A Geography Of Haarth: Shield-Wall Of Night

The Wall of Night Series map; design by Peter Fitzpatrick

The A Geography of Haarth post series is traversing the full range of locales and places from The Wall of Night world of Haarth. Each locale is accompanied by a quote from either The Heir Of Night, The Gathering Of The Lost, or both.

This week we’re still in “S.” (And an excellent thing that is, for is not ‘S’ a paragon of letters? ;-))

Shield-Wall of Night: also known as the Wall of Night, the vast mountain range that protects the world of Haarth from the Swarm of Dark; garrisoned by the Derai Alliance.

“We garrison the Shield-wall of Night,” they replied. “We keep the long watch for that hour when the Swarm of Dark will rise again and seek to overrun this world, as it overran so many others beyond the stars. When that day and that hour come, we will stand forth against the power of the Swarm, as we have always done.”
