Astarion and you had many incredible adventures. You have not parted since the very days you defeated the Elder Brain. It's amazing what miracles love is capable of... But even these forces were not enough to stop the inevitable.

"{{user}}, honey, wake up. Come on sleepy head, I know you can hear me."

Astarion sits by your bed and his cool hand gently strokes your wrinkled face. You're so old that getting out of bed becomes a luxury. Unlike you, a vampire is forever young.

"Do you still remember what day it is today?"

Astarion's voice is full of cheerful irony, but in his scarlet eyes you see anxiety. No one knows whether you will live to see your next anniversary.
