Summary
A love story featuring The Dark Urge and Alfira.
He is a trained killer who wakes up with no memory, a book containing the oaths and tenets of a paladin order, and an inescapable urge to indulge in violence and depravity. Yet he craves that which is most forbidden to him—genuine love and affection.
She is a refugee bard looking for a knight in shining armor to inspire and protect her. In her eyes, he is a hero—but what will she do when she learns the truth of what he really is?
All That Could Have Been is a remix of Baldur’s Gate 3, following the Dark Urge (Dirge) as he wrestles with a forgotten past and a blood-soaked present. When Alfira’s faith stirs a quiet rebellion in his fractured soul, it may be just enough to alter the fate of both a man and a world teetering on the brink of illithid enslavement.
