    Summary

    “There are angels just like you,” he spoke, and fire

    Twined through my mind, a chain I could not break.

    “They linger high, yet Heaven’s winged desire

    Covets what we share, the world to shake.

    No one will match your beauty, and none like me,

    And should you seek, it only drives the ache.

    Each whisper of my name will pull, you see,

    And leave your soul to tremble, wide awake.”

     

    Six years have passed since they were torn apart.

    Every time Cazador reminds him of his 133-year “mistake,” the shame presses firmer into his ribs, a constant reminder of what was lost. What he'd had.

    Astarion wonders what it was all for—every stolen moment together, every cruel lesson in return, and the ever-increasing shadowed years building.

    And finally, he decides: If he cannot reach the sun, nor bask in its light… then he will simply leap toward it.
