In his search for answers, he meets a seer named G'axir, who offers him glimpses into three different paths his life could take: his future as an Ascended Vampire, his future alone, and a future next to Tav. Now, Astarion must decide which path to follow before it's too late.

Rogue's Story: Astarion & Kirra (BG3 Romance Story)
A story about romance of Astarion and Kirra (half-elf rogue thief), during their journey together following the events of Baldur's Gate 3. CONTAINS SPOILERS from the game - for everyone who hasn't finished the game, the story describes events of the game and reveals a possible ending. Some events were made up to tell the story as I would like for Kirra to happen. Due to my limited english language skills, I used ChatGPT to adjust my story, so the text is more colorful (hope no one minds, but it helped me tell my story better).

The Pale Elf
Image is concept art I did for chapter 8. Slow burn romance. Sensitive topics mentioned inside. Reader discretion is advised. If this story had a theme song, it would be more than one. Give by Sleep Token, Sweet Tangerine by The Hush Sound, and TIMEZONE by Måneskin. Tav is a sharp-witted bard with a tongue as quick as her blade. Astarion is a dangerous vampire spawn rogue, bound by shadows and scars of the past. When their paths intertwine, sparks fly. Will something beautiful bloom between them, or will it be plucked before it ever has the chance to grow? - "You are more than what he wanted you to be," I murmur quietly. Astarion's gaze cuts to mine, sharp at first and then softening around the edges. "I'm a monster," he whispers with a shake of his head. "I've lured countless people to their deaths. Innocents." "That's not who you are anymore," I insist. I give his shoulder a gentle squeeze. "You can take back the narrative. Only you get to say who you are."Complete
