Summary
“If you listened when I spoke instead of fantasizing about your dragon-riding days, you would know that those eggs are for your son’s favorite cake,” Shadowheart says, stirring her soup far harder than she has to. “When he asks for it first thing after walking through the door, as he always does, I’ll be sure to tell him that his amya thought it far more important to sweep the grounds for Vlaakith’s nonexistent assassins. Again.”
------------------------------
Shadowheart and Lae'zel have raised Xan, the gith egg, into a fine young man. Years post-canon, he's bringing home his first boyfriend for their approval. And that's something Lae'zel is hard-pressed to give.

Summary
Astarion is near the docks when he feels Cazador's compulsion on him snap. He doesn't think twice. He just takes the next available ship out of Baldur's Gate. Its destination: The City of Splendors. Waterdeep.
*
Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”
“None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”

Summary
Something has happened to Gale. Who was Gale, anyway? Well, Gale was himself, obviously, but what did that entail?

Summary
“Your scars are quite old,” Halsin remarks, and Astarion flinches so hard he nearly stabs himself with his own needle. Gods above, how does a man that large move that quietly? He blinks up at the druid, now looming above him. He smiles pleasantly, like he always does, and Astarion does not stare at the way the motion makes his tattoo ripple.
“Well spotted,” he manages.
--
Astarion does not understand what Halsin wants. Until he does.
