    Summary

    What happens when Taylor's soul gets shunted off post Gold Morning, and find's it's way into a new host?

    Well, she gets stuck in a setting that might be worse than Worm in a lot of ways, welcome to Faerun

    Ideally readers don't have to know a ton about the Forgotten Realms setting to enjoy the story, since Taylor will be experiencing it first hand as well.

    Story will mostly be written in a journal format, but I'll probably try my hand at a few first person chapters.

    New to Ao3 so tag suggestions are welcome.

    Summary

    The Arbiter's initial studies of human culture didn't happen after the Great Schism; he's figured out things about their species through long observation and plenty of patience. He'll acknowledge their new alliance gives him plenty of resources to fall back on when he doesn't understand something. Frankly, he doesn't get a LOT of the customs these people have.

    But it's good to increase his knowledge: as a curious Sangheili, he has many burning questions, ones he's harbored for years that ought to be answered at long last. There's only one problem he's got no hope of fixing.

    See, he REALLY wishes he could figure out if this 'bond' with his enemy-turned-ally is purely platonic, or he's instigated a serious courtship between them. Chief is being rude in not clearing up the matter but then again, the Arbiter is kind of shitty at clarifying what his questions are.

    Misunderstanding is in plenty but were it so easy to understand one another's intentions, then they'd never learn how to become each other's equal.

    Summary

    When a routine mission through the Void takes a disastrous turn, a lone Tenno finds himself stranded in a universe not his own—one without Orokin tech, without allies, and teeming with unstable powers called "parahumans." Cut off from the Origin System and with no way home, the Operator must adapt, infiltrate, and survive in this fractured new world. But Earth-Bet has secrets of its own and not all of them are eager to stay buried.

    Caught between old instincts and new rules, one Tenno walks the thin line between Warrior and Hero, searching for a path back while leaving a mark that won't be easily forgotten.
