    Summary

    In which Tav believes the latest symptom of her grief is the hallucination of her lost love.

    Or, Gale finds himself unexpectedly resurrected.

    ------

    Gods, she hates him. Hates him bitterly for leaving her behind. And Gods, how she loves him, still. Enough to have dragged herself to Waterdeep, as per his wishes. Enough to have let Tara coddle her those first few days. Enough to have sobbed into Morena Dekarios’ waiting arms. Enough to speak to him every evening from the balcony he had promised they would share. Enough to have started reading each of his books, knowing his fingers had touched every page. Enough to imagine all the ways he might’ve reacted to the news of his impending fatherhood. The latter she lingers on more than she would like, for it only gives way to other, saccharine fantasies she knows will never come to fruition.

    Summary

    All Tavianna wanted was a romantic kiss picture in front of the Eiffel Tower with Wyll, the love of her life. Instead, Wyll runs off to Avernus just weeks before their wedding and Tav ends up on her non-refundable honeymoon alone. Good thing her old college friends, Gale and Astarion, are here to take her mind off things.

    Summary

    Dear Readers,

    I, Abbi, always believed alien abduction was plausibly real, but it was for other people. Maybe, aliens like abducting people who are mentally ill so it seemed like they are lying. Maybe, that's why I ended up on the nautiloid. Or maybe, I wasn't supposed to.

    Either way, whether by design or by accident, I got to see a world saved. Even if it was technically just a tiny corner of it and not even my own.

    Sometimes, it takes just a random group of people motivated to solve the same problem to make a difference, one step at a time. At the behest of my companions, I’m getting my adventure on paper. Sometimes the gods really are listening. And sometimes they're just cunts.

    Cheers to the Heroes of Baldur's Gate and, hopefully, we can get a more accurate retelling down since Volo's was — please, don't read it. We didn't have a dragon with us, just a dragonborn.

    (This is written as an imagining from 1st person POV of “Tav” and the companions writing down their journey of becoming the Heroes of Baldur’s Gate as submissions. Each chapter may contain differing voices (I.E. Astarion's and Abigail's) but they are separated into their own sections.)
