Summary
It all started with the Nautiloid. There was a before, certainly. Isotta had been a scholar and a storyteller—an ethnographer—but not a mage. She had traveled the whole of Faerûn, exploring and cataloguing the people who called the material plane home. Where a wizard might hoard knowledge, Isotta sought to share it. Everything around them was just one big story, after all.
There was also a magnificent wizard named Rolan who had the misfortune to be born a tiefling. He also had the misfortune to meet a bard who claimed to be a scholar, named Isotta. Despite his best efforts to evade her, she repeatedly inserted herself into his life until he finally had no choice but to tell her he loved her, in his own way, and ask her if she might love him too—because why else could someone be so insistent on meddling if not for love? And then, dear reader, she rejected him.

The Way of the Wanderer is my love letter to Baldur’s Gate 3 and the grumpiest wizard deserving of love.
Or: Never write anything down that you don’t want Volo, the capitalist opportunist, to steal and publish.
Includes plot from Acts 1-3, and then continues after the events of BG3.

Summary
Gale Dekarios: The Wizard of Waterdeep. Forever set in stone.
Tall. Brave. Regal.
Liar.
He was haunting her from every corner of this city. She just wanted to forget him, forget his broken promise. But it was as though trying to forget him had only given Baldur’s Gate permission to steal the only thing she had left of him: her memories.
Soon, there would be nothing left of him that belonged only to her.
Not his name. Not his face. Not even the story of his death.
OR
She had been Gale Dekarios’s wife for less than twelve hours.
And now? She would be his widow for the rest of her life.

Summary
So, it is in the library that Gale now sits, listening with practiced indifference, to the back and forth between his mother and Tara; Tara demands that Gale be afforded time to rest following ‘his ordeal’, whereas his mother insists he is in dire need of companionship. Gale has no inclination towards either; his initial hope of the squabble running its course on its own, however, dwindles the longer it goes on. He supposes, after-all, that having had just over two tendays without such a conversation was more than he could have hoped for.

Summary
It's been 10 months since the defeat of the Elder Brain. Nyara works at the Counting House, her friends have scattered across Faerun and she's just trying to find a way to get laid, date, or both. Life is pretty good unless you count her unfulfilled contract with Raphael that he has, suspiciously, not collected on yet. What could go wrong?
AKA this has a loosely thrown together plot and is honestly just a means to have my Tav fuck some side characters I really wanted to write about.
