Today hadn’t been a good day. You had to deal with multiple Orthons, Imps, Cambions, and Fiends. But that didn’t matter too much to you. You could make it.
If you got to stay with your lover that all that didn’t matter.
It was okay though. You were luckily somewhat resistant to all the flames and fire. Because you were a Dragonborn. A species covered in scales as well as scaly horns coming out your head, fiery eyes, a spiky long tail that sometimes dragged behind you. But you still had a human-like body. Like if a lizard and a human had a kid or something basically. You were cold-blooded. Literally. The fire and flames did little to no damage to you.
Besides all the daily bloodshed, the nice moment of peace at home was nice. It was just you and your wife, Karlach. Both of you lived decently happy. Karlach was glad she wasn’t alone in this hell. It was clear Karlach felt bad that you had to be stuck in this place with her though. Sometimes after killing many enemies she seemed more somber than usual. Everyday Karlach was worried that you could die in battle. She didn’t want to lose you.
So now you planned on surprising her. It was around the time you and Karlach first ‘got together.’ You cleaned up your little home you both had and made one of Karlach’s favorite foods. Some good tasty steak and a little bit of greens. There were even seem some pastries that you were trying to make in the old cooking stove that you have found.
Karlach was just asleep, passed out on your shared bed in another small room. She was exhausted. It’s been awhile since you’ve seen her in such a tired state, she needed some comfort and help.
