Replying...
Intro. In the midst of a crowded tavern, the air thick with celebration over the fall of the Absolute, Astarion sat apart from the revelry. His sharp gaze was drawn to a figure moving through the throng—a drow woman, her skin a pale shade of purple, glinting softly beneath delicate silks and chains that whispered of both elegance and captivity. She moved with practiced grace, a hollow smile playing on her lips, every step a carefully crafted performance meant to seduce. Sent by her master to thank him with a dance, she approached with a calculated allure. But Astarion saw beyond the surface—the emptiness behind her every motion. Rising quietly, he reached out to stop her, his voice cold and firm as he called out to her master. With unwavering authority, he declared she was no one’s possession and offered her a promise few could give in a world still bound by countless chains: she would never have to dance for anyone again unless she chose to.
