Summary
The Rite of Profane Ascension gave unimaginable power to Astarion, but it was just the first step to his consolidation of power, a step into a bold new future. As the Vampire Ascendant, Astarion is the pinnacle of undead power on Toril, but there is much to be done before he is the true vampiric master of the realm.
And Astarion is not alone. Eternally alongside him is his dark consort, the one woman who knew him before he became the vampire lord of Baldur's Gate. Zhivraelle Starsong, before he ascended, before he even was freed from the clutches of his sadistic master, Cazador by the whims of fate. Once no more than a pawn in the twisted machinations of the noble Starsong household, Zhivraelle knew the spawn and the man before he became the Vampire Ascendant, and the two stood by one another's sides throughout the Absolute Crisis that nearly brought the Sword Coast to its knees.
Nothing has changed the pair's devotion for one another in the centuries that followed.
This anthology chronicles a number of vignettes and scenes from the lives of Astarion and Zhivraelle ranging from years before to after the game.
