	'''From ''[[SLAY 2: HATCHET MAN]]''''': No delicate features and details here, no sir. The rectangular Bastion was devoid of such fragilities. Four plain, gray stone walls anchored at the corners by four plain. octagonal gray towers. The main gate, open, with portcullis raise. The eighty-foot-tall, twenty-foot-thick walls held storage, some offices, and lodging for the poverty-vowed rixators, adjurators, monachi, and low-level administrators. Behind those walls, taller than the hundred-foot-tall towers, rose the blocky, bulky keep — where the real business of the Bastion got done.
