Once Queen Lyndette took the throne of Crestfall, her first order of business was reorganizing the Royal Guard so they could station themselves across Lyrea and return the rule of law to its neglected towns and cities. However, she kept many of them at Crestfall Castle, and among them were the Queensguard, stoic defenders of the Queen and her throne room.
