ATG 17 - Thief? Envoy
In which a robber becomes a guest...
Tav needs information on where to find Wyll's father if she's going to help him break free from his contract with Mizora, and given they denied the cambion's offer that would have further bound him to serve her, there are few options left.
Sending most of their companions away,
Tav and Astarion organise a break-in of sorts,
where she plans to sneak into Gortash's stronghold and use everything at her disposal to find out whatever she can about the prison's location without letting the tyrant figure out what she's up to.
A dangerous game, but there are advantages
to a midnight truce with a tyrant
where wits and bodies meet their equals~

Soft!Raphael, comfort, and feelings
