The Wall

The Wall is a structure that has been built across the City surrounding the Old Town. The build date of the Wall is unknown, but it was between 2018 and 2036.

Any incursions of people from the other side are treated as a matter to be investigated by the police force.^[1]

Citizens in the City are advised to stay on this side of the Wall.^[2]

The Wall is monitored by a Watch Commander.^[3]

It's assumable that the destroyed state of the city across from the Wall indicates some sort of disaster occurred there, and that it forms some sort of quarantine zone. However, dialogue also implies it to be a sort of excommunication area.
