Taylor was walking out with his girlfriend hand in hand and holding his sister in the other.

"Thank you, sir," he said. "I promise not to get drunk."

Jac goes over to a cabinet, gets out a bottle of whisky and a small cup, and pours one out for the kid. “Here. Come get me if you need more, but I’m going to rest in my room.”

Herald stood. Perhaps it was a good time to attack.

He exited the shop.

"Okay," he said. He took a small sip. "Ew. I think I'm going to rest as well. This stuff is nasty. I never want to grow up."

He decided not to bother them, but he needed to talk to him soon.

Now he could tell someone was looking at him. Taylor looked back and saw jectree. He stopped sensing it was important. He handed his sister to halley and walked over. "Jec what's wrong?"

"I'm not gonna move. I dont wanna be rich. I want to be a cop. I want to protect people. I have my reasons and I'm not gonna give them up."

"You also wanna rescue innocents? Listen to me. Give the money, the estate to charity, I don't care. What I need you to do..." he drew himself up dramatically. "is 'marry' the king's daughter."

"Hear me out." he said firmly, taking the younger man by the shoulders.

"The king wants his daughter married to one of the people. That's why he announced it to the crowd, instead of quietly marrying her off to some old nobleman. You're a police officer, with a perfect record and outstanding reputation. What better person for her to marry? We'll stage a wedding, and as part of the dowry, you'll demand the other girl, I don't know, as some sort of concubine. When all's said and done, you'll fade back into quiet obscurity, divorce her, marry your girlfriend, and give the two girls to me."

He groans. "That's. A. Stupid idea! I.. i won't be a cop anymore! I need to be a cop. You don't understand. I need it. I need to. I can't quit this job."

"You'll still be a cop! In fact, you'll probably get promoted and whatnot. If the king wants favor with the people, who better to marry his daughter to then a police officer? It's genius!"

He went to object but sighed. "I have to ask my girlfriend. Cause im not just gonna dump he-" 

"Im ok with it." A ladies voice says. His girlfriend was eavesdropping.

Jac stalks off to his room, pulls down the window, and closes his eyes. Sleep eluded him for awhile,  but he eventually drifted of.

As he walked around, he noticed various knick-knacks, including, but not limited to: a small globe, a weird looking device with strung up metal balls, what appears to be a family photo, and various textbooks.
