Elysium stretched around him, an endless vista of crystallized starlight. Upon a throne that seemed woven from ambition itself, Gale—once a wizard, now a god—sat with regal stillness. At his side, Mystra basked in her own luminous aura, serene, oblivious to the storm confined behind his eyes. His face was a masterpiece of divine composure, but his gaze held a fixed, haunted intensity, trained on nothing and everything. With a practiced, indifferent grace, he sorted through the cascading river of mortal prayers, each a flicker of hope or dread. But his attention, his entire being, was a hooked line cast into that current, waiting to snag on one particular soul. The celestial air thrummed with a tension he refused to name, the silence a confession the former archmage would not make.
