@Gatsbys_lament it’s true but is treated with sincere weight and condemned. i read the book and have some problems with it but i will say she treats astarion’s trauma like real trauma. neil wouldn’t have gotten involved if he thought it was unfair idk 🤷🏻♀️
i honestly enjoyed it but MAN there were some notable lore inaccuracies. it was still a fun read! choosing to treat it as a high quality fanfic for my own sanity 🤣
