But this kid, he's got what it takes, and he'll make a great heir to the family business, don't you think?

I became a retainer because I admired my grandparents, not because it's a family business.

He's going to take over the family business along with his wife and daughter.

You ran away because you didn't like the family business.

Or inherit the family business.

I'm from a family of assassins. So they're all assassins.

For the first time since taking over the family business, I may have killed someone who wasn't my target.

I'm still blown away by the backstory behind all of her extravagant thievery!

Ugh, ehh, yes. My youngest son. Sadly, he fled the family business. Went to seek fortune in the big city.

My husband Thonar handles all our family's business. He's an important man.

Well... okay. My father owns the Winking Skeever. But it's the family business, so it'll be mine when he kicks off.

He had hoped one of my elder brothers would take up the hoe and grape knife. Alas, he proved a tyrant. All eight fled, wanting nothing to do with winemaking.

I graduated Oxenfurt Academy and returned home to find myself up to my ears in work. I set my own plans aside, then abandoned them. But I regret nothing. I've grown to love the trade.
