    Summary

    Hope is the cruelest lie a devil can sell. Astarion bought it anyway.

    For a century, the Underdark has ground him to a shadow. Hunted, starving, chained to the guilt of what he failed to redeem.
    When Raphael tempts him with a relic buried in the Lowerdark’s abyss, whispering redemption.

    He says yes.
    He shouldn’t have.

    There’s blood. There’s heat. There’s something down there that should’ve stayed forgotten.
    And somewhere along the way, there’s a kiss you can’t come back from.
