    I mean what would you tell an ex that summoned an orb that wanted to eat you (not in the sexy way)?

    Gale did the equivalent of a Chernobyl meltdown in his lab. Except instead of a nuclear meltdown it’s a bomb that feeds on magic and will EAT Mystra if given an opportunity.

    Dude fucked up. Big time. And a pretty big portion of him died with the bond, he isn’t really a Wizard anymore, that got eaten. His magic is the leftover remnants after the orb ate him.

      You say that like Gale actively planned to try and kill Mystra. He was trying to give her back a piece of something that he thought was part of her. Meanwhile she was such a fool she couldn’t see that this mortal was pining to do something for her. Instead of saying it was dangerous she just kept saying “Nah babe, I don’t need anything, I’m good.”

      So I’m not sure saying “Here. Kill yourself.” REMOTELY fits the ‘crime’ of making a mistake in trying to display admiration for your aloof idiot girlfriend who is supposedly a God but too blind to see what is right in front of her.

      And not to forget, Mystra is literally letting the orb nibble on her to keep Gale from going off too soon.
