    Summary

    A year has passed since Tav and her companions defeated the Netherbrain. Starting a new life in Waterdeep with Gale, Tav tries to move forward with her partner. Unfortunately, her decision to help ascend Astarion during their adventure has plagued her with remorse, haunting her almost every night.

    Little does she know, her ex-lover feels trapped in the past as well. Tav had ended their fling with compassionate intent, thinking he needed a friend and not a lover. In his ascended form, Astarion sees the world plainly: You either want him, fear him, or are mocking him. His resentment and sense of humiliation festers into something unbearable as he imagines Tav's perfect life with her new lover. He decides to take back what he sees as his...

    Summary

    You stopped Astarion from ascending, but cruelly he left you. Now you're a shadow of yourself, unmoored by grief and unsure what comes next.

    That is until Gale arrives with a proposition: Join him in his quest to find the Ring of the Sunwalker.

    Why should you risk yourself again for the man who told you he didn't want you?

    Summary

    It’s been two days since she last saw him. She pictured their victory differently. She thought that there would surely come a moment where she could lean over to him and quietly say it. Perhaps when they were walking down the street, on the way to celebrate their victory. A moment of mundanity, where she could finally realise that there was nothing more to overcome; that they had made it to the other side.

    Instead she watched him fleeing into the shadows, skin already seared from the morning sun.

    Summary

    14 months ago, Peregrin ‘Pippin’ Murphy had a psychotic break with reality.

    She remembers herself ripped from reality by a tentacled vessel, then being infected with a squirming tadpole by a squid-faced abomination. She remembers going on a grand adventure in a fantasy world where she served justice, made friends and fell in love. She remembers entire months of this, but was only gone for weeks. Whatever Pippin was really up to during the weeks she was missing is a mystery, what she does remember she now knows to be false.

    A year since Pippins’ return to her own mind and she’s getting better. The authorities found her on the side of a highway, far from the city where she lived, the victim of a hit-and-run. The blow to her head seems to have actually helped her; she knows what reality is now. Pippin is determined to make the most of her return to the real world. She dutifully takes her medication, attends group and private sessions. She follows her doctor's orders.

    This weekend, she has been granted an overnight pass. Her first since the break. Her father is coming to collect her and bring her home for a visit.

    Or is he?

    Someone has come to collect her, anyway.

    It’s time Pippin went home.

    Summary

    Wyll had never been good at wanting things. It always came with a tremendous amount of guilt that almost made the things he wanted no longer worth it. But even with the guilt, his heart had never ceased its dreadful longing, and that had only grown the longer Wyll spent away from Astarion. Now that he was here, sitting in front of Wyll and smiling as though no time had passed at all, Wyll’s heart wanted nothing more than to rip itself from his chest and take permanent residence in Astarion’s hands.

    Instead, Wyll hid the nervous clearing of his throat behind the sound of the tap water, and hung the rag over the side of the basin to dry. He turned back to Astarion, resuming his professionalism.

    “What can I get you, my friend?” he asked.

    ~

    It's been a year since they defeated the Netherbrain, and Wyll has made a life for himself out in the wilds of the Sword Coast. When Winter comes, and Wyll sequesters within a tavern inn, he's joined by an old friend who hasn't left his mind - or his heart - even after all this time.

    Summary

    When Shadowheart first found herself in the Nautiloid, she had been certain that everything was lost. She was either going to be killed by Mindflayers, get turned into one or manage to escape and die in the process of trying to reach the Gate. What she hadn’t expected was a fiery red tiefling to pry her pod open and rescue her. That was the day she met Karlach.

    Summary

    Lethe has saved the day, saved their friends, and saved themselves from Bhaal. You know what they say about all good things...

    "“Are you well, my friend? You seem... distracted.” He huffed a laugh. “Though after the day we've had, that's more than understandable.”

    Lethe almost laughed as they considered how to answer. “Mmm, I-” They had started to speak when there was a sharp movement to their left. Time seemed to stick as they went to cover Halsin’s unguarded flank.

    It was just two dogs, playing with a tentacle in an odd game of tug. Unfortunately, by the time they registered what was happening they were already tripping over their tired feet. Lethe tried to catch themselves to no avail. Their right hand landed poorly first, then their head met the pavement. Hard."

    OR: A Bhaalspawn's past catches up with them. And so does copious amounts of brain damage. A look at remembering things once lost, and dealing with losing the control we once had.

    Summary

    A Bhaalspawn reflects on her life as it comes to a close.

    Or, sometimes it's not hard to make the right decision. Sometimes the hard part is understanding the consequences. It's the end of the world and sacrifices are both many and necessary. She is the hero, willing to pay any price. That's her role.
