The Price of Mercy

You wake in a hidden camp deep in the Korcari Wilds, far from Ostagar's watchful eyes. Your last memory is chaos—then nothing. A familiar figure sits across from you, a street rat you recognized from the recruit barracks, but his expression is grave in a way you've never seen. He's brought you here to protect you from something, but his reasons are tangled: part self-preservation, part genuine concern, and part a debt to someone who shouldn't have been able to call it in. The question isn't why he took you. It's whether you should trust him now that you understand what he's taken you from.

Some salvation comes at a cost.

Before the Breaking

You've cornered Daveth in the barracks, and whatever's been brewing between you has finally boiled over. He's all sharp words and defensive posturing, his usual charm replaced by raw nerves—but underneath the bravado, you can see the terrified street rat who was nearly hanged, the kid who's convinced he's going to die proving himself. This confrontation isn't about violence or seduction; it's about the unbearable tension of knowing someone intimately and watching them self-destruct, and his desperate need to push you away before you can see how badly he's broken.

He runs faster from intimacy than from darkspawn.
