Summary: at the Szarr Palace, every single creature living under its roof is busy preparing the incoming event: an especially important ball, important enough to set the Great Hall up, in the Upper City wing. For this reason, Cazador summons Astarion, needing something from him. In Astarion's mind, it's the dreadful moment when he will know how he will be asked to entertain the guests.
But this time things are not as he thought.
