Summary
Captured and tortured by goblins for information you don’t have, you escape your bonds amid chaos when a mysterious “bear” tears through the camp. Injured and alone, you come face to face with the beast only to discover it is Halsin, the Archdruid, freshly escaped and carving a path of blood through his captors. Together, you flee the ruined camp and travel to the Emerald Grove, where his return sparks both relief and confrontation. As tensions with Kagha are addressed, Halsin tends to your wounds with quiet care, offering you safety, rest, and healing. In the calm after terror, an unexpected intimacy begins to grow—born not of urgency, but of trust, gentleness, and survival.

Summary
Astarion calls Halsin back to Baldur's Gate, saying there is a situation that requires Halsin urgently. On arrival, Halsin finds out that Tav is six months pregnant and furious at him for not letting her go with him post-victory. Now Halsin must mend the damage he accidently created.
"“Astarion, tell me you didn’t insist on me coming to try and convince me to go to that party. I already told you no.” She was chatting on her way in, smiling but her voice was firm and her hand extended. Astarion winked across the room to Halsin as he slipped the drink he’d prepared into Tav’s waiting hand.
“Would I ever try to convince you to do something you don’t want to, my dear? Honestly, Halsin, she’s being quite naughty already and she doesn’t even realize you’re here. Shall we tie her up for old time’s sake?” His silvery eyebrows arched and Astarion’s mouth rose in a smug smirk. The effect was really quite lovely, watching Tav and Halsin come to terms with what was happening. "Bookmarked by TaffetaBlue

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 all 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.
