The North Wall, also known as The Queen's Wall, was built during the height of the Kingdom of Saxvenus, when that country was constantly raiding the shores of Norfolk. The Saxvenii were constantly landing raider parties in their longships, which led to the sacking and razing of numerous villages. The raiders took loot and slaves, but never tried to hold the cities, instead opting to return to the safety of their island. Eventually however the raids became so frequent that adventuring Saxvenii warriors began to establish themselves as "kings" of small castles in the northern reaches of Norfolk, Sterling being one of the most powerful. Queen Greenwood, frustrated at being unable to defend her realm, and at the lack of her chief commanders being able to devise a proper strategy, placed Lord Cairney in charge of Norfolk and issued him an ultimatum - defend Brettania from further attacks or face the guillotine. In response Lord Cairney commissioned the construction of the Queen's Wall, stretching along the present southern boundary of Norfolk. A stone defensive fortification, it measured roughly 3 meters wide by 5-6 meters high. The wall stopped the raiders, who traveled on foot, forcing a change in strategy and the slow crumbling of the raider kingdoms. The Brettish were able to slowly regain the north, and even to overtake Saxvenus. This ultimately led to the wall being abandoned. Its legacy, however, remained, and today the region is known as Northwall, a passing reference to the Queen's Wall. Today the wall is a protected heritage site and serves as a tourist attraction.
