Summary
Routine had always been a detestable word in Cicero's mind. Usually, because it revolved around his mind's torment and his withering sanity. Even in the best of days, all he could do was dedicate himself to a magnificent, hideous corpse. Now, though, he finds himself pleasantly enjoying it.
A full year since his arrival in Skyrim has passed, where all manner of event had come to pass. Now standing as a proper equal to his brother and sister, he relishes the sensation he once knew but had allowed himself to forget: a living Brotherhood. Though the going isn't always smooth, a returned will means a revivified dignity. And though the Listener's abscenses grow lengthier and more frequent, Cicero finds himself as steady as he can be as the Brotherhood's Keeper. Unforunately, this does nothing for his relentless pain and solace.

Summary
Training, contracts, fighting, assassinations, socializing, conversations. With a considerably more normal routine, Cicero rediscovers more and more pieces of the man who he thought he was. Though still his Night Mother's loyal Keeper, it's the Listener who manages to break him from that rigid shell of madness, self-pity and self-hate. Unfortunately, a deadly sword like that cuts both ways, and her absence is the most acute wound he's made to suffer time and time again.
Exhausted and defeated, the Brotherhood's resident alchemist brews him a concoction for deeper sleep and peace of mind, much to his relief. Then again, life has never once played straight with Cicero, so why should his dreams be any different?
Sequel to Fool's Journey.

Summary
A decade came and went since his last contract. A decade since he killed the laughing jester, a decade since his prey had overcome him, possessed his every whim. Perhaps he had killed since then, but to answer a Black Sacrament... there's nothing Cicero wanted more. Nor was there anything he feared more. Even more so to be accompanied by the Listener, both leader and partner. To be in his element should surely do him good, and yet... a house divided, a house conquered. His great struggle will be to fight enemies both within and without. If nothing else, boredom will not be the death of him.
Sequel to A Jester's Fear of Peace.

Summary
Few assassins can say they have been inducted into the dreadful, prestigious Dark Brotherhood. Fewer still can say they have survived not one, but multiple Purifications of its Sanctuaries. One jester has seen it all. The peak, the fall, the rebirth, and the messy in-betweens of its fateful life. But at what cost can one be so frequented by death, but never chosen by her? The insane start sounding like the sane, and it's all Cicero can do to keep it together through it all.
The first of a series of short-stories recounting Cicero's journey, starting with his past and his time in Skyrim.
