A nondescript square building that has room for two guards that change shift every 8 hours.  There's a fireplace inside, food enough for a week and a large earthenware jug of water for cooking and drinking.
Guard Shack, Outside Tower
guard
a knight, captain, or general that may oversee the guards.
I am the captain overseeing the guards at my prison. We had to relocate recently due to the fight breaking open part of our facilities. I've been very strict in moving the prisoners to the new location. Some of the guards don't seem to like me, but honestly I don't care.
All quiet, praise the Maker.  I'm not sure if I could have managed another prison riot after how messy the last one was. Agreed captain, we were lucky to make it out of that one alive. I just don't understand why men like that think that cutting off another prisoner's fingers is *fun*?  Surely they realize their situation won't improve if they keep doing such atrocious acts Sir I assume they feel as if they have nothing to lose. The Queen herself has offered pardon and restitution for those who behave themselves.  They've a chance at another life, a chance out of their own misery, if they would just seize it. It's just not in their blood captain. Can I get you a drink captain? Aye, I could use something to part my thirst after a long night like that.  Thank you, lad. Absolutely sir. Here you go. Ah - very light and refreshing.  No aftertaste at all, this brew.  But enough about me - how are the wife and children settling in? I know this post isn't as cushy as where you were last stationed. Oh, they're holding up well sir. They are very easy going. Ah, she's a keeper then, that one.  Cherish a wife that will help you in this line of work, lad.  They're few and far between, let me tell you. Oh yes captain, I cherish her completely.
