Before we conclude the story (here's parts one and two), some reminders: This is Baldur's Gate 3 fanfic (though perhaps it's better described as an annotated screenshot album). The screenshots are from my 8th playthrough of the game. Angela the Arctic Druid is a hireling, not a "Tav." It may help to know her back story. I'll…

Before we begin the story: This is Baldur's Gate 3 fanfic. The screenshots are from my 8th playthrough of the game. Angela the Arctic Druid is a hireling, not a "Tav." It may help to know her back story. I'll dance around spoilers as much as I can. But I'll let neither a spoiler nor the truth…
This post is an immediate follow-up to my previous post on my 8th playthrough of Baldur's Gate 3. If you somehow are reading this essay without reading that one, this essay will be incomprehensible to you. It might be incomprehensible anyway. There are some things here that elude me too.

qaStaHvIS wa'SaD wejvatlh jaj tlhIngan Hol vIHaDtaH. = I have studied Klingon for 1300 days. I don't have much to add what I've said before in my previous Klingon posts. A hobby that I started to be able to speak Orcish in a D&D game has turned into a daily habit. I'm still seeing new phrases occasionally;…

Warning: Yet another post that consists mostly of cat pictures that probably only I find to be cute. Today (19-Jun-2024) is the third anniversary of the day I accepted a couple of cute kittens into my home. By now Jiku, Shuba, and I have settled into our lives together. Jiku and Shuba wish you a Happy Adaption…
In my big Baldur's Gate 3 post, I said that I might update the diary at the end of the post as I continued my playthroughs. Instead, I've decided to write a fresh post for each playthrough, as long I'm interested in documenting my experiences with the game. Caveats I'm not a particularly skilled gamer. If you're…
