Overview

Chyameya Dâra àchyæqà was founded durring the early 14th century in fall of the year 1324, by Connocanus. The establishment of Chyameya Dâra àchyæqà was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Chyameya Dâra àchyæqà's construction back out of the project. Connocanus pushed on reguardles, and Chyameya Dâra àchyæqà was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Chyameya Dâra àchyæqà was built using the conventions of Rattu durring the early 14th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Chyameya Dâra àchyæqà is no diffrent. The city's buildings feature waddle and daub construction with good timber frames and a stone foundation protected by thatched or shingled rooves. Most buildings with second floors are built in such a way as to overhang into the streets on the upper floors for more space, as building size seems to be the primary indicator of wealth within the community. Most buildings are not decorated with any integral features, but instead use ivy, flowers, and other natural elements in planters of on trellices to breathe life into the structure they grow upon.

Chyameya Dâra àchyæqà is buildings are grouped arround an odd layout of spacious carved bedrock streets, which seems to be based on an overlapping squair patern such that there are small squares at the cornor of every bigger square. Sometimes buildings exist in the smaller squaires, other times they are open spaces, or occupied by temporary structures. The city rests behind a set of well fortified walls, with gatehouses, watch towers, and battlments. Chyameya Dâra àchyæqà's walls are, howeaver, fashioned from stone and timber. While unorthadox, the design looks to be functional to a reasonable degree. With luck, the untested design will remain untested for years to come. The unusual yet seemingly effective fortifications have not been wellmaintained over the years, and while functional are in dire need of some loving care and perhapse light renovation.

A look around Chyameya Dâra àchyæqà is like looking into a university’s plaza on the day before an exam. People rush about to-and-fro. Discarded scrolls and quills are dotted around city. In spite of many locals discussing academic topics, there’s little sign of any organized groups for any of that talk. Infact, the city seems disordered in general with everything scattered helter skelter about.
