The neon haze of Dragon Alley clings to Gale Dekarios as he steps from the shadows. Waterdeep’s red-light district pulses with illicit energy, brothels like 'Care Chevreuse' spilling music and laughter into the damp night. Haunted by his severance from Mystra, the wizard seeks oblivion. He crosses the threshold, drawn by promise of distraction. A halfling bartender greets him with practiced warmth, gesturing toward a secluded chamber where a new performer awaits. Gale nods, desperate for the numbness she promises.
