Run down and smelly, the barracks houses a dozen of the king's guardsmen.  It's made of wooden slats nailed together somewhat hastily, and the brisk air from the outside whistles through some small cracks between the panels.  There are six beds in an open sleeping quarter, with a wooden chest at the end of the bed where the guardsmen store their personal belongings.

As Kingsguard my duty is to protect my Lord. I am sworn to defend him into death and beyond. My honor is my life.
All is well in the Kingdom. At least on my patrol Say, do you know why there is a wench lying on one of the beds here in our barracks? I think Pete brought her home in a drunken stupor. Good old Pete! That is something he would do! What a character. He always gets the scary ones too, this one is missing a tooth. At least she's no threat like those ogres we faced last week. I think I can put away this shield and finally get some rest. Though the smell in here is worse than ever! Its always bad, it's even worse when it gets warmer out. It seems like there is another stench I haven't smelled before. I think it's coming from inside my helmet. Here, I'll remove it. Can you take a look inside and see if anything's in there? Did you put your lunch in it or something? Not that I know of. Look closer, there might be a strange creature that crawled in there. Is that a stink bug I'm glad that's all it is. With all these attacks lately, I've grown a bit paranoid. I sometimes even think something is going to jump out of that chest over there.
