I'm definitely thirding this! The only reason I thought about ascending Astarion is so he can be in the sun! Yes there's the whole sexy domineering side, but that's like empty calories in a way. His whole progress gets shoved down the drain, and it's repeating a cycle of abuse that spawned him! I want a good ending where the player is at least given something better than Astarion ducking off into the shadows by himself! That sucks and honestly I feel like crying when I see it, it's like he's being punished for giving up power, twice! At least let the player follow him to the shadows and comfort him, vowing to find a way to let him be in the sun again, some mystic artifact or magic spell, etc. Something! Karlack you at least get to go off with her to hell and help her fight her battle, why can't we help Astarion fight his?
