| A true hodgepodge of people. Many that wander to Prevalen are taken in by the Arches. Although other factions will press those that look promising into service, many here are simply lost, broken, or hiding.

| The wall is a common place for skirmishes and fights, as the towers provide the best view around Prevalen when the Harvest begins.
