A bailiff (from Middle English baillif, Old French baillis, bail "custody, charge, office"; cf. bail, based on the adjectival form, baiulivus, of Latin bajulus, carrier, manager) is a manager, overseer or custodian; a legal officer to whom some degree of authority or jurisdiction is given. Bailiffs are of various kinds and their offices and duties vary greatly.
Another official sometimes referred to as a bailiff was the vogt: see Vogt and Vogt (Switzerland). In the Holy Roman Empire a similar function was performed by the Amtmann.
Bailli (12th-century French bailif, "administrative official, deputy") was derived from a Vulgar Latin term *bajulivus meaning "official in charge of a castle", i.e. a royal castellan.
Bailiff was the term used by the Normans for what the Saxons had called a reeve: the officer responsible for executing the decisions of a court. The duty of the bailiff would thus include serving summonses and orders, and executing all warrants issued out of the corresponding court. The district within which the bailiff operated was called his bailiwick, even to the present day. Bailiffs were outsiders and free men, that is, they were not usually from the bailiwick they were responsible for.

Plot: Trust: Just a five-letter word, but one that carries more weight in this world than any could fathom. What happens when sabotage, deceit, and betrayal push trust to the breaking point? When Midael and Abaddon, two enhanced humans (Chimaeras: Midael with 15' long metal wings that shoots out like daggers, Abaddon/Job with a 15' long metal tail can manipulate energy), become part of a high-stakes and violent game of cat-and-mouse.

Soon, the two must change their own agendas as they are dragged further into a chaotic realm of hatred, illusion, and death. When the pieces finally fall into place, where will their allegiances lie? As trust becomes merely a myth, will they find themselves becoming part of the very organizations that sought to use them, or will they break free and seek out destinies of their own making?

At the same time he plans on getting some girl to enter a school essay contest and split the $50 winning prize money with her.

Welkom in ons midden
Welkom in dit huis
Nu je eindelijk weer hier bent
Welkom, jongen
Welkom thuis
We waren ongerust
We hebben lang gewacht
We hadden nooit gedacht
Dat je ons ooit kon verlaten…
Kom aan tafel en vertel ons je verhalen
Was je handen als je wilt
We sliepen jaren slecht
We dwaalden door de nacht
We hadden niet de kracht
Om je voor altijd los te laten
Kom aan tafel en vertel ons je verhalen
Eet ons brood en drink zoveel je kan
Welkom in ons midden
Welkom in dit huis
Nu je eindelijk weer hier bent
Welkom, jongen
Welkom thuis
Niemand ging ooit weg
Zonder iets als afscheid
We dachten dat de noorderzon
Voor ons niet echt bestond
Maar welkom, jongen
Welkom thuis
Kom aan tafel en vertel ons je verhalen
Spaar ons niet voor wat je hebt gezien
Welkom in ons midden
Welkom in dit huis
Nu je eindelijk weer terug bent
Welkom, jongen
