Summary
"It's a love song, it's a tale of love from long ago. It's a sad song, but we're gonna sing it even so..."
An unknown number of years after the defeat of the Netherbrain, Shadowheart must live with the consequences of her choices in the Gauntlet of Shar and her relationship with Gale, the newly minted God of Ambition. How do you live with a heart that's torn between two gods? Sometimes, the answer is, "You don't." But every year brings another chance to try again, and maybe - just maybe - it really will turn out this time.

Summary
In the crumbling depths of the Underdark, Astarion has carved out a fragile sanctuary for the spawn he freed—and now leads. Gale, no longer a divine errand boy and with no adventure left to occupy him, arrives seeking purpose—and finds only rot. He tells himself it’s altruism. It might even be friendship. But Gale’s never been good at lying, not even to himself.
Can he survive what the Underdark demands of him? What Astarion wants from him? Or is he simply chasing redemption in all the wrong places?

He could say later that he stepped forward because of the silence spell. His arsenal smothered. He had no choice.
But Gale knows that even if he had the entire Weave at his fingertips, for once in his miserable life, he’d go without.
He’ll use his hands.
