Overview

Ba Ûkîma Kâchyâ was founded durring the early 9th century, by Èlëm. The establishment of the new community went well, with no major obsticles durring construction.

Ba Ûkîma Kâchyâ was built using the conventions of Rattu durring the early 9th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Ba Ûkîma Kâchyâ is no diffrent. The city's buildings feature delicute timber framework hidden behind layer upon layer of finly ground plaster bleached to an almost glossy white sheen, with green clay tiled roofs and decorative brass-leafed trim. Even the smallest, poorest looking structures appear to be expencive thanks to the extreem elegence of the organic shapes and paterns going into their lofty, spire-y, vagly gothic designs. The more well off folks live in identicle homes, save for even shiner trim and a more whimsical appearance to their structures flowing forms.

Ba Ûkîma Kâchyâ is buildings are speckled and packed arround crampt paverstone streets with seemingly no patern to them. It appears as if the city's residents simply built streets as they pleased and squeazed buildings in wherever and howeave rpossible, creating an organic, frustrating to navigate, maze of a city. The city resides behind a palisade wall complete with battlments, a moat, and timber gatehouses with drawbridges. Ba Ûkîma Kâchyâ's robustly designed timber walls has sufferd soem light damage, reducing its function a little in some spots, but could almsot certainly preform as expected... Though some of the worse spots could lead to the loss of defenders lives if attackers identified the weaknesses ahead of time.

Right off the bat Ba Ûkîma Kâchyâ hits you in the face with its success. Everyone, even the peasants, are dressed in well made clothing. Every tool and implement you can see is finely made, and people will boast to you as obvious strangers of the wonders which can be found in their markets. More interestingly is a total lack of beggars, and plenty of new buildings are going up even as you speak. Somehow this city has come into quite a lot of wealth, and recently from the looks of things.
