Certainly it is not needed for them to carry and being wise, they would most likely have other weapons on their person. That is just my thoughts on the topic.<br/><br/>The honor binding approach is interesting but that seems like an excessive amount of work to place upon the city guard with the arrival of so many persons that would require the thread. Just my opinion anyways.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Excessive yes.  Though with the city likely occupied to bursting it should be much quicker to find the person who has broken the peace binding in an area that has experienced recent violence than starting from scratch with little to go on.  With this many people in the city the City Guard is going to need a bit of help.<br/><br/>Do you have an alternate suggestion Artemis?
