"Hello, and welcome to the Dusk Rose, where your every pleasure is our desire. We are so pleased you could join us here. My name is Vanessa. I am the senior courtesan of the Rose, and I'll be your host for the evening.

"If it pleases you, I would like to introduce a few of the girls in attendance tonight. The mouse maiden is Madeleine, who is rather new to our family, but is learning swiftly. The primate is Tullia, who has called the Rose home for a good many years, and is expert in the most exciting pursuits of pleasure. My feline friend here is Bridgette, who finds her art in the sensual, relaxing practices of erotic massage and other skills that require a tender touch.

"Behind them is the lounge, where you may acquaint yourself with the girls before making your decision for the night. I assure you they will be attentive to your needs, and I will be nearby to negotiate terms once you have made your selection.

"We hope you enjoy your stay here. Please, make yourself comfortable."
