Book One: Dawn by OptimisticGrey
Fandoms: Baldur's Gate (Video Games), Forgotten Realms (Roleplaying Game)

Summary
Born beneath whispers and raised on suspicion, The Dark Urge learned early that love is often optional in a cruel world—and that survival, more often than not, demands something sharper than wit.
Long before she was ever named the Savior of Baldur’s Gate, she was a cursed child: feared by those around her, rejected by the one meant to protect her, and stalked by a hunger she could neither name nor master.
In the years that followed, The Dark Urge became many things—some chosen, some forced upon her: prodigy, exile, weapon, thief, lover, hero. She walked the fragile line between salvation and ruin, fought battles both divine and personal.
And beneath it all, constant and unyielding, was the truth of her making.Series

Summary
In an alternate Faerûn shaped by manners, marriages, and magic, the estate of Dweomerheart stands at the center of whispered longing and political expectation. With the Dowager Duchess Mystra in retreat and her power waning, her heir—Mr. Gale Dekarios—is summoned home to fulfill his noble duty: marry wisely, and magically.
Into this courtly crucible step the Demaris sisters:
Lily, radiant and cunning, determined to restore their fortunes through charm and ambition.
Celeste, the irreverent youngest, whose wild magic defies convention and corsetry alike.
Seraphina, the overlooked middle sister, who harbors a magic so volatile it hums beneath her silence.As the Season begins and the Spring Ball approaches, suitors and secrets collide. Mr. Astarion Ancunín turns his eye to Lily—for amusement, or something darker. Captain Sir Wyll Ravengard finds himself entangled in Celeste’s mischief. And Gale’s ordered world is undone by Seraphina’s quiet defiance.
But Dweomerheart harbors ancient pacts—infernal, fey, and forgotten. A curse stirs. A hidden heirloom whispers. Every glance is a question, every spell a risk.
Love is not merely sentiment—it is strategy, sorcery, and sometimes… salvation.Series
