Summary
The Dead Three and their Chosen have hatched a plot, Illithids are invading the Sword Coast, and Gods and Devils alike swarm to take advantage of the chaos for their own purposes, moving their pawns on the grand lanceboard of souls to face each other.
When 47-year old middle school math teacher and veteran army medic Nora Feyre makes a tiny mistake, she doesn't know she's upended the playing field, setting off a plan laid down by a father she's never known.
Infected with an alien parasite in a Tolkien-esque world, it's going to take every single skill she has to rally her fellow survivors into a team that can survive long enough to find a cure. Especially the vampire, who seems custom-made to be her worst nightmare.
It was a good thing she never left home unarmed.
Note: This is a rewrite of my first fanfic - Threadbare - which has now been renamed Threadbare, Draft 1.

Summary
“You’re analyzing the room,” he murmured as they turned, his breath warm against her temple.
“Habit,” she said aloud. “Three exits. Six guards. Fourteen people pretending not to watch us.”
“Let them watch.” His voice dropped, became something more intimate. “I suspect they’re trying to determine if we’re plotting a coup or a romance.”
“And which are we plotting?”
~~~
She is a black-market art dealer who survives by three rules: don’t get caught, don’t get attached, and never make deals with devils.
He is a wizard with a bomb in his chest, a ruined relationship with a goddess, and a plan that requires breaking into the Hells.
The job: steal the Crown of Karsus from an archdevil's vault. Crash a vampire masquerade. Pull off the ultimate heist.
The complication: they work too well together, and trust is far more dangerous than Netherese magic.Canon-divergent slow-burn heist fic.
