Upper Embankment

The Upper Embankment is a naturally-rounded river bank that runs along the southern end of Noble City in Lovia, through neighborhoods such as Long Road and the Industrial Park. It stands between the densely inhabited region of the city and the Beaver River outlet. The knoll functions as a sort of water barrier, preventing the Beaver River from overflowing into the Noble City, which explains how it had been given its name.

History
Geographers have determined that the hill was formed by some unique sort of naturally occuring splash erosion, over hundreds of years, coming to a halt shortly before Lovia's colonization.

Their were times when Beaver River outlet did, in fact, overflow, spilling over the embankment and into the southern portion of Noble City. The damage caused in recent history was never to catastrophic, however, considering that the Long Road portion of the city was more natural and less populated. Rarely did the river overflow past that point, as the natural soil always had a tendency to absorb the water.
