Prompt #0046: June 25, 2018

Prompt 0046 is a Deadfire prompt. It contains spoilers for the Ashen Maw portion of the main quest, so it’s behind the cut.

This week’s prompt: Inspired in part by a comic by @fangmich, tell a story from your Watcher’s missing soul-fragment’s point of view. That is, the part of their soul trapped in Eothas until they reunite with that half of their soul after the Ashen Maw – What has it been like for them being stuck in an adra god for his travels through the Deadfire? Or, imagine that this stolen piece of soul can also see, react to, and even comment on what the rest of the Watcher’s soul – the living, housed-in-flesh part – has been doing in the Deadfire? What story would their missing soul tell?

Remember to tag your fic with #pillars prompts weekly and/or mention @pillarspromptsweekly for ribbon record-keeping. Fics posted to AO3 can be added to our collection there. And feel free to post this prompt’s badge, below, with your fic, or on your profile, or wherever you would like to use it!
