Although she was only Sergeant and under the command of Acton of Fenrigh, everyone on the Watch knew that Ahuda actually made all important choices and Sir Acton agreed to them. Around October of 247 HE, Ahuda accepted the position of Watch Sergeant for Evening Watch in Flash District. Her position in the Lower City was then passed on to Goodwin. She was of Carthaki descent and rumour has it that her family were slaves.
