    Summary

    Before the orb, before the fall, Gale was Mystra's perfect Chosen, until Lyanna Harken pulled him from the depths and breathed life back into his lungs. Unbidden. Unwanted. Unforgettable.

    In the floating city of Sharn, his divine mission to recover a Netherese tome collides with her desperate search for the Whispering Blades. She offers chaos where he craves control. He promises order where she needs freedom. Neither expected to matter.

    Pride goeth before a fall, but no one warns you how intoxicating the view from the edge can be.

    Side B:
    Lyanna Harken’s just a wanderer trying to find her late mentor’s legacy. She didn't sign up for drowning wizards, divine politics, or the way Mystra's Chosen looks at her like she's both salvation and damnation. Should've known better than to strike a deal with someone who thinks breathing is a debt to be repaid.
