Wall was originally born to a small merchant family and could be counted as being a part of the grassroots of society. He'd learned to fight in his youth; when he was 17 or 18 his family ran into unexpected trouble and not only lost the family fortune, but also owed a huge debt. He was left with no choice but to travel across the country as an adventurer, risking life and limb countless times for around ten years before finally being able to pay back that money.
Once he'd cleared out his debts, his inclination for adventure dampened, and he settled down instead. He'd originally planned to live out his years in this calm and steady manner, but unexpectedly, misfortune came knocking at his door again. Thus the legendary story of him drawing his Black Blade to kill a noble and creating the peerless hero who endlessly terrified all the nobles in the world for almost 100 years came about.
