Great Barrier

The Prydaen fled eastward from the homeland, pursued by the undead hoarde of the Necromancer Lyras. At the ruins of Journalai, Vael, who lead the Prydaens, called a halt. The priests and other magic users joined hands and formed a line a mile long. Through their combined efforts, a magical barrier was cast down from the sky, forming a wall between them and the undead. It has been said that the Great Barrier is "part magic, part god-wish" and that when the last of those who created it dies, the Barrier will fall. The Great Barrier is all that stands between the eastern lands and the undead minions of Lyras.
