Bastions of the Gap
Badraa walked along in her rounds of the Eastern cliff guardhouses. The lottery winners this week seemed rattled, but that wasn't a surprise. She had never liked the system for choosing guards, and always wished she could have a select group that she could trust implicitly. In some ways she did, but not as large as she liked. Her core group, her Lieutenants, volunteered for guard service week after week if they were able.
Stopping at the final guardhouse, she saw Milo standing on the battlement and looking to the East. He was young, but seemed confident and eager. More importantly, he volunteered. She could use more people like him, and less people who were scared to do their job.
She would like to believe they would stand their ground in a dangerous assault, but she wondered.
