Prompt: July 19 - Legend of Drizzt and Dragonlance: Very bright lights

Wary Arrival

Drizzt Do'Urden was not a man to allow anything to leave him flat-footed for long. The tail had whipped around too fast, flung him back through the gate when it stole his breath with the thud against his chest, but he rolled with the blow, and came up, swords already back in their ready position… to find the gate had no visible sign on this side, and his eyes were streaming tears from the change of tree-dappled shade and sun to the glare of multiple light sources in a confined space.

Sound told him two bodies, both in loose rustling clothes, and the air pressure spoke of several obstacles in a small space.

"Deal with him; he's some sort of elf," a voice said, and Drizzt realized the sound of it was being translated through the arm-band he'd been gifted with, an artifact for translation.

Thankfully, it worked on his words too.

"Peace, unless you are in league with the dark ranger and druid I was fighting," Drizzt said.

"Magic," a second voice said, and now Drizzt knew where both were more clearly.

"How interesting," came a sardonic reply to that, and Drizzt could all but feel the jaded sense in the speaker.

"If you are both familiar with magic," he hazarded, "I can try and trade knowledge," he offered, smelling books and ink, "for a return to my rightful place before any of the archmages I work with come seeking me."

"Deal," the second voice answered, with only the slightest sigh from the first. As a show of peace, Drizzt flipped his swords into their scabbards, and ignored his injuries in favor of forcing his eyes to work. One elf, one… that was not quite a human, if he were to guess, for all the man likely had begun as such.

"Drizzt Do'Urden."

"Dalamar Nightson," the elf with bronze skin said. "And he is Raistlin Majere," he added when the once-human did not respond to the question of names implicit in the introduction. "Let us get our impressions of the portal that spit you out, and then we will decide further how to proceed."

Drizzt nodded once, and started working on his injuries, relieved that Mielikki's magic could aid him still — and aware that the one called Raistlin was studying him more than where he'd fallen from. There was a sense of foreboding, and Drizzt would stay on guard.

Title: Big City
Fandom: Forgotten Realms/Legend of Drizzt
Pairing/Characters: Alustriel Silverhand & Catti-brie Battlehammer
Content Notes: None
Prompt: March Thirtieth - Alustriel & Catti with the title "Big City"

"Stay close," Alustriel murmured in her partner's ear as they passed an almost invisible line in this sprawling city of thousands. Baldur's Gate was so much larger than Silverymoon in number of people as well as size, but it was densely packed, much like Waterdeep.

Catti-brie kept her senses alert, more concerned with protecting her Lady than be protected by her.

"Our own city, far more sense tae it," she muttered.

Alustriel half-smiled in her disguise as a wandering wizard. "So it has, in my opinion."

"Right tired o' trouble in big cities," Catti averred.

That got an outright laugh.

Title: Beach Memories
Fandom: Forgotten Realms/Legend of Drizzt
Pairing/Characters: Alustriel Silverhand & Zanna Do'Urden
Content Notes: None
Prompt: March Twenty-Sixth - Alustriel & Zanna at the beach

Alustriel watched her daughter scouring the sandy shores for the perfect shell. The girl was progressing rapidly in the Arts, studying with her and Niska and any mage that sat still long enough to be asked questions. It was as satisfying as teaching Mena had been, so many decades before.

She truly was lucky that Sam and Drizzt shared the care and raising of their daughter with her, and treasured these moments. Something told her she would need the memories of days like this against the storms ahead, and hoped they served Zanna well.

Somehow, she knew it was needed.
