    Summary

    Raphael’s smile widens. They both know he works best when there is no time to think. “Salvation! Yes, I believe I do have salvation in hand,” Raphael says. He sinks down into a squat, reaching out to pinch Astarion’s cheek. He snarls and swats the devil’s hand away. “Safety from your master, in exchange for your service.”

    Service. Astarion’s mind whirs, his thoughts rampaging through his head far too quickly. “What kind of service?”

    ~

    Although the Absolute has fallen, not all of the world's saviours are enjoying the aftermath. With Cazador left alive, Astarion has no choice but to return to the shadows, trying to escape the cruel clutches of his master. Raphael takes notice.

    A kidnap/rescue story in which Astarion yearns for a hero, and eventually gets one.
