    Bookmarker's Notes

    Korvikoum means 'choices and consequences.' It's simple, really. The fate has twists and turns, the gods are fickle, and things happen whether you want them or not. But in the end it's just you with the circumstances, and only you decide how to deal with them. This is the choices part. Making a choice is a duty, a part of life and an honour. Dead don't choose. Slaves don't choose. So, if you are to make a choice, you must be able to accept the consequences. That's it, that is the korvikoum.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "Lae'zel said that Shadowheart was like a dagger — unassuming, sharp, flexible, and still deadly if you were not cautious. Now, the gith's calloused hand wield Nocturne like a dagger, touch her like she's trying to parry, like they are locked in a duel. Nocturne wonders what happened between them, while Shadowheart was gone. What wounds Lae'zel is trying to avenge.

    She weaves her fingers through Nocturne's hair and pulls, then bites and kisses at the exposed neck.

    Shadowheart Nocturne knew was sharp plenty, but Nocturne would rather compare her to a shield. Strong, unbending and battered. Again and again she saw Shadowheart's back as she stepped in front of her, put herself between Nocturne and the world. "

    Summary

    “Lorroakan is unworthy of you,” he says. Rolan sneers, but for once, he doesn’t fight him on the point. “He’s a brute, and a coward.”

    Gale allows himself a smirk, just a small one. “And tomorrow, we’re going to kill him.”

    His golden eyes blow wide for a moment. Then, of all things—he laughs. Bitter, ugly, heavy.

    "No, you're not.”

    In which one touch-starved wizard meets one sardonic, yearning wizard and they finally stop dancing around each other after murdering a different wizard. Get loved, idiots.

    “You see?” he breathes. “Always lying by omission, these wizards one meets in taverns.”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "His mouth pressed into hers, tasting of relief, promises unspoken, every moment they had just shared without words. Her lips parted under his, and it was like breathing each other in, each inhale carrying the faintest trace of conjured starlight. She could taste the faint sweetness of tea from the little shop he’d spoken of, smell the phantom paper-dust of that Waterdeep bookshop. She saw flashes of streets and the city’s pulse, not as a place apart from her, but as though she had walked it beside him all her life.

    The world she’d once thought belonged only to him – that glittering, unreachable life she could never quite picture herself in – now felt like hers, too, stitched into her as surely as the memories of battle and road-dust. In that moment, it wasn’t just his life anymore…it was theirs."

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "The vehemence in Tate's voice was startling. She waited for him to elaborate, but he did not. Small hands were balled into shaking fists at his sides, his usual melancholic demeanor hidden behind a scowl as he raised his chin in defiance. It was as if he thought Jaheira would be angry that he found comfort in the news, and it made her heart ache more than the realization that she seemed destined to lead the funeral procession for everyone she's ever loved."

    ----------

    "Jaheira wasn't quite sure whether the gleam in Fig's eye was in anticipation of eating cake or of playing with a knife."
