Summary
His presence feels like a balm to my soul, reminding me of how brave I am to let myself feel the burden of what we've had to go through, and what was yet to come. That I have nothing to be ashamed of. That he loves me.
***
Láraindil has been doing a great job keeping it together to lead this hopeless group of misfits through the Shadow-Cursed Lands only to be hit with one groundshaking revelation after the other.
As they continue their journey towards Baldur's Gate, the burden starts to weigh heavily on her as she has to come to terms with truth of the Dream Visitor, and the loss of the safe haven she once thought she had.
However, what she has lost within one, she may have gained within another.

Summary
But I realise now that it was because he truly didn't feel like he was worth my time without his powers—not worth my attention simply as himself. So, his mind has him running, crawling back to Mystra for more power … because of me.
***
Láraindil is at her wits' end with everyone pulling at her from different directions and all the difficult decisions to be made on their mission to defeat the Absolute.
In the mean time, her relationship with Gale progresses and she finds out that he talks in his sleep. The truth of his inner world devastates her and she is compelled to bring him comfort.

Summary
"We can talk about this after you've sobered up." He offers me a helping hand, but I smack it away with a grunt as I pull myself up from the floor with great difficulty. When I meet his gaze, he stands with his back straight, feet firmly on the floor, with a stoic expression on his face. He is offended. And I am triggered.
***
After his audience with Mystra at the Stormshore Tabernacle, Gale wants to reforge the Crown of Karsus and claim godhood and Láraindil is having none of it.
Failing to convince him to relinquish the idea, she decides to drink the discomfort away, until Gale finds her and there's nowhere for the angsty, sexual tension to go but through.

Summary
This morning, almost two months after the reunion party, I leave the tower before Gale awakes. It isn't the first time—I've made a habit of it since a few days past. I can't tell why I started doing it. I only know that it feels easier this way, almost like … an escape. And the more I reflected upon it, the worse I felt, so I've simply stopped thinking about it. Gale has made no remark.
***
Láraindil and Gale returns from the reunion party only for Gale to be thrown into his work at the Academy and for the city leadership of Waterdeep.
Unaccustomed to a life without the dangers of their old adventures, Lára struggles to find her place in their marriage and her new city, and is slowly drawing away from Gale to the wilderness outside the city.
A devastating misunderstanding exposes the unaddressed distance between them and threatens to ruin the relationship they fought so hard for.
