    Summary

    Days don't exist in the land of shadow. With Shar's curse sinking it's cold fingers deep into the land, Vale no longer tracks the time. And yet, he is keenly aware that the hours he spends asleep are growing fewer as the visions he faces are starting to feel less like hyper-violent nightmares and more like returning memories. Staying awake is hardly a better alternative, as the ruins in this desolate land somehow feel familiar and the ever-present Dark Urge continues to whisper in his mind. Even so, he will not waver in his promise to cure his friends of their parasites nor his vow to Astarion to free him from Cazador's control forever. When it's all over, he will finally rest.

    For one glorious month, Astarion had the sun. Cast back into the dark, Shar's curse is cold and maddening. Nevertheless, Astarion holds fast to his sanity, knowing what lies at the end of this journey. Every day passed is another step closer to the cure. Every day passed is a step closer to Baldur's Gate and to exacting his bloody revenge on his vampiric master. And every day, Vale proves he is true to his promise to do anything to help Astarion. It's strange, but even in the cold shadows, being with Vale still feels warm.

    Summary

    The Warrant of Trade has fallen in the hands of a Primaris Psyker. Truthfully, not a single soul in the Koronus Expanse is especially happy about this development - not the other Dynasties, not the Ecclesiarchy, not a single branch of Adeptus Administratum, and the Inquisition most certainly least of all.

    She is a sanctioned weapon of war given ultimate freedom through the Bloody signature of the God-Emperor himself. He is a sanctioned highly specialized tool with a long leash, a demanding Master, and an impossible mission. Both have forgotten what it is like to feel like a human.

    For the newly minted Rogue Trader, Morana ‘Mora’ von Valancius, a chance to remember was offered in the form of the highest form of a failing protectorate and the only kind of true freedom a human is able to achieve in the failing Imperium. For Heinrix van Calox… it could be following the now unchecked, unmonitored weapon of war into the corrupted depths of the Koronus Expanse to see his mission through.

    “You want to surf?”

    Elliott’s face turns pink. “I would like to watch you… surf. I’m considering a sea planet for the sci-fi aspect and I think it might be inspiring."

    "Listen, I have no problem with you watching," Tal says. "But I think you might have a better time out there."
