   Summary

   Percy’s made a lifetime of mistakes, so many he can’t even remember all of them. This one, though, watching Vex fall in that tomb - this one will be engraved in his mind forever. With such a terrible track record, it’s a wonder his friends still keep him around. Maybe they shouldn’t. Maybe he should take himself and his mistakes far, far away from Vox Machina, from Vex.

   But with the Chroma Conclave tearing across Tal’Dorei, they need every fighter they can get. Is the potential of hurting his friends by staying worth the risk of hurting them by leaving? He can’t protect them if he’s not with them.

   Not unless he starts killing the dragons for them, that is.
