Beguilers
“I felt different about it this time, and I didn’t know why. Something that had happened to me since I had last heard it had opened up some potential in my soul and now, as I listened to the varying tones of the bird’s declarations, I felt that the understanding of them might, after all, be within my grasp.

I kept further east than I had before, determined to avoid another encounter with Shirsha and her beguiler.MoreLess
