#but 7000 people is So Much and theyre basically wild animals at that point

post game Vice and Astarion become vampire hunters sort of out of necessity methinks

#as much as I think astarion would feel guilty about the spawn #I cant find a way in my brain to justify him ruling over a colony of people that probably hate him/dont want anything to do with him #but hed still try and help #but 7000 people is So Much and theyre basically wild animals at that point #Vice and astarion kinda have to become hunters but usually only to try and track down the spawn that leave the underdark #and try and set them on the right path #cause again #I dont think astarion could justify Forcing someone to stay where they dont want to be #and hes also just one man #its this dance of trying to keep innocents safe and also trying to keep the spawn safe and hes just caught in the middle of it all #like the colony exists itd just be so small for so many years #and astarion feels like he owes it to them to try and find a cure or a way to ease their condition and thats what he can best focus on #I guess #uhh also Vampire turned vampire hunter is cool #Even if theyre just spawn theres also the very real feeling of not wanting any of them to become a monster like cazador #also means that maybe if he could walk in the sun again #he could share that with the spawn #viceposting #bg3 spoilers
