After her conversation with Mynian, Ash joins the duty guard during those wee hours when remaining awake is just that much harder. She is wearing her full field kit and while in such a place. Not being a member of the guard or reserves she takes no actions unless directed by the duty guard. Most of her focus is at the North gate.
