A Request to Story Modders (new ideas to expand the Baldur's Gate Story)

As everyone knows the characters of Baldur's Gate and sometimes yourself the main character have epilogues that continue the adventure off-screen
What I propose to the Story Modders if you're feeling inspired to make mods based on those ideas by creating Epilogue Chapters that continue after Throne of Bhaal if Gorion's Ward is involved in some way.
=========================================================================
One Example:
Viconia DeVir Romance Path Ending or Non-Romance
Basically exploring the events that happens in the romance epilogue (it was later clarified she did live according to later DnD materials), and the introduction of a new character half-drow as described.
(Plus Underdark Adventures in Baldur's Gate is heavily underutilized)
Ditto for every character that has a official epilogue
=========================================================================
I'm thinking like how you could make the epilogue chapters work is have it all take place years later in a room that Gorion's Ward stays in at Candlekeep reading his journal regarding what happened to everyone.
From there you choose the character you want to play as while reading the journal, and Gorion's Ward will not be the one you'll be playing, but instead his companions unless Gorion's Ward was present for that epilogue like the case for Viconia if she went down the neutral route and romanced (or non-romanced for a slight story change).
Once the epilogue chapter is completed you're transported back to the room Gorion's Ward is staying.
Eventually a true final chapter is unlocked and time goes forward where Gorion's Ward is 136 years old and has become the statesman of Baldur's Gate to reflect the book, and fight against Viekang and a final battle with the Bhaalspawn Slayer. It was left ambiguous who won that fight, so that leaves story Modders to play it in two different ways or other alternate paths.
Interesting to note about Viekang he was present during the Tradesmeet events, so there is wiggle room to include him there.
Alternatively you don't have to complete the Epilogue Chapters and head straight to the Epilogue Chapter of Gorion's Ward involving Viekang
Personally I would actually like to see in alternate route where you can fight Bhaal himself as it would be fitting end to the saga completely since it states that Bhaal didn't get his full divinity back, so can he be slayable.
=========================================================================
By the way everyone its been a long time since I've posted here, and I was curious on the state of mega-modding since BigWorld is no longer a thing, so I'm not sure how I can go about putting in multiple mods without some kind of conflicts happening.
