The guard headquarters was a four story building that was on the main road, surrounded by a short log fence. It was set back further because the front yard was used for training. It did not take a genius to figure this out because the yard was full of straw and wooden dummies for practicing, and a few guards were outside swinging their swords. There was even a large circular patch of dirt that a few other guards were at, two of which were sparring in the center. To be honest, I kind of wanted to test them out myself to see how strong they were, but I held back. Not that they would let me anyway but it was still fun to think about it.
"By the way, my name is Jack." The guard, who had been quiet this entire time, suddenly spoke up. "I forgot to introduce myself, which was rude of me."
