Summary
After leaving Stormhail and fleeing to Montwise with his wounded Godsblade, Temenos comes up with an idea upon recalling a story about Aelfric.
A story of how "the Flamebringer, wielder of the most holy of magic—fueled by the very light of the Sacred Flame itself—was able to release all of his power in a single, devastating spell, burning away the darkness and reducing his enemies to ash."
And so, as Aelfric's chosen cleric and fellow practitioner of holy magic, it obviously stood to reason that (despite what anyone else might have to say about it) he should be able to cast such a spell as well.
Right?
(Or, Temenos sets out to learn Heavenly Shine, with varying degrees of success. Because unfortunately, wielding the power of a god was never going to be easy).

Summary
Ever since his mother died, Goro Akechi languished from orphanages to neglectful foster homes with his hopes ever dwindling. One fateful night in Inaba, a chance encounter with Kanji Tatsumi alters the trajectory of his life forever.
A single phone call is all it takes to set an intervention in motion. The Dojima family offers him a fresh start and a chance to heal, and Kanji extends the hand of friendship, but just as he begins to lower his walls, his world flips upside down. Rumors of the Midnight Channel, the arrival of Yu Narukami, and the ensuing serial murder case drive Akechi down a reckless path. No matter the dangers, he will find the truth and prove he's more than a throwaway child.

Summary
The long-awaited sequel to Cicatrice! Well, long-awaited for me anyway. Come and see the next adventure of Lyric and Astarion; everyone’s favorite 'disaster vampire' of Baldur’s Gate 3! Rated E for all the most obvious reasons. (Story begins at the start of Act III in the game but you should definitely read "Cicatrice" first).

Summary
Two Crows, a ragtag gang of roommates, and their allies walk into the apocalypse and walk out a family.
Zelena de Riva took the contract to help Varric hunt Solas as a way to return to Viago's good graces after the Antaam debacle. She didn't plan on being in charge of saving the world. She also didn't plan on Lucanis Dellamorte.
Good thing improvisation had always been her greatest strength - and that the family she left behind in Antiva had no intention of leaving her to save the world alone.
