Overview

Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà was founded durring the early 12th century in summer of the year 1111, by Aetina Èbrêgeg̈. The establishment of Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà 's construction back out of the project. Aetina Èbrêgeg̈ pushed on reguardles, and Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà was built using the conventions of Wareneese durring the early 12th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà is no diffrent. The town's buildings feature timber framed wooden shiethed or brick construction, which gives form to a very formalized, rational, expence effishent arcatectural style based on strictly symmetrical designs which universaly feature pitched roofs, shutters, and the occasional column or pilaster for a decorative touch.

Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà is is constructed arround a series of narrow cobblestone mainstreets which form overlapping circles, with smaller strait roads linking the circiles to eachother at varrious points. The town rests behind the absurdity that is a thick, timber braced, wall made of clay bricks. While visualy impressive and certainly an astetic, Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà 's wall provides no actual defence against siege equipment due to the choice of its cosntruction materials. Even nonexperts can tell the town is trying to impress rather than defend with its walls, towers, and gatehouses. Though admittedly, they do look nice... To primitive tribals who have never seen fortifications before. The town's political statment focused walls have recently undergone extensive repairs and renovations, such that the repairwork is imeadiently apparent and can be spotted due to the diffring ages of materials. One can't help but wonder what brought the need for those repairs to the town.

A look around Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà makes you worry someone might stab you in a dark ally for your boots. It’s not filthy, or dark, but the smiles seem strained, the locals seem to glare daggers in eachothers backs a little too much, and everyone is armed at all times. You may want to keep an eye on your valuables, and make sure you don’t wind up in any position of power.

Cultural Notes

Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà 's mayor's house was built using a different architectural style from the rest of the town. The style used is best known for the combined use of arcuated and trabeated construction, employing arches and constructed with post and lintel. The arch served as the style's chief structural element, with flanking columns serving as buttresses or decorations. While the general shape of their structures could be generously described as simplistic, the use of these arches and columns created a most distinct ascetic which is easily distinguishable on sight to armatures and experts alike.

History

In time immemorial, reportedly some time during the early 2nd century after an anomalously snowy winter, runoff from snow-melt caused Loch Ooze to overflow its banks and spill into River Paralams. The resulting flood was isolated to the area around Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà , which was swallowed by the waters for several days. Àrû Dachâ Kîchyà lost 232 people, 200 livestock, and 41 buildings in the disaster. The disaster is remembered as the Dread Drownings.
