Part 4/9:
In response to the lingering dread of the White Walkers, the Wall was constructed, symbolizing the strength and unity of the First Men and the Children. Towering over 700 feet, this massive fortification was more than a barrier; it was infused with ancient magic, designed to protect the Realms of Men from dark forces. Bran the Builder, a revered figure and a pivotal architect of this monumental structure, collaborated with giants and the Children to create a bastion of defense.
The Wall also gave rise to the Night’s Watch, a brotherhood dedicated to guarding against threats beyond. Yet even with such vigilance, the past hung heavy as tales of the ancient White Walkers persisted through generations.
