The Wall of the North

Not far west of the village of Gaivoutna, in the northernmost reaches of the Seldarin Mountain range, is a pass. It is one of only two places where a large number of people could cross easily through the mountains, and is the only one not part of a dwarven clan holding.
Blocking this pass is a great stone wall, nearly 7 stories tall. It has stood tall for many generations; the story of its construction has been lost to the mists of time, though it was undoubtedly built to prevent those who would march freely between Yeto and Asanon. 
The people of Gaivoutna believed that it was their tribe's sacred duty to defend this wall, particularly against their eastern neighbours and to that end, they maintained a constant guard. To the east of the wall, a permanent encampment of the Hobgoblin Army was stationed, keeping a vigilant eye upon the defenses. Both peoples lived in fear of an invasion from the other, and kept vigilant guard on the site over countless long centuries.
In the year 4653 the conflict was finally brought to an end thanks to the combined efforts of Mako Murakami, Caelan Svendsen, and, following the latter's death, his brother Kai Silvuu. The treaty passed thanks to their efforts formally ended the millennia old cold-war and brought about a tentative peace and unity between the two peoples, and to this day, a symbolic mixed guard of both Hobgoblins and Gaivoutnans is maintained upon the wall in recognition.Category:LandmarkCategory:NorthlandsCategory:Yeto
