Summary
"A drow does not love, and does not trust. These things are weapons that can be turned against you, weaknesses that can be driven into your heart with more surety than any blade."
Ryme'dra Ulutar loved once - and swore to never be so foolish again. Raised by poor crafters in the lower levels of Ched Nasad, she lost her love to the conniving machinations of a Daughter of a noble House. Declared a murderer and a traitor, a life on the surface seemed too miserable to contemplate... but she did not know that living would prove the harder choice.
Gale Dekarios loved once - and it seems very likely to have signed his death warrant. Ambition has always been his greatest folly, and with his days quite literally numbered, he has tried and failed to embrace a noble, lonely death. Now infected with an illithid tadpole, he has limited time to work out how to cure his newest affliction, or risk a newly risen god from taking control of the city-leveling bomb in his chest.
But first of all, there's a sullen and amoral drow with a similarly terrible secret in their party, and he's never been one to resist a mystery.

Summary
Sometime after being pulled from the sigil by her strong arm, Gale found himself being pulled in by the party's enigmatic leader. While trying to uncover Tav's mysterious past, he fell into the all-too-familiar entrapments of longing, burdened further by his self-doubt. The road to Baldur's Gate would be a long one indeed, though perhaps Gale and Tav could find easier footing by walking it together.
A Gale-centric POV fic that follows the game narrative with the romance in the foreground. Now complete!

Summary
This is set during the epilogue of Baldur’s Gate 3, where Gale decides to stay a mortal so he can stay with Tav. They’re spending their first night relatively alone together, and with a real bed. Things get a little steamy for the first time. Also, modern plumbing exists in this world. I make the rules :) You don't have to read parts 1 and 2 to read this, but their situation (and jokes) will make more sense.
