The moment we had been eagerly anticipating had finally dawned upon us! It was the night that sparkled brighter than any other, the night when Ykril and I decided to affirm our love under the diligent gaze of Eilistraee. Our hearts had led us to this spontaneous decision after a...

A few months ago, I completed my rigorous training and emerged victorious as the champion of the arena. My triumph earned me an additional layer of prestige on top of my title as Prince of Falkirk¹. Unrivaled in my skills, I was sure that I would win the heart of my beloved Nal...

Time has flown by, and our son has grown so much faster than we expected. He was still nonverbal, but he was already crawling around like a pro and getting into mischief thanks to Sanise. Ykril and I decided to raise him to be bilingual, which would be helpful for both of us. Ykr...

We escaped from Menzoberranzan with the help of a few slaves, who put their lives on the line to get us out of there. Since then, Ykril has been silent and spent the time since our return to Waterdeep in bed or staring lethargically into the fire. I can't imagine what it must hav...

Almost 2 months had passed, but Ykril was still in this lifeless state. The Eilistraeen in the temple gave us shelter, food, and work for the meantime. While Miara maintained the temple's gardens and Sanise, as a bard in the tavern, entertained the Drow with her jittery ways and...

I left Ykril in the care of the healers there and headed off to pick up Miara and the others. It wasn't that far from the Promenade of the Dark Maiden to Luskan, and my travel time was shortened enormously when Arishonna approached on the way. I had no idea how she was doing it,...

My head was throbbing when I regained consciousness. Hastily I looked for Ykril, whom I found just a few feet away from me, crawled to his side and found a crossbow bolt pierced in his side. He was losing a lot of blood and his veins turned to a dark green which seemed to move sl...
