I'd like to know, if the Miliarius (sic) from the Ssethregore books is the royal guard of that nation, has the Black Talons provided any for King Osric?
The King's special guard in Milandir is called the Dolphin Guard. Usually there are seven of them (barring death, retirement etc). We saw them briefly in the module Judgement. So there is no organized group of milarius who defend the King. TMK. But there is also no reason why a Black Talon who was a milarius couldn't aspire to reach that high. The king also has a champion which was under Osric and presumably remains under Gerhart the Warlord of the Black Talons.
I would note that it is my understanding that the Black Talons are "pledged" to the Duchy of Tralia and the val'Holryn rather than directly to the crown of Milandir (somewhere in the LA talk list is a post explaining that the High Mother holds the rank of Marchioness just under the val Holryn Duke). In most practical terms that probably doesn't mean much, but if there is a "ceremonial" or special task force of milarius it might instead be assigned to the Duke.
