I suppose. It's been changing recently. But where I was from there was three units, scouts for...scouting, [words hard] the garrison for defense and making sure the civilians are well and able to evacuate and the military police. [If Edelgard thought about that she might notice, that the police was slightly redundant given the garrison's role.]
[She thinks for a moment.] There's the council that some people joined a while back after the Rathmore stuff. They might know something. And the Bracer guild... [It was worth asking the next time she had a chance. Not that she was volunteering for anything important. Mikasa would much prefer taking orders, thanks.
But speaking of being on guard.]
Have you been teaching Leslie to defend herself if she needs to? [Mikasa hadn't tried actually teaching. But there'd been the awkward encouragement to keep going when she was tired. But she'd been told she had too much energy to really train anyone.]
The guild I don't know. However, I am on that council, actually. It's something to think about, though I doubt that Parliament would like a militarized organization in the city.
[She was one of the first.
But, Mikasa brings up something more immediate.]
And I have not. I fight with...[She points towards a weapon mounted over the fireplace. An enormous battle-axe.] A weapon larger than her.
My companion, Hubert, however...has been teaching her subtle arts of self defense.
Oh... [Well...huh. Enjoy your complete silence for a moment. Because knowing one person on the council was one thing. Especially because it was Sokie, who didn't really give the impression of someone ]in charge. Edelgard, seemed more in line with what Mikasa the job.
So she just nods. Looking up at the axe.]
I don't know. She might be fine... [Nah. She's joking. Leslie wouldn't even be able to drag that around.]
That's good. She was struggling to run around not long ago. [At her part time job at the winery.]
I'll try to make sure she eats. [And Edelgard got a small nod. It wasn't quite a goodbye but it was as close as she was getting. Then Mikasa was going back to waiting for Leslie.]

Is there a group or is just be ready?

Just be ready. Though now that you say something, perhaps some sort of Mirrorbound response unit wouldn't be amiss. A topic for discussion at least.

[Poor girl.]
In any event. Thank you, Mikasa, for looking out for her. I have a few things to attend to, and she should be back shortly.
I'll leave you two be.
