Night Watch at Golden Leg Tower
The imagined night watch at Kuldjala Tower helps explain the attention demanded by guarding a dark city wall.
A guard on the wall had to observe the surroundings before modern lighting and communication eased the work. Wind, a distant voice or an unfamiliar step might call for investigation. Kuldjala Tower offers a setting for understanding that duty, but the experience of one named watchman or a supernatural encounter is not documented by this entry. The uneasy atmosphere grows from a real task: noticing danger before it reached a gate.
