Far Wall

Far Wall is a small island east of Port Tosa. Originally called East Green Isle.

Long a favorite of seaman for its deep waters it housed a small community of people who serviced the needs of commercial fishing just north of the City of Amber.

When it was seceded to the Kingdom of Wall the naval forces leveled the existing city. This at first was a shock to the nearly 3000 natives. However the Kingdom of Wall gave every resident a fortune in gold and mithril, and offered to resettle anyone who did not wish to remain and work for the new owners.

Half the residents left immediately.

The remaining half, Lead by Callos Retona and his family prepared to fight the matter in the court of Amber. However, Duke Fortunadus and King Alexandir Kos Korag negotiated with the remaining residents, showed them the dwellings they intended to build, and offered them lucrative employment doing much the same work they always had providing for the local and the incoming Tosain fishing fleets.

The residents were taken to the City of Wall and housed in royal grounds while the renovations were done.

New harbor facilities were imported. New Residences were created and the old residents found themselves living a life style far beyond their expectations.

While they still consider themselves Amberites they have begun to consider themselves Tosians too. Many have intermarried with new arrivals and the Tosian/ Amber connection is strong on this mainly commercial isle.

There is a lot of the information found in this Wiki concerning the Jeweled Amber game that is information available before the game. If however you come to play in the JR&WoB game consider this information the word on the street, the skinny, the whispers in the dark, the word around the campfire, the rumor i heard Dame Margot tell the Little King Michael in the kitchen, and the same as bold faced lies. Just sayin.
