Oopsie.
Sarajin, God of Wisdom and Enlightenment, through his messenger Matt, has caused an epiphany on my part such that I suddenly remember what I saw.
Phooey on me!
I only saw the outer bailey briefly, but saw nothing that was not stone or slate(roofs). I saw about fifty men, but didn't see everything. The ones I saw were about forty in mail with roundshields, broadswords and spears with the rest carrying longbows but only wearing ring byrnies.
The garrison appears to be drilling the local militia as well, so they must have some confidence in the loyalty of the locals. As to whether loyalty is based on trust or fear...
In addition at least three companies left on the warboats about two days past, nor can I be certain when they will return.
The black surcoats with white boar badges are the emblem of the 1st Legion, which is the only one I saw.
They say I am mad...they make a good case.
