The city was a fortress, dozens of guards with spears and halberts were ready to put down a rebellion at any time.  At this time there were only a half dozen prisioners the ones who had been tried for their crimes were punished and released to the population again, or at worse killed for their crimes.  The ones currently awaiting trial, were varied.  A young pindaro warrior, who sat in his cell looking like a caged animal, ready to lash out at any who threatened him.  A pair of Shakarra, who sat in the same cage, their reptilian features a mixture of dinosaur and humanoid features watching you through large intelligent yellow eyes.  two theives who had been caught were kept in seperate cells, each was to be tried the next day.  The last was a cleric of Fritz who had been tried for inciting a revolt in a nearby village.
