"Memoirs of a Listener: The Initiation P1"

Snippet:
He completed a full circle as he inched over to me and knelt down to a humble level at my feet, as if to propose marriage. I am convinced that this was deliberate- Speakers, I gathered during my previous career, are notorious for using their irresistible charm and good looks to recruit new members.

'Charming' is an understatement to describe this particular Speaker, and I must say that what I could see finally in proper light was the full glory of a very handsome man. He wasn't terribly young, but the subtle hints of an approaching middle age actually flattered the overall structure of his strong profile. His brown eyes, enriched by the light of the fire, stared softly up into mine as he continued to use the power of velvet words and movements to soothe out my inhibitions more effectively than a Stout of Dibella.

"I have a good feeling about you. I am certain that you will arrive at the realization that this is your destiny; when you do, you will take the first step of this journey by going to the Inn of Ill Omen, traveling south on the green road. There you will find a man named Rufio. Kill him, and your initiation into the Dark Brotherhood will be complete." He brought out from an inner pouch of his robe a beautiful ebony dagger, smelling fresh from the fire used to forge it, and held it out delicately in his gloved hands. "Perhaps with this token from the Dark Brotherhood. It is a virgin blade and thirst for blood."
