The steward, Chahar, chose a location in the northeast corner of the Outer Fortress for the squat toilets.
The location was far from the Mountain Forest Castle gate, separated from the Inner Castle by a wall, and a considerable distance from the main keep where Ronin lived. There was no need to worry about any odors drifting over.
After spending the last few days with him, Chahar had become well aware of his lord's obsession with cleanliness. For instance, Ronin had to take a bath every day and have his clothes washed and changed daily. He was even more fastidious than some young noble ladies.
But Chahar didn't find this strange at all.
Every noble had their unique quirks. A quiet habit like Ronin's made him quite easy to serve.
Digging a pit, placing a ceramic vat inside, and then laying wooden planks on top—the simple squat toilet was complete.
However, there was no time to build a shed today, so for now, it was just an open-air latrine.
