The Sunderguard

The people of Sunderkeep, and everyone who keeps its fires lit.

Sunderkeep has stood for three hundred years, and not because of its walls. The walls fell twice. The keep stood because the people inside it looked after one another: the cook who feeds everyone whether they like it or not, the trader who is mostly fair, the sergeant who trains anyone who asks, and the warden who remembers every name.

The Sunderguard is what they call themselves when they are being grand about it. It is the smith and the scribe, the stable hand and the herald, and every champion who ever walked out of the gate and came back. Warden Isolde Varr leads them from a very big chair in the Great Hall, which she hates.

The keep has sent its people out along every road: an outrider to the canyon, a forge to the mountain, a watch to the pass and a lantern to the fen. Most of the trouble on those roads is the keep's own, too. Its dead army still marches in the Sunscar, and its old court magister is teaching the dead to walk in Mournfen. The Sunderguard would like to tidy up after itself.
