his powers by a mysterious god, also helps out.

These stories explore various parts of Helena’s life and her effect on others. Most stories span multiple episodes but otherwise are independent narratives. There is some narration by Helena or other’s depending on the story, and they are not chronological order. Content warnings include: violence, blood, gore, talk of suicidal thoughts, and some transphobia.
