Palace Guard (Sedunn) (Pacifica)
The Palace Guard (Sedunnic: Teivvte'lete) is the contingents of infantry or cavalry soldiers charged with guarding the Lesser and Greater Palaces in Grovne, Sedunn, which is the residence of the Dellm and the government respectively. The Guard is not not purely ceremonial but a fully operational military force providing sentries and patrols on foot around the clock every day of the year. The duty of forming a Palace Guard is rotated by all standing and reserve forces in the Sedunnic Armed Forces, but the standing 13th Guard Infantry Battalion form a majority of Palace Guards.
The Palace Guard traces its roots back to the ancient Im knights that were the first Dellms' personal lifeguard, nominally stationed in Grovne. In 1745 the Im knights were absorbed by the 1st Lifeguard Regiment, which was reorganised into a brigade in 1948, of which the 13th Guard Infantry Battalion is a part today.
