Summary
Afterwards, Astarion wasn't sure who voiced the idea first.
“We should make a tradition out of this gathering!”
It spread like wildfire. Wherever he looked, cups were being raised in enthusiastic agreement.Astarion has been leading the spawn in the Underdark, while Halsin has been taking care of the newly founded community in Reithwin. Six months after the defeat of the Elder Brain, they meet again at Withers' reunion party, where everyone decides to make a yearly event out of it.
One year later, Astarion is still struggling with finding his place in the world, and doesn't know if he should attend at all.- Language:

Summary
Raphael’s smile widens. They both know he works best when there is no time to think. “Salvation! Yes, I believe I do have salvation in hand,” Raphael says. He sinks down into a squat, reaching out to pinch Astarion’s cheek. He snarls and swats the devil’s hand away. “Safety from your master, in exchange for your service.”
Service. Astarion’s mind whirs, his thoughts rampaging through his head far too quickly. “What kind of service?”
~
Although the Absolute has fallen, not all of the world's saviours are enjoying the aftermath. With Cazador left alive, Astarion has no choice but to return to the shadows, trying to escape the cruel clutches of his master. Raphael takes notice.
A kidnap/rescue story in which Astarion yearns for a hero, and eventually gets one.

Summary
The others have their own sordid pasts, to be sure, but it's different for Astarion. Being a monster is one thing. Being a monstrous, pathetic, conniving, little whore is entirely another.
There’s no cure for being owned by Cazador Szarr. There’s no fixing what Astarion is. He'd have to be crazy to believe otherwise.

Summary
It was the smallest he had ever looked to Astarion, but there was no comfort to be found in it. Astarion thought he had seen every twisted mask that face was capable of – from sadistic pleasure to bored detachment and everything in between – but he was wrong. The icy hatred in Cazador’s eyes was a novelty that chilled Astarion to his core, and he knew his master would not rest until he made his creation regret the day it stepped out of line.
Astarion and his companions prevented Cazador from completing the Ascension, but his former master escaped before they could strike a killing blow. Now, in the wake of the Absolute's defeat, Astarion has no choice but to wait and see what form Cazador's revenge might take.
