Great Wall. Art by Sandra Everingham.

The Great Wall is a huge stone wall that cuts off the Western Wastes of southwestern Jamuraa, neatly separating the desert below from the forest in the west.

It is not a natural-hewn cliff, but a hand-laid wall more than two hundred feet tall. At the top lies a forest of pines, so high that snow dusts the rocks. The wall runs for miles, curving inward. It is made of rough stones, bigger than houses, carefully stacked and chinked with smaller rocks, not hewn by a hammer. Each layer of stone was set back a small interval.

Hazezon Tamar speculated that the wall must have been built with magic by wizards or planeswalkers, long before the Ice Age.[1]
