"Or that's what's usually suppose to be the case..." The guard says while gazing down at the Sergeant. The Sergeant was a young man who looks like he might be still in his late teens. Only now do you notice he seems quite a bit younger than the other guards who appear quite a bit more seasoned. "Berdem, was the son of a local noble. His family didn't want him to take this command. It was his first and they felt he should accept an assignment closer to home. But Berdem wanted to prove himself to others that he was more than just his family name. So he accepted the Magistrates offer to lead the guard despite most of us thinking he was far too green. But it looks like he had spine after all. Berdem could have just stood back and ordered us to fight but he fought along side us. For that he deserves respect."

The guard who spoke to Selina earlier approaches Selina. It's not easy to understand what he's saying so Simon translates... "Excuse me ma'am, have you given any more thought to our request for your leadership?"
