The city of Southwatch is set atop a long, low granite bluff that commands a view of the plain all around. Particularly visible is the huge, seven-hundred-foot height of the Aegis Wall a stone's throw to the south and its confluence with Stalwart Falls where the river thunders under that protective barrier. Indeed, the town itself was built foremost as a fontier outpost to protect the nearby Forest District from assault through, over, or under the Wall.
