Summary
What in the hells am I doing?
Gale had asked himself that question many, many times over the years, but it had never seemed as relevant as it did right then.
He was a god, for crying out loud.
And yet.
He was on his knees in front of Minthara, of all people. He wasn’t even sure how this had happened exactly. One minute they’d been at the reunion, chatting and conversing with their old friends, and the next Minthara had been leaning in, purring in his ear.
“Power suits you, Dekarios,” she’d whispered, her breath hot against his skin. “This glow…” She ran a hand across the exposed portion of his chest. “Beautiful.”

Summary
"The shadowed sun shall wed broken dusk,
The Weaves shall fray, the gods shall rust.
Through strife and love, all realmspace to save—
The eclipse endures, though all else may fade.So sayeth the wise Alaundo."
---
First, there was Ves—a half-drow bard hopelessly in love with Gale Dekarios, the wizard from Waterdeep. Their bond, born of shared trials across the Sword Coast, was unbreakable. So deeply did Ves love Gale that he sacrificed everything, even his mortal life, to remain by his side.
Now, as Moonshadow, God of the Eclipse, he is Gale’s divine partner, yet feels like a shadow in the path of Gale’s relentless ambition. Ascension has become a burden, and Moonshadow longs for the simplicity of his mortal life—of simply being Ves, Gale’s lover, free of celestial duties.
A long overdue promise to revisit Faerûn stirs those old desires, making Moonshadow yearn for a life he can never reclaim.
NB: Chapters names marked with * have an optional, expanded NSFW version on my pseud (heartsong94).

Summary
"If I salvage the stones, I can reforge it."
She turned away from the Chionthar to find Gale's back. At first his head was tipped forward, like he was deep in his own thoughts, but he lifted it. He turned away and looked out—to the smoldering edges of Baldur's Gate. The fires and sunset brought out the silver in his hair, the light flecks in his eyes.
"The power of Karsus would be in my hands," Gale spoke, his voice a wisp of itself. Ahlys had heard the same tone in the bowels of Moonrise as he first laid eyes on the Crown. She'd also heard it on a lake made of nebulae, spoken with reverence when he told her she put the stars to shame.
He started to walk away, deeper into the port, and Ahlys was still trying to think.
"But what then?"
She floated, drifted closer to him helplessly. A moon caught in his orbit.

Summary
A year after the fall of the Absolute, God of Ambition Gale visits Freya—his former companion, now blind and hollow, a far cry from the fiery cleric she once was. Once a devoted servant of the divine, Freya’s faith shattered when her god abandoned her, her brother died, and the one she loved used her. She stopped believing. She burned her oath. And Gale—quiet, patient, watching—never spoke the truth of his feelings. Astarion did, and swept her away... until he didn’t. Now, years later, Freya kneels once more—not to a god she once served, but to the one who always stood beside her. Can the cycle be undone?

Summary

Summary: Picking up after Path 3, the reader follows Dekarios the Divine in his ascension and experience as a God. Angst, fluff, God Gale content ahead.

Summary
What if Astarion, grieving and haunted by the passage of time, became the first worshipper of the newly ascended God of Ambition, Gale, in a strange bid for connection, purpose, and perhaps just a little bit of chaos?
If you like…
- Immortal Angst Meets Divine Snark: Dive into themes of mortality, faith, creativity, and legacy as Astarion and Gale redefine what it means to live forever.
- Found Family and Bittersweet Farewells: Witness the final legacy of the Baldur’s Gate 3 party as their lives intertwine, grow, and fade, leaving Astarion to grapple with what it means to endure.
- Wit and Whimsy with a Hefty Dose of Heartache: Almost everyone dies, but we can laugh about it.
…this fic is for you!Canon-Caveat: This story happens post-canon and I think is mostly plausible as a canon follow-on, with the exception that I'm ignoring the implications from the epilogue that Gale's worship is springing up organically around Faerun.

Summary
Everything is still how it's supposed to be, Geralt can't sleep and Jaskier being chatty and Geralt says "It's like ordering a pie and finding it has no filling," and then the Djinn. But instead of finding the scary, powerful yet also beautiful Yennefer, someone else was there to help Jaskier from the Djinn. Someone from another world, someone who is, too, powerful and magical, and different from everyone and everything else from the Continent.
"You know, Geralt, you could take her up there." Geralt grunted at the brunette opposite him, with a cut on his lip and his cheek swollen. "Fuck. You sure the witch is just a sorceress?"
"Hm. Also a bard. She says."
"A- Geralt, you're fucking with me."
"No."
"So you're a bard hoarder now?""Is it true Witchers are…unable to have children? Yen told me this when she scolded me for wanting to keep you and Jaskier around."
“Yes. It is.”
Echo pouts. “That's a shame. Not that pregnancy is fun but…hmm.”Series
