"I'll let him know. The youth are strange in what they think is good for them. He takes after his mother in that." She faltered slightly and then continued "Anyways. Thank you. See you around...?" She ask, looking for a name

 

But technically she is forced to. Ahem.

Yes she is technically forced to I admit. But she wouldn’t (otherwise) be mistreated

Yes and no? It's weird? I presume It's a big honor here, to become the concubine of the king. So she's hypothetically willing, maybe. People did get forced into it by their families.

Maverick walks to the coffee shop and stands outside it, considering his options.

@Spark of Hope

 

Gerald, miraculously behind the counter again, waves her in, and does the same for the man standing outside. "Welcome to The Flame, what can I get you?" An orange cat jumps off a shelf and paces around Lark.

“No not rape. He….” Taylor fails to come up with an explanation. “He is helping her by… she lives at the castle so and ….” He sighs his face falling. “Jacree. I will admit i do not support that but understand i am a captain. I cannot go by and let a threat to the king walk around.”

Taylor nods. “Yes. Flame. But the flame scares people. And thats not good. Is there a way to hide Flame?”

"Well, that's a shame. Tell you what. I'll be a good little citizen if you walk free,  and..." he dug in his poket, pulling out a cigar. "give me a light."

Taylor sighs. “I hope you understand this.. but i cant let you go now. You’ve already said that you would hurt the king, we cant let a threat be free.”

"Okay, then." he said calmly, digging a knife out of his pocket. "You should really search your prisoners, by the way." he said, striding to the door, and picking the lock.

Taylor grabs his wrist and twists the knife out. He knocks his feet out and pins him on the ground. “Please dont make this hard.”

Yes, law. But the people are allowed to express their opinions so long as they don’t act violently. He may have expressed violent wishes, but the castle grounds are so guarded that it would be practically impossible for an assassin to slip in, and even if one did they wouldn’t make it five paces before being captured

He smiled. "Of course." he replied, tossing him the knife. "Keep the cigar. By the way, after all is said and done... I hope we can be friends."

“after all there shouldnt be anything needed to be done. Just get you a prohibition officer. If you’d like i could be that. And then you go about your business until we decide you’re no longer a threat. And nothing happens and it’s all dandy. Right?” He catches the knife.

It’s okay

So, Twinstorm got arrested for making a disturbance before the king’s speech and is being released on parole

A small rebellion was quelled, and to celebrate the king announced that he would start looking for suitors for his daughter Zera

A poor man is angry with the king, but doesn’t want to fight back

People are hanging out at a coffee shop

Gerald again smiled at another newcomer, the orange cat again pacing by their feet. "Well hey there! Good amount of people coming in, that announcement must have left every one drained, huh? I'll admit, His Majesty makes me quite thirsty when he does his spiel, haha. Anyways, what can I do for ya today?"

“Hello sir,” Jac said, trying to be polite. “Can i just get mocha?”
