Authority

“The only way to get the druid and the duke out alive – and with all parties’ limbs intact – is to do so with as little fanfare as possible. I will find a way to negotiate with her,” stated Dara.

“Negotiate with what?” pressed Lae’zel. “We barely have enough coin and supplies for ourselves!”

“And even if we did,” sneered Shadowheart, “how do you know it won’t end with a knife at each other’s throats? Is it not in the nature of Underelves to kill your own?”

An icy tension filled the air. Gale's blood simmered under his skin.

“Perhaps,” Dara replied flatly, “if we were in Menzoberranzan. But if she is indeed leading this war camp under the banner of anyone or anything other than Lolth, she must have cut her ties with the Underdark.”

“Meaning what?” asked Karlach.

“Meaning she is a surface drow. Like me. No warring house to defend. No agendas to carry out. And, therefore,” – her tone sharpened – “no reason for us to indulge in our nature.”

The wizard smirked. Well done, Dara.

I’ve been having to take a break from Ellie’s pre-tadpole stuff for a minute because I overwhelmed myself for no reason (what’s new LOL), so I’ve been playing around with her wedding story and OMG look how my babies look at each other 🥰

And, I mean, how could you look at this face and not melt? 🫠

“Let me ask you something, wizard. If by any and all miracles you make it to the other side of this alive, what will you do?”

“I’m not sure,” replied Gale, “I suppose that all depends on the status of the orb. If I had my way, I’d return to my home in Waterdeep. What about you?” 

“I do not know. Find a new abandoned hut somewhere, most likely.” The drow paused, her face pinched in thought. “What would you say, if we both make it out alive, I bump into you at the Yawning Portal and take you up on that offer?”

His first thought was that he misheard her. The warmth of her smile assured him he had not. “Dara Eberranth, nothing would give me greater pleasure." ~*~*~*~*~*~

Saw this on Reddit and completely forgot what page I was looking at

I'll be damned if I can't get that image out of my head though now.

"I am beyond lucky to have you. Sometimes even the power of the Weave seems mundane, compared to how you make me feel."

Prologue (Part 3) - Quandaries

Snippet of prologue below ~*~*~*~*~*~*~

As the hours passed, Dara had almost forgotten herself around the mysterious human. Of course, her curiosity about him was still not satisfied, but she was willing to let that go for the time being. The only logical reason for any surface wizard to brave such a dreadful place alone would be in search of dragon scales to produce everdark ink, a substance prized by drow wizards. That did not explain his secrecy nor his argument with Tara, however. Perhaps she would come to understand why when they were more acquainted with one another.

When? she thought, huffing a small laugh, How bold of me.

Prologue (Part 2) - Departures

Snippet (well bigger than that I guess) of prologue ~*~*~*~*~*~* And before today, Dara was wholly certain she understood the nuances of humanity and had met every variation of them, especially of the male variety. That is…

“Have you been to Waterdeep? If you have not, I highly suggest you make your way there. I may be biased, but it is not called the City of Splendors for nothing! Should you should find yourself there, make sure you look for the Mighty Manticore. Yes, the locals call it the Mangy Manticore, but do not let that foul attempt at wordplay lead you astray. The stew they offer warms the belly on a frosty day better than any ale or wine ever could …”

… until she met the wizard.

“Morena Dekarios. That’s my mother’s name. She was a peculiar one, let's just put it that way. For instance, she would never let me call her ‘mother.’ I never realized how anomalous it was for a child to call their progenitor by their given name until I was in my pubescent years. Anyway, she is a wizard herself and has been the proprietor of a small potion shop in Waterdeep for nearly thirty years! The coin she earned put me through Blackstaff Academy. A brilliant wizard, she is. And an even more shrewd business woman …"

And, well …  

“… Then there’s Elminster, of course. A wizard’s wizard, one may claim. The man nearly raised me. Plucked me from obscurity as a young boy and saw my potential with the Weave. Bless that man. Who knows where I would have been without his intervention. Of course, he probably could have intervened a tad more when I first met the Lady of Mysteries. I was about to embark on a similar path he walked himself some centuries ago. A little warning would have been most appreciated …”

The wizard was loquacious.

Prologue (Part 1) - Guidance

Snippett of prologue below ~*~*~*~*~*~

Gale only made it just past the door frame of her hut before she called out to him.

“Wizard.” He turned around. “How much?”

With a wide grin, he pulled out a jingling bundle of coins from his travel bag and softly tossed it to her.

“How does five hundred gold coins sound? Half now, half when we reach our destination. I’ll even let you count it, as a gesture of good faith.”

The drow woman raised her eyebrows as she peeked into the bag.

“Seeing we have a couple of travel days ahead of us,” he continued, “I would be more than happy to take on cooking duties at camp. I’m sure I can whip up something that will satisfy both of us. If you would allow me, of course. And, as an extension of my sincerest apologies for ruining your mushroom garden, you can have the first pick of my victuals. I am a bit of an overpacker and brought more than I will need. So, what do you say?”

Poking her fingers into the coin bag, the drow looked back at him with a mix of amusement and reluctance in her eyes.

“Very well,” she conceded, “Dale, was it?”

“Gale of Waterdeep.”

Attention Galemancers: Gale thinks you are wonderful

In celebration of Galemancer week, this post is dedicated to all my fellow wizard-lovers 💜

We’ve talked plenty about how much we love Gale—but in this post I want to talk about how Gale Dekarios loves us, too. Very, very much.

From Astarion-to-Gale pipeliners, to the gamers who played BG3 not intending to romance anyone, to players who thought they’d just play the game casually and mayyybe smooch the hunky Druid elf guy or hot fiery lady, we all played BG3 thinking we had a pretty clear idea of how it was going to go—only to find ourselves rizzed by the wizard.

But we didn’t just choose Gale—Gale chose us.

Remember, Tav does not initiate the romance; Gale has to choose to start the weave scene. So if you’re reading this and you’re a Galemancer, it’s because Gale wanted you to be one.

That’s right Galemancers: Your Pixel Husband©️ took one look at you/your Tav, liked you immediately, and told the other romanceable companions, ‘I beg your pardon, this one is mine.’ The rest is history.

Gale loves us just as much as we love him—and this goes for ALL GALEMANCERS, no matter how your romance went:

Did you go into the game already liking Gale and actively wanting your Tav to romance him? Then Gale applauds your excellent taste. It’s one of the many reasons he chose you! To like so many things about him, and right from the start…he thinks your generosity is quite wonderful.

Did your Tav choose another companion first, and only romance Gale later on/during a second play through? No matter. He knew that you would come to your senses eventually! (just like he’s sure Minthara will appreciate him at some point…) He just had to be patient. It’s fine; you were worth the wait, after all.

Did you get Sneaky God Gale and have to re-do your run/start a new one to get your human proposal ending? Gale knew from the start that you were special—and that you would love him enough to replay the game and fix any bad outcomes. He knew you would do whatever was necessary to correct his path so he could marry you! Seeing you do all that for him…well…it only makes him want you more.

Did you encourage Gale to become a God & have him ascend your Tav, too? Then GodGale is beyond thrilled he chose you. Like he says in the human epilogue: ‘I could spend an eternity in your company.’ Now he can finally do that! (One small request—please keep his ambition in check, but do allow him to continue to troll Raphael as often as he likes.)

Did you romance Gale, but have your Tav go to Avernus with Karlach to help her? Gale always knew you had a heart of gold, and that’s one of the reasons he chose you. A little distance & time won’t hurt a bond like yours—and he’ll have his hearth & home waiting for your return.

Did you read online guides to do Gale’s & Tav’s romance correctly and get the ending you wanted from the start? What divine calculus plucked you from the heavens and thrust you into Gale’s arms? He knew you were studious and detail-oriented from the moment he met you, which is why he chose you! To know you studied so hard in order to get a good ending for him…none have loved him so purely before.

— — —

In short: Gale Dekarios doesn’t toss the ‘L’ word around lightly. He only picks someone to be a Galemancer if he truly thinks they are wonderful—and that’s not just anyone.

In conclusion: Galemancers, you are wonderful!

Now go enjoy the rest of this week with your well-earned and well-deserved pixel wizard—who chose you 💜

Dara Eberranth (BG3 Tav) Summary:

In a previous life, Dara was the eldest daughter of House Eberranth, a wealthy minor noble family from Menzoberranzan. One day, her ambitious family fell from grace, leaving her no choice but to flee to the surface where her kind is not welcome. Coming to terms with losing everyone in her life – including her beloved husband Vaszair and brother Malaguyren – Dara learns to survive alone off of her own wit and ingenuity.

Years later, Dara finds contentment in her solitude. That is until she meets Gale, a handsome albeit peculiar wizard from Waterdeep, on his way to the Underdark. Their paths would later cross again when they become thrusted into an alliance of misfits, all suffering the same mysterious affliction.

As Dara and Gale’s attraction grows, harrowing secrets reveal themselves and haughty ambitions threaten to rip them apart. But hope is on the horizon, if they are only brave enough to confront it.
