Summary
Saphyra's Story / Part 1
"Make friends, find love. Find your place in this world and make yourself at home."
"Over time, you will become part of the process and if you are not careful, you will succumb to the pull of the stream. Every success will take away a piece of your inhibition, which provides the confidence you need, but also poses a risk you must not underestimate. Much like selfishness, depravity knows no end, either. The only way to withstand and overcome is by learning to control yourself."
A pact signed in blood, a bond forged through pain. A blade to split them apart, a mask to hide they were yet two. When a bad day led to a life-changing decision, another player was added to their game.
[Patch Notes 1.27: fixed a few minor logical errors in the Interrogation Arc and the recap on Kaiden in the last chapter. Writer's block is one hell of a curse.]

The Zhentarim agent Davil Starsong is stuck on a row boat with a high priest of the Maiden of Pain.

However, the agent is understandably distressed by the high priest’s presence, despite or perhaps because of his unfittingly amicable nature.

Summary
Igarithus's Story / Part 1
A Tiefling, born into slavery, was freed by a possessed Halfling jester, who took him along on his journey around the worlds and beyond, but they weren't just adventuring. What purpose did he serve in this world? They travelled, and he got to see the life outside of a cage, he got to learn and experience, for one day, he would be given a task that was meant to either be the glue in the crack, or the force that pries it apart. And when the world was coming to an end, even the most powerful alliances needed another player in their game.
Contains traces of nuts and soy.
Will eventually rewrite this one and flesh it out a little more. Since it's one of my earliest works written in English, it needs refining.
