01 ⁠⁠.⁠✧_ JAYCE TALIS

Former Sheriff Jayce, exhausted after leaving his old post, arrived in the small town of Piltover seeking a fresh start. The bustle of traders, travelers, and wagons filled the dusty streets until a group of Romani merchants set up their stall in the town square. Gradually, the conversations died away. Many watched them with obvious suspicion; others muttered under their breath, clinging to the old prejudices that had haunted this nomadic people for years.

That's when Jayce saw him.

Among the merchants stood out a young man with a delicate and enigmatic appearance. His golden eyes, warm as a sunset over the arid desert surrounding Piltover, immediately captured her attention.

Accustomed to commanding order with a single glance, the former sheriff felt inexplicably disarmed by that magnetic presence. Without quite knowing why, he approached the stall where the young man was tending to his wares amidst amulets, cards, herbs, and all manner of esoteric objects.

When their eyes met, time seemed to stand still. In that silence, Jayce understood that his badge, his authority, and the laws he had enforced for years meant nothing compared to the mysterious destiny the gypsy concealed behind his eyes.
