Cloud Giant Warden
A cloud hold sits above the weather and has one route up, and the warden holds it. She stands in the wet air for a watch that lasts weeks and asks each arrival its business once. She checks the replies against a list she has memorized and never written down. Unannounced visitors have not gone back down that route in three centuries.
