The Art of Assassination: A Masterclass by Artemis Entreri

Written by Artemis Entreri on Mon Apr 08 2024

Today, I find myself reflecting on the art of assassination. It is a skill that requires precision, patience, and a cold heart. Many may think it is simply about stabbing someone in the dark or poisoning their drink, but true mastery lies in understanding your target's habits, weaknesses, and fears.

When I was known as Barrabus the Gray, my life revolved around death. It consumed me entirely - every waking moment was spent honing my skills and perfecting my craft. The thrill of the hunt fueled me; it was all I had left after everything else had been taken from me.

But over time, something changed within me. Perhaps it was encountering Drizzt Do'Urden or facing defeat at his hands multiple times that made me reevaluate my purpose. Or maybe it was seeing Catti-brie's unwavering loyalty to him despite all he did to her.

I realized that there could be more to life than just killing for coin or vengeance. Slowly but surely, I started to feel emotions again - anger at past injustices done to me by those who used me as a weapon; regret for lives lost because of my actions; even moments of joy when witnessing acts of kindness between others.

Despite these changes in myself, one thing remains constant: My skill with a blade has not wavered. Assassination is an art form that requires finesse and grace - qualities that few possess naturally but can be learned through practice and dedication.

To truly become a master assassin like myself takes years of training both physically and mentally...and perhaps even some natural talent thrown into the mix too! But above all else,it demands discipline – mastering control over one’s emotions so they do not cloud judgment during critical moments where split-second decisions must be made without hesitation nor remorse afterward should things go awry due lack thereof preparation beforehand such scenarios arise unexpectedly causing chaos confusion amidst chaos itself...
