The Garðr
The giant wall that surrounds the Forbannet Land is the largest construct within the realm of Niflheim. It is overseen by Vhalltur, Kalda, and Halland who work collectively to ensure that the wall is maintained and secured. The wall itself is 70 meters tall (229 Ft.) and is made out of the same materials that Asgard's wall is made out of. The materials are unknown but many believe that the rock used is the same rock that holds each of the realms up (many refer to this as bedrock) and has been imbued with magic by the constructor of the wall, who is an unknown giant.
The gates leading in and out of the Forbannet Land are also overseen by each of the three countries. Although these countries work together to ensure wall security, each country has their own policies when it comes to using their gates. Kalda does not open their gate unless it is a dire situation in that part of the lower inner wall has been damaged or other similar reasons. Vhalltur is similar to Kalda in their policy but additionally allow their gate to be opened in the case of prisoner transport, resource scavenging, or if hunters need out. Halland has strict oversight over their gate but open theirs the most due to Halland being the hub for hunters wishing to embark on hunts into the Forbannet Lands. These gates are maintained by dwarven engineers from Grimsey called the Bronse Portvakt (Bronze Gatekeepers).
Each country has their respective armies manning the wall as well as the gates. On top of the wall there are numerous countermeasures in place in the case that the wall gets attacked from the monsters in the Forbannet Land. These countermeasures are catapults, drop bombs, barrels of oil, and ballistas. The barrels of oil have many purposes with the main ones being to slick the side of the wall in the case that a monster attempts to climb it and to light fireballs that the catapults launch.
