Gonna build a wall and make Ethne pay for it

It shouldn't be a surprise when Wake misses the mark, but she keeps her smile encouraging, gesturing to the angles on the different stones, "It's a bit more involved than just shoving them in, you've got to see where they fit..." She picked up a light piece of slate and angled it, wedging it into a gap between two larger stones, shoring up the wall, before indicating which stone should go next, it would need to be rotated to marry up with the planes of the other, "You've got to try and keep it level across the top or the next big wind will blow it back over."

With her attention diverted to predators though, she cocked her head, "Some of the bigger and stupider perhaps, but not foxes or felines," Anything with a bit of agility would be over the wall with a hop, "Though imagine showing up to a raid and needing to climb a bloody wall, you want to quickly be in and out, which way are you going to go? Walls can be topped with spikes, you can dig out trenches out of sight, it can serve for defenses, you can have sentries posted along the length of it to signal an attack, it narrows an oppositions opportunity to get one over you." She selected another stone, "As long as you build it right..." She wondered if he'd have any questions.
