Summary
Following the acquisition of Aumar Technology Group by Ascension, Astarion gets saddled with managing the worst product imaginable: a smart bed. To make matters worse, the lead engineer, Gale Dekarios, is a thorn in his side.
Gale feels much the same now that he works under the clueless and tempestuous Astarion Ancunin who doesn’t know the first thing about engineering. They are constantly butting heads, and now have to create a ridiculous product no one asked for.
When Cazador sends them off to the Faerun Electronics Expo and Trade Show (FEETS for short) to demo the smart bed, things quickly go awry— and so does any professionalism between them.

Summary
Geir Dagrsson knows three things: cattle die, kinsmen die, but the one thing that doesn’t is a man’s deeds. He just didn’t expect his greatest one to be marrying the brat prince of East Anglia, and worst of all, the son of one of his father’s killers: a Saxon.
Ӕlfstan, son of Cadwallon, loathes the heathens plaguing their lands. When he is sold off in marriage to one, he will do whatever it takes to free himself from the man, his father’s wishes be damned. The Viking he is promised to also proves to be just as irritating as he expected.
Little do they both know, sinister forces are looking to sow more discord between the denizens of East Anglia, with Geir and Ӕlfstan at the centre of it all.

Summary
Not far from Creche Y'llek, Gale sits near the edge of a ravine contemplating what to do about Mystra's directive on using the orb. But as he stares at the night sky, his mind focuses on Astarion, the man he is hopelessly in love with.
Concerned for Gale's well-being, Astarion leaves camp to search for him across the craggy terrain. It doesn't take Astarion long to find Gale and join him on the mossy rocks, discussing the drastic choice presented to him regarding the orb.
After travelling together for almost two months, feelings that had steadily grown bubble to the surface, prompting a long overdue conversation between them.

Summary
Baronet Dekarios is a man of science, but the supernatural is as much a science as anything else, isn't it? He's also a man in need of a new patron. So, when an old university friend offers entrance to a party held by one of England's most secretive societies — a club of the country's richest men, rumored to dabble in the occult and the satanic — he sees the opportunity to kill two metaphysical birds with one stone. And all he needs to do to gain entry is secure the approval of the club's mysterious leader, the enigmatic Lord Ancunin.

Summary
Gale Dekarios is four years old, which is a very fine age for having important thoughts about magic and sandwiches. He lives in a rather small but very cozy house in Baldur’s Gate with his mother, Morena, and a tressym named Tara, whom he had summoned all by himself on a particularly curious afternoon.
One day, when the sun sat just right in the sky, and it was warm enough to wander, Gale decided it was an excellent day for a walk. But then, further along than he usually went, Gale found a new house. It was very big, with a tall stone wall all around it. The sort of wall that said someone important lives here. He found a small opening at the bottom of the house where some bricks had fallen out.
And in that opening, there was a room below, lit by a single lamp on the ceiling. A basement. And in the middle of the basement, cross-legged and perfectly still except for his hands, sat a little elf.
This was very curious to Gale, because there were no baby elves in Baldur’s Gate.
