    Summary

    When Astarion comes to in the glaring brightness of the midday sun, he thinks he's died for the second time. Or perhaps it's an illusion. A hallucination.

    But no, it's none of that. The world has simply gone mad. The old rules are gone, new ones have been slapped on instead, and no one has bothered to explain anything to him.

    Before Astarion has time to process any of this, he's thrown into adventure with a bunch of strangers – emphasis on strange. But it's all right. He'll survive. He always does, whatever it takes.

    Summary

    She smiled sweetly at him. “Still not happy about travelling with a pig?”

    “No, no.” He assured her, relaxing a modicum once his dagger was safely sheathed at his hip. “The pig is great. A blood-thirsty, monster-stomping pig. She’s darling, let’s keep her.”

    Since she was a child, Shay's increasingly less-than-idyllic life in Baldur's Gate was haunted by a pale, red-eyed stranger lurking in the shadows. When she found the very same man on a beach, drenched in sunlight and infected with the same parasite that now wriggled in her own brain, she was forced to set aside her dreams of vengeance in hopes of surviving another day. They did survive – not just the next day but for many more after – forging an alliance that forced Shay to confront the possibility that there was more to the man than she thought.

    Summary

    Complete as of September 21, 2025! ❤️


    Astarion straightened, a half grin on his lips now.

    “Yes, I would assume you don’t usually make a habit of leaping into the muck at the slightest provocation, though your outfit says otherwise.”

    He reached a hand toward her, palm up, offering to assist her out of the creek. Jen stared at it for a moment, half of her wanting to step forward and touch it, to verify its existence. The other half knew damn well that such an action would be a deadly folly.

    “I think I’ll stay in the creek, thanks.”

    She saw him stiffen, his gaze sharpening before he sneered his question at her.

    “I’m sorry, do I know you?”

    “Nope,” she responded, probably too nonchalantly. “But I know who you are. What I don’t know is how the hell you’re here.”


    Set about a century after the events of Baldur’s Gate 3 and the fall of the Elder Brain, follow Astarion as he figures out how the hells to navigate this new plane he’s stumbled into with the help of his weird little guide. With any luck, between the two of them, they’ll be able to complete the quest he originally set out on.
