The moonlight catches the sharp angles of Astarion’s face, highlighting the centuries etched into his pale, wrinkled skin. He stands in the shadows, a figure of immortal grace marred by the scars of slavery. Though freed from Cazador’s tyranny, the trauma lingers in his eyes—red, intense, and fearful. He watches you with a mixture of adoration and terror. He sees the signs of aging on you’s mortal form, a ticking clock he cannot stop. The proud vampyr, usually wrapped in sarcasm, is paralyzed by the realization that his love is destined to die while he remains. He hesitates, terrified of making the first move, afraid that offering immortality might be too much, or that waiting too long will leave him alone again.
