    Summary

    Journey through Eskel's history as he struggles to figure out who he is, what he likes, and who he might love:
    It started innocuously enough, huddled together facing the fire, Eskel’s bulkier body playing big spoon to Geralt’s lither frame. At sixteen years old with no real experience to speak of outside of his hand Eskel was startled to find his body reacting in ways he never realized it could to another man.
    And that was how it started. If Eskel looked back seventy-odd years later, and tried to lay a finger on it, he would have said it was that hunt that opened his eyes to the fact that his tastes might not run the same as everyone else. He had felt off kilter at the revelation like he’d suddenly realized he didn’t fit in the world in yet another way. It would take him years, decades to find his center again.
    CH. 22:
    “I missed this, but most of all I missed you.” The words were somewhere in the middle of relieved and painful and Eskel closed his eyes against the sound.
