There are things you don’t talk about at The Last Home.
  You don’t ask about the soup. You don’t stare at the painting on the third stair. And you definitely don’t mention the Kraken Incident.
  Not unless you want awkward silences, haunted stares, and a lecture from Freya about “weaponised swimwear protocol.”
  No one agrees on what really happened. Some say it was a summoning gone wrong. Others blame Sylvie, glitter, and “consensual eldritch flirtation.” There’s a rumour about cursed seafood. And at least three witnesses insist it started with a crab.
  All anyone knows is this: It was wet. It was loud. And it ended with Lars—Dad—personally dragging the Maids home through a door that should never open.
  Now they’re back. Soaked. Slightly slimy. Suspiciously quiet. And standing in the taproom, trying to explain themselves.
  This volume is that explanation.
  Welcome to Volume One of Legendary Maids: That Time Rika Unleashed the Kraken and Destroyed a Coastline. They’ve saved the world before. They just don’t remember if they meant to.
