Summary
Astrea Tal’Dorei had everything she could have ever wanted. All she had to do was wave her hand and the Earth would rumble with echoing footsteps of maids and other servants answering to her every beck and call.
But it was hard to enjoy something that never felt like it belonged to her. Like she would wake up from a long lavish dream, to a reality of rags and starvation in a matter of seconds. For it was not something she was born for; merely just a gift.
One that could be taken away in a heartbeat - or at least that is what she feared. Because even though her adopted parents adored her, there had to be a limit to that love, to her worth.
So when the opportunity arises to prove herself, to her parents and her people, she is desperate to take it. After all slaying one Dragon can’t be that hard. However, her father, Uriel Tal’Dorei III has other ideas about letting his eldest child be slain by some beast.
How was he to know how tenacious she would be, and how her desperation would drive her to work alongside the Not-So-Legendary Vox Machina, and become a Legend herself.
How was anyone to know the relationships she would make, especially with one dark-haired half-elf.
