Summary
Gale and Tav Dekarios have started a life together in Waterdeep, trying to put the difficulties of the past behind them. While Gale wrestles with trying to protect his wife from her past and the ambitions of other wizards, Tav is struggling to put her past behind her enough to adjust to normalcy.
However, the past has a funny way of coming back to haunt you, because the powerful dead don't tend to stay that way. And there's one body they never had the chance to destroy: Enver Gortash.
And that's just the beginning of their troubles...Because the threat of relapse is nipping at Tav's heels.
-------
Sequel to "Don't Let Me Kill You". Though this is series part 2, you don't have to read part 1!
The Dark Urge is named Tavrin, a Drow Rogue.
Lots of research on Forgotten Realms lore went into building this story, so expect lore that wasn't in the BG3 game.Durgetash is a past relationship, so those scenes are flashbacks starting around chapter 9ish. So if you're not here for that (or, if that's all you're here for lol) they will be marked with *** at start and end in the relevant chapters.
