    Summary

    With the Netherbrain, and all but the last of her sins, laid to rest, the Dark Urge seeks to atone by throwing herself at the mercy of the citizens of the Gate.

    She has forgotten that truth is only one of the currencies in the games played by rulers of men.

    Archduke Gortash takes it upon himself to remind her.

    I'm playing a Paladin who let Gortash become the Archduke and immediately after my Paladin's Oath was broken.
    My Paladin did not take that well. I just... had to write it. And a manipulative Gortash, too.

    Summary

    There was much to celebrate after defeating the Netherbrain and saving the City from the Cult of the Absolute. However, the victory was tainted with a sour taste.

    Despite having conducted a fruitful and genuine alliance as equals, the newly-appointed Archduke - Enver Gortash - did not survive the encounter with the Elder Brain.

    No redemption from all the evil he has done.
    No reward from all the suffering that led him to make every decision.

    After making sure that all the former companions had departed for their new destination, the Hero of Baldur's Gate asks for help from a trusted friend who, unable to help due to the lack of the ‘free and willing soul’ condition, clues her in on how she might carry out her plan.

    Perhaps the Wheel of Fate will forge ahead…

    Summary

    “What harm can come of humoring the man a bit and see how it all turns out?”

    Born a Seldarine Drow and cleric of the Godess Eilistraee, Elaine is used to making unlikely allies. So when she and her companions arrive in Baldur’s Gate and are invited to the proclamation of a certain Archduke-elect Enver Gortash, she isn’t opposed to hear him out when he proposes an alliance to defeat Orin.

    Against the warnings of her companions, she agrees to a pact between the two of them, set on disposing of him after her friends have found a way to disable the tyrant’s Steel Watch. But as she spends more time with her new ally, she slowly begins to waver. Maybe their alliance doesn’t have to break… maybe there is still a way to steal Enver’s soul back from Bane and Raphael…

    Summary

    Tav woke up in an unfamiliar bed, with a bad headache and a bed companion in the shape of an archduke. Unfortunately for Tav, her memories were quite muddled. So when the lump next to her called her "wife", she may have been more than a little bit freaked out.

    Or,

    Enver Gortash woke up to find his wife trying to kill him. Again. This was all very inconvenient.

    ~~~

    A story of love, one might say. But not these two. No, these two would say that their story was built upon death threats and late night barrelmancy negotiations, and Disintegration spells that missed and the Power Word Kill that didn't. Love was only the ambush Gortash walked into once, and Tav walked into twice.

    Summary

    “Despite you not perceiving it, he’s obviously come to care for you deeply. As far as if he has realized it himself, I am not sure. Even if he had, I doubt he would truly admit it to himself, let alone you or anyone else here,” Gale muses, letting out a laugh as he speaks. Imogen shakes her head in response, unable to really believe what the wizard is saying.

    “I doubt that. He was probably just trying to make sure he didn’t lose an ally, gods know we need all of the ones we can get,” she says, nodding her head as if agreeing with herself. That had to be it, that was what made sense. After all, he’d only ever shown that type of interest in her when he thought that he owed her that for her kindness. It had never been real when he had tried to connect with her on that level. Not that she blamed him, it’s what he’d grown accustomed to. He didn't know how else to repay a kindness or favor, those concepts likely having been lost to time centuries ago.

    Summary

    “Did it ever occur to you that maybe I slept with Haarlep for more than information?” Edonya asked, glaring up at him, shaking her head from the memory that Astarion had accidentally conjured between the two. Grief. He saw it. He felt it. Her grief felt similar to the gnawing in his own chest…but he wasn’t…he shouldn’t grieve, he…No. Astarion’s jaw clenched. He was a powerful vampire now. He shouldn’t feel anything. Edonya didn’t try to push him any further. Her fingers lingered on his chest. “Maybe I slept with Haarlep out of curiosity. Maybe it was just for fun. Maybe it was just to get back at you for being the biggest, most detestable piece of shit I have ever—” Astarion had enough. His hand curled around her throat quickly as he kissed her roughly.

    “Little love, you speak too much.” Astarion growled in a husky tone, barely pulling away from her lips as he spoke.

    Summary

    She wraps her arms around him and lets him complete his checks, and when he pulls back to look into her face, she’s giving him the smile she reserves only for when she’s about to say something completely saccharine and embarrassing.

    “Whatever you’re thinking darling, don’t say it.”

    “You are so unbearably sweet sometimes.”

    If Astarion could blush, he would. Since he can’t, he puts on his most pompous and condescending look and stares down his nose at her in clear disdain.

    “You, my love, are brain-damaged.”

    Astarion and Tav are travelling Faerûn to find a way for him to walk in the sun, but Astarion is still struggling to discover who he is, and when Tav is stolen away from him in the worst way possible he must turn to his old companions for help
