Summary
“She’d thought it would be different now. That the fear haunting her would fade along with her humanity. That hunger would bring clarity. Power. Certainty.
And yet, here she was. Still hiding.
Always hiding.”
A few months. That was all it took to turn from saviour to fugitive, hero to villain. Tav is trapped between two worlds—no longer fully human, but not yet the illithid she was meant to become.
Not that it matters. The city she died for now speaks her name in fear, hunting what’s left of the illithid with Tav as the grand prize.
Defeat seems certain. Surrender, inevitable.
…That is, until a former ally finds her—and, against all odds, chooses mercy.
In that moment, Tav sees the truth she hadn’t been prepared to admit: survival won’t come from goodness or secrecy. It will take help. Rolan’s help.
If he’s even willing to give it.
