    Summary

    “For the crime of attempting to parlay, the hag has cursed me to fall prey to my most bestial urges. Either to secret myself to the woods and there lose my mind, or else to succumb to overwhelming desire for the first creature to touch me. It is why…” Here, a spark of Xenk’s old self-righteousness flares in his eyes. “...I begged you not to touch me. And now here we are.”

    “In my defense, you weren’t really coherent,” Ed says weakly.

    Three months after the defeat of Sofina, Xenk shows up on Ed's new doorstep needing help with a very specific curse.

    Summary

    Ed leaned forward and put his head in his hands. “This is ridiculous. You know that, right?”

    “Eh, I think you’ve done weirder things.”

    “Weirder than marrying a paladin and infiltrating a cult together?”

    Holga shrugged. “You’ve done a lot of weird things. Don’t make me list them all.”

    or: xenk needs edgin's help to take down a cult. absolutely nothing can go wrong. right?

    Summary

    There comes a day in every man's life when he has to look at the circumstances of his existence and decide whether he wants to keep fighting.

    For Ed, that day comes when the frost giants attack Bryn Shander.

    "We are getting the fuck out of Ten Towns," he tells Holga.

    When frost giants attack the city of Bryn Shander in 1491, Ed and Holga make the decision to take Kira and make the perilous journey south to Mornbryn's Shield, where they hope to start a new life away from the unpredictable Ten Towns and the memory of Edgin's wife. Along the way they meet a paladin of Ilmater who agrees to escort them as far as Mirabar, setting off a chain of events that will have Ed questioning his beliefs, evaluating his relationship with his daughter, and perhaps even let him heal enough to finally find happiness again.
