   Summary

   Three centuries after her quiet departure, the only thing Astarion cannot command is the absence she left behind.
   This is the story of what power cannot touch.
   Of the woman who chose herself, and what that choice cost them both.

   This is a story with realistic (mild) exploration of what it's like being Ascended Astarion's most loved consort. What happens when humanity is forgotten and replaced with power.
