Summary
Tav has had enough of her party's miserable disposition and decides something must be done about that! She had no idea how until Shadowheart reveals she doesn't remember playing school yard games when they find evidence drawn on the village ground as they take a short rest. Teaching Shadowheart how to play hopscotch is priority number 1—rescuing Halsin and finding the cure to their mindflayer tadpole affliction second. Shadowheart is less than enthused at the prospect of delaying their mission, but Tav knows she can help the amnesiac half-elf make some new memories. If they were going to die, after all, Tav needed one of Shadowheart's last moments to be this.

Summary
Some cities are built on faith.
Baldur’s Gate is built on the bones of those who lost it.When Tavora Riggis, disgraced investigative journalist, gets fired for speaking a little too much truth in the wrong conference room, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom. Two months of unpaid rent, a crumbling career, and one eviction notice later, Tav stumbles across a folder — a thread too tempting not to pull.
At the heart of Baldur’s Gate’s gleaming new "urban renewal" lies something rotten: a megachurch no one dares question, a string of missing women nobody is looking for, and a city government too complicit or too terrified to intervene.
Armed with nothing but a battered notepad, a grudge against authority, and an old ex who still might have her back, Tavora dives headfirst into a conspiracy that stretches farther — and strikes deeper — than she ever imagined.
The Church of Shar promises salvation.
Tavora’s just hoping to survive. Maybe she will find hope in one of the church's most devout followers. Maybe Shadowheart will be able to finally find salvation on the other side of all this with Tav's help. -

Summary
When Tav books a wine tasting for her best friend's wedding, she expects a quiet afternoon of vineyard tours and sampling flights. She doesn’t expect Shadowheart—the winery’s enigmatic proprietress—to turn the entire experience into something far more intimate. Between the dark elegance of the veranda, the endless roar of the falls, and wine that tastes like whispered confessions, Tav quickly realizes she’s in over her head. Some contracts are signed in ink. Others require far more convincing.

Summary
Captured by the Venatori and left to rot under the Blight’s slow embrace, Rook, a former Shadow Dragon, becomes the perfect canvas for Ghilan’nain’s divine re-creation. Twisted in both body and mind, she is reforged into something monstrous—a consort, a weapon, a believer. When she is unleashed upon the very people she once called family, the last remnants of who she was crumble to ash, leaving only devotion and ruin in her wake.

Summary
The goblin camp was defeated and the Tieflings were safe. But at the after-party, Tav hid away at the riverbank. She could not ignore the stinging of her back following the whipping she'd taken from the priest of Loviatar. She'd thought it would help to control her - satisfy her - by directing her murderous urges onto the one person who knew of them and who could consent: herself.
What she didn't expect was Shadowheart.

Summary
MIND THE TAGS. I am so serious. Open at your own risk.
