The Gods' Quiver

The Gods' Quiver was formed in 1363 of the Sixth Astral Era in response to the aggression of the Ixal a year prior, when they were expelled from the Black Shroud. The Gods' Quiver exist to ensure that if Gridania was ever attacked again, they would have a method of defending themselves. The Gods' Quiver started as a small unit for the city-state, however it now has more than 1800 members, split over twelve units at roughly a hundred and fifty apiece, with Archers filling most of the ranks. Their headquarters, Quiver's Hold, is shared with the Archers' Guild.

The members of the Gods' Quiver act as Gridania's eyes, guarding the forest from forign threats from their watchspires. They must survey both the land and the sky, as the Ixal will frequently employ war balloons in their assaults. Unlike the Wood Wailers, the members of the Gods' Quiver rotate through zones to learn the lay of the land of the entire forest, so they can efficiently protect the Twelveswood from any and all threats.
