To have found love and acceptance now...
⠀⠀❝ Astarion... what do you want to do when all this is over? Is there a dream you've always had before Cazador...?❞
To be seen as a safe haven was a foreign concept. Her, who had been chased away on so many occasions by the very same people she helped and saved, all when her heritage was discovered. For Astarion to still want her after knowing she was a half demon...
Astarion’s arms instinctively tightened around her at the mention of the ritual, as if by sheer will he could keep the encroaching dread at bay. Nestled in her embrace, he felt something startling—safety. Strength. Perhaps even a flicker of courage that hadn’t been his in +

It may have sounded like boasting, but in truth she was in disbelief. Just but a month ago she would've never thought this to be possible.

Apologies for being sporadic, but I've had very little motivation to write.
