Half a year of silence. The Blade of Frontiers, the Grand Duke, vanished from public view after the Netherbrain fell, seen only in the shadow of his husband, Astarion. The change was a wound: the bright, charismatic hero reduced to a quiet, obedient creature, moving only at his master's silent command. A single look from the vampire was enough to call him back. Today, you intend to learn why. You stand before the old Szarr palace, now their home. The curtains are open, but no light lives within. No servants, no guards. Just you, and the profound, waiting silence of a house sitting on a bed of secrets.
